5 Tennessee Titans that could be traded before the deadline
By Will Lomas
3. Treylon Burks, Wide Receiver
This was only mentioned by Russini in her article, but it is an interesting conversation to have.
I still firmly believe that Burks was worth the 1st round pick and that he has just had bad injury luck. Turf toe, a concussion, and a knee injury (that the Tennessee Titans medical team allowed him to rush back from) have been his issues. None of those are dreaded "soft-tissue" injuries that Mike Vrabel hates.
He has had an explosive reception, explosive run, or a touchdown in 7 of his last 10 games and without his 70-yard catch against the L.A. Chargers this year the Tennessee Titans would be 1-5 with their only win coming against the hobbled Cincinnati Bengals.
If a playoff-caliber team called the Tennessee Titans and offered them a first-round pick then discussions make sense, but otherwise, the Titans are selling low on a young, cost-controlled wide receiver prospect that had a first-round grade by all 32 teams (or nearly all).
