Titans May Trade No. 5 Overall Pick

The Titans have received offers for the fifth overall pick and are contemplating a trade, a league source tells Adam Schefter of ESPN.com (on Twitter). It’s not immediately clear where the pick might be headed. The Titans have also had discussions about moving down from No. 18, Albert Breer of The MMQB tweets. Jon Robinson

In recent days, we’ve been hearing that multiple teams in the top half of the draft are looking to move down, but there hasn’t been a strong market for teams looking to move up the board. But, there have been a few clubs looking to climb. The Browns may want to move up from No. 12 in order to nab UNC quarterback Mitch Trubisky and satisfy team ownership. The Giants (No. 23) and Texans (No. 25) may want to trade up, but that would reportedly be to get a pick in the teens.

The Titans have been connected to Alabama’s O.J. Howard and Ohio State’s Marshon Lattimore at No. 5, but they might prefer to move down and build their draft stockpile instead. For his part, Titans general manager Jon Robinson admits it’s “50/50” as to whether his club actually uses both the No. 5 and No. 18 selections.
