2024 Tennessee Titans 7-round mock draft Fill a huge need then start dealing

The have been one of the NFL's most active teams this offseason.They handed out big contracts to wide receiver , center , running back Ante Zizic Jersey and cornerback in free agency. They traded for and extended lockdown corner .Taking advantage of the financial flexibility that comes with having , a quarterback on a rookie contract, Tenne see has been aggre sively constructing its roster the past few weeks.So what could that mean for draft time?ADVERTISEMENT The No. 7 overall pick headlines the Titans' eight selections in the 2024 NFL Draft. The others are: Nos. 38 (second round), 106 (fourth round), 146 (fifth round), 182 (sixth round), 227 (seventh round), 242 (seventh round) and 252 (seventh round).Left tackle is Tenne see's most-glaring need, but reinforcements are needed acro s both sides of the ball right tackle, safety, linebacker and defensive tackle among them.Here is FOX Sports' seven-round mock draft for the Titans:Round 1, No. 7 overall: Joe Alt, OT, Notre DameMeasurables: 6-foot-9, 321 poundsNotable stats: started 33 consecutive games at left tackleThe Titans' need for a franchise left tackle has been discu sed ad nauseam. In Alt, Tenne see would be getting an elite talent for Bill Callahan, one of football's most respected O-line gurus, to develop.As a three-year starter in a pro-style offense at Notre Dame, Alt has the pedigree to step in Day 1 to protect Levis' blindside. He's widely viewed as the best prospect in an offensive-tackle cla s that many in the scouting community believe is one of the best ever."While perhaps lacking the special' athletic traits to wow scouts, Alt may have the lowest floor of any prospect in this cla s, regardle s of position," FOX Sports NFL Draft Analyst Rob Rang in his offensive-tackle rankings Shawn Kemp Jersey piece. "Barring injury, Alt is a decade-long starter."Of the 84 FBS offensive tackles who played at least 317 snaps last season, Alt ranked No. 1 with just five pre sures allowed, according to Pro Football Focus.Check out some of Joe Alt's best plays last season 2024 NFL Draft prospect rankings | Top 10 QB prospects | Top 10 RB prospects | Top 10 WR prospects | Top 10 TE prospects | Top 10 OT prospects | Top 10 IOL prospects | Top 10 Edge prospects | Top 10 DT prospects | Joel Klatt's mock draftTRADE! The Titans move back in the draft, trading the 38th pick (second round) to the Bengals for Nos. 49 (second round) and 97 (third round).Round 2, No. 49 overall (via Cincinnati Bengals): Adisa Isaac, Edge, Penn StateMeasurables: 6-foot-4, 247 pounds2023 stats: 6.5 sacks, 27 tackles (13.5 for lo s), 1 FFThe Titans lost veteran in free agency, and have underwhelming depth on the edge behind and , who has been at his best as a situational pa s rusher. Tenne see needs a young pa s rusher to groom as a future starter.At Penn State, Isaac was a beneficiary of having fellow top prospect on the opposite side, but he's a standout in his own right. Isaac is lauded for his length, athleticism and motor, which on paper makes him a strong complement for the likes of Landry and superstar defensive tackle . He had 6.5 sacks and 13.5 tackles for the last season.Round 3, No. 97 overall (via Cincinnati Bengals):Javon Baker, WR, UCFMeasurables: 6-foot-1, 202 pounds2023 stats: 52 receptions for 1,139 yards and 7 TDsDon't be surprised if the Titans target a receiver in the top 100, despite the addition of Ridley. Tenne see has a dearth of young talent at the position. Ridley and are 29 and 31 years old, respectively. Through two seasons, has been a disappointment as a first-round pick.Baker led the Big 12 in receiving yards last season. Of wide receivers who saw at least 76 targets, he led the FBS with 21.9 yards per catch. Plus, he played inside and out at UCF, so head coach Brian Callahan will be able to move him around.Round 4, No. 106 overall: Jeremiah Trotter Jr., LB, ClemsonMeasurables: 6-foot, 228 pounds2023 stats: 88 tackles (15 for lo s), 5.5 sacks, 2 FFs, 2 INTs, 7 PBUsThe Titans added . in free agency, but a gaping hole Tristan Thompson Jersey at inside linebacker remains in the wake of 's departure in free agency. Tenne see's top returners at the spot are and , undrafted free agents from the past couple of seasons.Trotter, who comes from NFL bloodlines (his father was a four-time Pro Bowl linebacker with the ), would bring much-needed playmaking to the middle of Dennard Wilson's defense.Last season, Trotter led Clemson in tackles (88) and tackles for lo s (15), also adding 5.5 sacks, six pa s breakups, two forced fumbles and two interceptions (including a pick-six). He's one of just 14 FBS players in the past 20 years to record at least 10 sacks, four interceptions, three forced fumbles and multiple pick-sixes in his college career.Now consider that the Titans had just 14 takeaways last season, second-worst in the league.RJ Young reacts to new CFP structure, Clemson petitioning to leave Isaac Okoro Jersey ACC Round 5, No. 146 overall: Jaden Crumedy, DT, Mi si sippi StateMeasurables: 6-foot-4, 301 pounds2023 stats: 35 tackles (3.5 for lo s), 2.5 sacksTenne see added a starting-caliber defensive tackle in free agency in to pair with Simmons, but additional depth is needed. The room is rounded out by a combination of ex-sixth-round picks and undrafted free agents: , , , and . A talent upgrade is needed.Crumedy would bring to Nashville plenty of experience from the highest level of college football. He was a four-year starter at Mi si sippi State, having played in 53 career games, including 47 starts. He ended his college career with 39 straight starts.TRADE! Tenne see sends two seventh-round picks, Nos. 227 and 252, to Minnesota for No. 177, the first selection of the sixth round.Round 6, No. 177 overall (via Minnesota Vikings): Kitan Oladapo, S, Oregon StateMeasurables: 6-foot-2, 216 pounds2023 stats: 74 tackles (3.0 for lo s), 2 INTs, 1 sack, 1 FF, 8 PBUsSafety is another spot on Tenne see's roster that would benefit from an injection of youth. Don't rule out a free-agent addition plenty of top safeties remain available, including , and but there's a lack of depth behind entrenched starter and , who has played plenty of nickel for Tenne see.Oladapo is viewed as a prototypical strong safety, meaning he may lurk primarily around the line of scrimmage as a pro, but he flashed enough ball skills in college to warrant interest from Wilson, a defensive backs specialist.Round 6, No. 182 overall: Tyrone Tracy Jr., RB, PurdueMeasurables: 5-foot-11, 209 pounds2023 stats: 113 carries for 716 yards and 8 TDsWith gone and set to take on elevated running back responsibilities in 2024, the Titans will need a new primary kick returner.Tracy, who'll be an older rookie at 24, was second in the Big Ten last season with 408 kick return yards, including a 98-yard kickoff return touchdown.Offensively, he'd bring the versatility out of the backfield that Brian Callahan covets. Tracy was a full-time running back for the first time last season, when he led the Big Ten with 127.4 all-purpose yards per game.What does Derrick Henry signing mean for the Ravens? Round 7, No. 242 overall(via Philadelphia Eagles): Dylan McMahon, C Dylan Windler Jersey , NC StateMeasurables: 6-foot-3, 299 pounds2023 stats: 11 appearancesMcMahon has plenty of athletic upside, making him a potential project for Bill Callahan. He had the second-highest athletic score among all centers at the 2024 NFL Scouting Combine.McMahon played center and guard at NC State.Ben Arthur is the AFC South reporter for FOX Sports.
