Titans Looking To Trade Out Of No. 29

The Titans are making calls to trade out – and down from – the No. 29 pick, Dianna Russini of ESPN.com tweets. The Titans are looking for offensive line help, but they might be getting the feeling that their preferred targets won’t be there at the back end of the first round.

The top four tackles in this year’s class will almost certainly be off the board by the Titans’ turn. The next tier, according to most insiders, starts with Boise State’s Ezra Cleveland. He, too, could be off the board, with interest from the Vikings, Jaguars, and Browns. The Titans reportedly like Louisiana’s Robert Hunt as well, but they might prefer to pad their picks instead of waiting to find out.

The front office has reportedly been doing their homework on offensive lineman throughout the offseason. Their need for extra depth was accentuated when they lost Jack Conklin hours into free agency.

It makes sense for the Titans to move back and pick up some extra assets, as the organization is sitting with seven draft picks. However, three of those picks are in the seventh round.
