The Bleacher Nation NFL 2023 Mock Draft will be a running mock draft that spans between now and round one of the NFL Draft. Each of the 31 picks (Miami forfeited their first-round pick due to tampering) will get a dedicated post. Here’s how it’ll work:
The Titans are on the clock in the Bleacher Nation NFL Mock Draft …
The Pick Is In
T Paris Johnson Jr. — Ohio State
The Fit
The Titans need help on the offensive line, and (former Ohio State player and coach) Mike Vrabel selects Paris Johnson Jr. ܫto fill the need at No. 11.
The Titans are among teams that may trade up to No. 3 with the Cardinals, but this exercise has nꦍo trades, so the Titans land the Ohio 🌌State tackle.
Scouting Report
Paris Johnson Jr. is the best offensive tackle in the draft on most big boards, including . Brugler calls Johnson “quick out his stance with the movement skills to mirror pass rushers around the arc or show off his pulling range in the run game.”
Brugler also notes that Johnson must replace his bad hits with more trust in hi🍸s techniq☂ue at the next level.
Johnson blocks with light feet and great movement skills. He’s quick with great lateral quickness abd can match speed with edge rushers and has great length. He pairs his length and quickness with great anticipation and flexibility.
Final Thoughts: If the Titans stay put at No. 11, and offensive lineman seems like a no-brainer for Tennessee. The Titans🎃 land a good one here.
