Tennessee Titans draft picks 2021: Round-by-round selections

Here is a 2021 NFL draft pick-by-pick breakdown for the Tennessee Titans:

Round 1 (No. 22 overall) - Caleb Farley, CB, Virginia Tech: An opt-out in 2020 who's undergone multiple back surgeries, Farley could nevertheless be a huge steal for Tennessee assuming his injury issues are behind him. Farley has great ball skills and may have more upside than any corner in this draft. He should also plug a gap in Nashville after the Titans bid adieu to Malcolm Butler and Adoree' Jackson.

Round 2 (53) - Dillon Radunz, OT, North Dakota State: He took care of Trey Lance for the Bison and represents the Titans' latest whack at right tackle after they let All-Pro Jack Conklin walk after the 2019 season and wasted a first-round pick on Isaiah Wilson last year. A left tackle in college, Radunz also provides a nice measure of versatility. Ryan Tannehill and Derrick Henry say thank you. Draft tracker

Round 3 (92, from Packers) - Monty Rice, LB, Georgia: Tennessee gets needed athleticism at the second level. Rice showed he was a sub-4.6 player at the Dawgs' pro day and should crack the rotation for a defense that had issues last year, especially getting off the field. Draft tracker
