2015 NFL Draft: 5 Prospects Tennessee Titans Should Target in First Round

It's hard to figure out what the Tennessee Titans want to do with the second overall pick because it's hard to trust anything they are saying. A lot of reports suggest that the Titans want to trade out of the pick. If they keep it, they will have plenty of ways to go with the pick. Here are five players they should target with the No. 2 pick.

Kevin White would certainly be a surprise at No. 2, but he is talented enough to be considered. White had a great combine to follow up his impressive senior season. The Titans already have a couple of young receivers, but Kendall Wright is the only one that has shown any promise.

If the Titans decide they want a versatile edge pass rusher than they will likely call Dante Fowler's name with the second pick. He has all of the attributes of an NFL pass rusher and is athletic enough to drop into coverage on some plays. Like White, it would be a bit of a surprise for Tennessee to go with Fowler, considering the other players available.

Regardless of what Tampa Bay does, the Titans will be staring at a top-level quarterback when they are on the clock. There have been reports that they would take Mariota if he is sitting there at No. 2, but they might just be saying that to lure teams into trading up. Sticking with Mariota wouldn't be a bad idea considering their current quarterback situation.

2. Jameis Winston, QB, Florida State

Most people believe Winston will go to the Buccaneers at No. 1, but anything could happen until it's actually official. I think that the Titans would love to see Tampa Bay pass on Winston. He would be a great fit for what Ken Whisenhunt wants to do offensively.

1. Leonard Williams, DT, USC

Leonard Williams might be the safest pick in the draft. He might also be the best player in the draft. With that said, it seems logical that the Titans would take him at No. 2. Williams will be able to slide into the starting lineup from day one and cause havoc for offenses. It won't be as exciting as one of the quarterbacks, but Leonard Williams should be the No. 1 target for the Titans.
