Louisville Cardinals wide receiver Chris Bell (0) got close to the end zone but officials ruled against his touchdown after a replay review as the Cards take on Clemson in the first half at L&N Stadium Friday, Nov. 14, 2025.

As the Tennessee Titans figure out who their next head coach is going to be, this organization is going to need to hit the ground running this offseason. It’s no secret that the Titans roster is pretty poor right now, with holes on both sides of the football as things stand. Both free agency and the 2026 NFL Draft will be huge in order for the team to try and take the next step toward, and hopefully get back to some sort of consistent winning. 

The NFL Draft will especially be big for Tennessee, attempting to reload the roster with younger and cheaper talent. In my latest 7-round 2026 NFL mock draft, I attempted to provide quarterback Cam Ward with increased support, and upgrade the ability for the Titans to cover and get after the quarterback. Both were accomplished in a big way. 

Tennessee Titans mock draft

Round 1, Pick 4: David Bailey, EDGE, Texas Tech 

The Titans desperately need to upgrade its pass rush. There may not be a better option in this class than Bailey. The former Stanford standout is an impressive blend of length, explosiveness, and closing speed. 

Round 2, Pick 35: Chris Bell, WR, Louisville 

Some fans will see Bell plays and just think back to the failure of Treylon Bucks, but he is a much different athlete. On top of having tremendous straight line speed and YAC upside, Bell also brings some very unique upside as a route runner to the table. 

Round 3, Pick 66: Connor Lew, OC, Auburn 

If not for the ACL injury during the season, Lew has enough talent to challenge for first round capital. He is an extremely smooth mover who continues to add power to his frame. There’s some Pro Bowl upside to Lew’s game if he continues to develop once back healthy. 

Round 4, Pick 101: Will Lee III, CB, Texas A&M

Lee is one of the better press man cornerbacks in the 2026 class. His long speed is just average, but Lee is extremely physical, pesky, and has some underrated change of direction skills. 

Round 5, Pick 140: Demond Claiborne, RB, Wake Forest 

Even though Claiborne isn’t the biggest or most powerful running back you will find, his speed and explosiveness offer intriguing upside as a change of pace runner. In an outside zone heavy running scheme, the former Demon Deacon star has a chance to become a very productive football player. 

Round 5, Pick 142: Chase Roberts, WR, BYU

Roberts has been one of the more underrated wide receivers in college football over the last couple of seasons. He’s long, solidly athletic, and does all the little things to project as a solid rotational pass catcher on the next level. 

Round 6, Pick 183: George Gumbs Jr., EDGE, Florida 

The former Northern Illinois standout is an intriguing designated pass rusher on the next level. Gumbs didn’t have the 2025 season that many hoped for, but he still offers some interesting upside getting after the passer. 

Round 7, Pick 238: Collin Wright, CB, Stanford 

Wright is an extremely experienced outside corner who plays with a high level of intelligence and consistency. While he isn’t the flashiest athlete of all time, Wright’s skill set should provide upside to backup multiple positions in the secondary.
