6. Rashaan Evans (22nd overall in 2018)

The Titans drafted Rashaan Evans 22nd overall in 2018 and he was decent early in his career. In his second season, he had 111 tackles and finished the league in the top-25 in tackles that year. The reason I have him lower on the list is that he only spent four years in Tennessee before moving onto Atlanta and later Dallas.

5. Corey Davis (5th overall in 2017)

With the fifth pick in the 2017 NFL Draft, the Titans surprised some people by drafting Corey Davis out of Central Michigan. Coming out of a smaller school could have worked against Davis but the Titans took a chance and added him to their offense.

Davis wasn't bad necessarily but his rookie year left something to be desired. The 2018 season was when Davis started to show what he could do, finishing with 891 yards and four touchdowns and he put together the best year of his career in 2020 with 984 yards and five trips into the end zone.

Davis signed with the Jets in 2021 and played two seasons there before retiring at the age of 28 years old.
