5. Tennessee Titans- Tim Williams, Edge, Alabama

Tennessee has back to back picks in this mock draft thanks to last year’s trade with the Los Angeles Rams. Here they grab an explosive edge rusher in Alabama’s Tim Williams. His quickness off the edge makes him a nightmare for opposing quarterbacks.

6. Tennessee Titans (via LA)- Reuben Foster, LB, Alabama

The second pick gives the Titans a defensive leader and playmaker in Reuben Foster. This is a 4-down linebacker who makes plays from sideline to sideline. He’s a dynamic defender because of his ability to hold up in pass coverage, take on blocks and protect the edge.

7. Tampa Bay Buccaneers- Malik McDowell, DL, Michigan State

Tampa Bay has to improve the overall talent on the defensive side of the ball. A physical presence like Malik McDowell would help take some pressure off of Gerald McCoy and beef up the interior of the line. However, their ideal pick might be Michigan’s Jabrill Peppers.

8. New York Jets- Christian McCaffrey, RB, Stanford

The Jets will head into next season with a new quarterback under center. It would be a good idea to surround that quarterback with a wide array of playmakers. Stanford’s Christian McCaffrey would be a great fit in Chan Gailey’s offensive attack.
