The Tennessee Titans are one of the early options in the 2023 NFL Draft to target offensive line.
With 24 hours until the first round, reports continue to emerge about top prospects. One offensive tackle that is receiving plenty of praise is Ohio State's Paris Johnson Jr. He is garnering tons of respect among teams and moving up boards.
Ohio State left tackle Paris Johnson Jr. has been impressing teams and possibly moving up the draft board. NFL Network's James Palmer reported Wednesday that the offensive tackle made a good impression on his official visit with the Philadelphia Eagles, who hold the No. 10 overall pick. Palmer added that there are other teams with earlier picks than Philadelphia who also liked what they saw out of Johnson, meaning that if Eagles general manager Howie Roseman is set on acquiring the tackle, he could have to explore trading up even higher in the first round to grab him. According to Palmer, over the last few days Roseman has been doing just that, talking with various teams to see what trading up would involve if Philly decided to make a move. — Around the NFL Staff
Johnson Jr. is seemingly going to go somewhere in the top ten. The Titans would need to make a move up to secure him. Not to mention, another OT prospect could join him in Darnell Wright or Peter Skoronski. Both have seen their fair shares of the top ten in mock drafts.
The Titans will need to keep their eyes peeled if they are interested in the top talent at OT in the first round.
