Apr 28, 2021 Tennessee Titans general manager Jon Robinson gave an overview of how he sees the 2021 NFL Draft in terms of position groups this week, particularly at areas of need for his team. Here is a full rundown of he said about offensive line, cornerbacks, edge rushers and tight ends: • Offensive line is deeper than defensive line: “I think the offensive line group probably has a little bit more depth top to bottom maybe than the D-line group. There are some good players in the defensive line group, but I feel like the volume, the supply of players that’s in that offensive line gr...

DAY ONE OPTIONS None. The only tight end who looks worthy of a first-round pick is Florida’s Kyle Pitts, and it is highly unlikely that he will make it out of the top 10. In fact, many draft analysts believe Pitts will be the first pick for former Titans offensive coordinator Arthur Smith as head coach of the Atlanta Falcons (fourth overall). DAY TWO OPTIONS Hunter Long, Boston College (6-5, 254): This is a player coach Mike Vrabel no doubt knows well because he was a college teammate of Vrabel’s son, Tyler, starting right tackle. Long led all FBS tight ends in targets (89) and receptions...

Titans Draft Board: DAY ONE OPTIONS Trevon Moehrig, TCU (6-2, 220): Moehrig will likely be the only safety taken in the first round this year, and many mock drafts suggest he will be on the board when the Titans are on the clock at No. 22. He led all FBS safeties in pass breakups in each of the past two seasons and had seven career interceptions.

DAY ONE OPTIONS Rashawn Slater, Northwestern (6-3, 305): Slater probably won’t be around when the Titans pick at No. 22, so it’d likely cost general manager Jon Robinson to get him. Arguably the best tackle prospect in the draft, Slater opted out of this past college football season. But he started 37 of 38 games in the other three seasons. He has played both tackle positions and consistently troubled talented Big Ten pass rushers, including rising star defensive end Chase Young (Ohio State), who Washington selected at No. 2 overall last year. Christian Darrisaw, Virginia Tech (6-5, 322...

Feb. 19, 1898: The Chattanooga Daily Times, with a dateline of Johnson City, reported on a fire at Buffalo Mountain. “The Buffalo mountains (sic) near this place have been on fire for two days and the citizens along the foot of the range have been exposed to damage by the fire raining down on them and consuming fencing and whatever else may be on the outskirts of their farms.” Feb. 19, 1914: Readers of the Nashville Banner read of infrastructure improvements taking place in Johnson City. With a dateline from Johnson City, readers learned, “The Trinidad Paving Company of Clevela...
