2015 NFL Draft: Tennessee Titans Seven-Round Mock Draft, Early-April Edition

Tennessee Titans Introduce Ken Whisenhunt — The Tennessee Titans head into the 2015 NFL Draft with the No. 2 overall pick and plenty of needs for their franchise. Here's an early-April seven-round mock for what they may do with each of their choices in a couple of weeks.

The Tennessee Titans head into the 2015 NFL Draft with the No. 2 overall pick and plenty of needs for their franchise. Here's an early-April seven-round mock for what they may do with each of their choices in a couple of weeks.

Round 1, No. 2 Overall - Marcus Mariota, QB, Oregon

Washington Redskins, Marcus Mariota, 2015 NFL Draft

Round 1, No. 2 Overall - Marcus Mariota, QB, Oregon

Washington Redskins, Marcus Mariota, 2015 NFL Draft — The quarterback position is far too important in today's NFL for the Titans to pass on Mariota. Even if he's not ready to start right away, Tennessee has to take him. He has his imperfections, but in terms of his intelligence and work ethic, he's everything a franchise would want in a quarterback, not to mention his size, arm strength and athleticism. Mariota is far from a sure thing, but the Titans need a quarterback and can't pass him up.

Round 2, No. 33 Overall - Jake Fisher, OT, Oregon

Round 2, No. 33 Overall - Jake Fisher, OT, Oregon

If the Titans take Mariota, they might as well take his Oregon teammate to fill the void they have at right tackle, where Fisher started for the Ducks two of the past three seasons. Fisher has long arms, strong hands and a great work ethic, which help to counter his average athleticism. Having Fisher fills a hole for Tennessee and should help Mariota both on and off the field, making this a wise selection at the top of Round 2.

Round 3, No. 66 Overall - Cody Prewitt, S, Ole Miss

Round 3, No. 66 Overall - Cody Prewitt, S, Ole Miss

Cody Prewitt — Safety was a huge weakness for Tennessee last year, but picking up Prewitt to pair with veteran Da'Norris Searcy should help a great deal. Prewitt has good size for the position, not to mention excellent speed and instincts. He excels in the center field role, and after being one of the top safeties in the SEC over the past couple of years, he should be able to make a quick transition to the NFL and start for the Titans right away.

Round 4, No. 100 Overall - David Cobb, RB, Minnesota

Round 4, No. 100 Overall - David Cobb, RB, Minnesota

David Cobb Minnesota — If Bishop Sankey can't improve in his second NFL season, the Titans are going to need some reinforcements in the backfield. Cobb isn't a game-breaker, but he has a prototypical running back build. He has the ability to be pick up positive yards on every carry and be a productive and reliable back. He'll never be a star, but he should be able to contribute in the NFL and would be an upgrade over the Titans' rushing game from 2014.

Round 5, No. 138 Overall - Andy Gallik, C, Boston College

Andy Gallik, New Orleans Saints

Round 5, No. 138 Overall - Andy Gallik, C, Boston College

Andy Gallik, New Orleans Saints — The Titans could use an upgrade at center, and Gallik would be a solid option, especially this late in the draft. He was a four-year starter at Boston College and one of the top centers in the ACC the past two seasons. His skill set and athleticism are average, but his intelligence and instincts help him to stand out, which should make him a solid if unspectacular NFL center.

Round 6, No. 177 Overall - Vince Mayle, WR, Washington State

Vince Mayle Washington State

Round 6, No. 177 Overall - Vince Mayle, WR, Washington State

Vince Mayle Washington State — The Titans have a few nice receivers, but they could use more depth at that position. Mayle has good size, hands and footwork, and he's coming off an incredibly productive senior season at Washington State in 2014 where he had 106 catches. That kind of productivity can't be ignored, as Mayle should at least be a competent third or fourth wide receiver in the NFL.

Round 6, No. 208 Overall - Jeff Luc, LB, Cincinnati

Jeff Luc Cincinnati

Round 6, No. 208 Overall - Jeff Luc, LB, Cincinnati

Jeff Luc Cincinnati — The Titans could use some extra depth at middle linebacker, which is where Luc fits best. He's a little undersized, but he has a compact and well-built body, which should give him the strength and physicality necessary to hold his own in the box. Luc may not be a three-down linebacker in the NFL, but he can play most of the snaps on defense and contribute on special teams, making him a valuable pick at this stage in the draft.
