The Tennessee Titans will be picking eleventh in the 2023 NFL Draft.
They will have a plethora of options to choose from if they choose to sit at that position.
Offensive line is the front runner choice for the position they should attack in the first round.
They need another starting offensive tackle. Taylor Lewan could be back, but even if he is, the Titans still need another starting OT.
They could go in a different direction, but there are multiple impressive prospects that deserve a top twelve selection in this draft class.
Broderick Jones, Georgia
Jones is highly regarded as the best offensive lineman prospect in this year's class. He may not last until eleven, but if he does, the Titans should jump on the opportunity.
Jones has been a massive part of the Georgia offense that is playing for a National Championship.
His size doesn't prevent him from being an impressive athlete at offensive tackle. Jones is a smooth mover, but he is also extremely powerful.
His hand placement can be a bit inconsistent, but that will most likely improve at the next level with more coaching.
Jones has very high upside, and the Titans would make plenty of sense for him.
Paris Johnson Jr., Ohio State
Johnson Jr. is yet another offensive tackle on a top team in the country.
Johnson had his inconsistencies early on with Ohio State, but his game really rounded out this season for the Buckeyes. Now, he is projected to go in the top 20 picks of this year's draft.
Johnson Jr. looms at 6'6" at 315 pounds. He is an explosive mover at the tackle position, and he can maul defenders consistently in the running game.
That would make a lot of sense for the Titans and Derrick Henry.
His length helps him a ton with edge rushers that attempt to use speed to their advantage. He needs to work on his blocking against finesse moves, but that can be said about most offensive tackle prospects.
Johnson Jr. was also a leader for Ohio State's offense and is very involved in the community already.
Both of these players would project to start for the Titans right off the bat. They will certainly be on their radar in the coming months.
