James Pearce. Jr | EDGE | Tennessee

EDGE is an obvious long-term need after GM Ran Carthon failed to replace Denico Autry in free agency. The Titans will rely on situational rusher Arden Key to play a larger role opposite Harold Landry this season. Rashad Weaver and Jaylen Harrell don't exactly make for a strong group of rotational pass rushers behind the starters.

Carthon and his scouts don't have to travel far to watch a dominant pass rusher. Tennessee Volunteers EDGE James Pearce Jr. is a heat-seeking missile. Though listed at a slightly undersized 242 pounds, Pearce Jr. possesses legit burst off the edge with dominant length, traits that led to him recording 10 sacks and 14.5 tackles for loss last season.
