Titans' Draft Strategy: Protecting Ward, Boosting Defense

It's March 17th, here's your NFL news in 2 minutes, subscribe to stay locked in all season.

The Tennessee Titans are shaping up their roster after a strong start to free agency where

they added at least 8 players who could start right.

Now, with the 2026 NFL draft still over a month away, the latest projection shows a 53

man roster that's solid in spots, but wide open for upgrades.

Three names like quarterback Cam Ward, anchor the offense, while defensive star Jeffrey

Simmons bolsters the line.

Free agency brought in veterans across the board, but changes are likely at quarterback

with a 70% chance of tweaks, possibly trading will.

Levis now then Mitchell Trebuski is a board.

Running backs Tony Pollard, Ty J Spears, and Kaleil Mullings form a reliable group at

50% change odds, and Titans looks set with just a.

20% shake-up expected.

Saints and analysts see the biggest needs of front-on-office, where offensive tackles

face 85% change probability and interior linemen, a whopping 95% due to unproven death

beyond Peter Skaronsky.

This reflects the team's push to protect Ward and build a stronger run game after recent

struggles.

On defense, the interior line with Simmons and John Franklin Meyers is locked in at

only 5% change, but edge rushers and cornerback scream.

For help with 95% odds of additions, especially eyeing that number 4 draft pick for a top-pass

rusher, safeties and inside linebackers have moderate flux around 25% to 50%.

Specialists like Punter, Tommy Townsend round out a stable group with minimal expected

moves.

Overall, the Titans front-office has plenty of flexibility heading into the draft to

fill gaps and contend in the AFC South.
