NASHVILLE — The Titans are scheduled to have nine total picks in the
81st Annual National Football League Player Selection Meeting, which
commences on April 28 in Chicago, Ill.
The NFL will conduct the seven-round draft from Auditorium
Theatre of Roosevelt University in Chicago, while Titans personnel will be headquartered at Saint Thomas Sports Park in Nashville.
The opening Thursday night of the draft (7 p.m. CT) will consist entirely of the 31 picks in the first round. Rounds 2 and 3 are set
for Friday, April 29, beginning at 6 p.m. CT, and the draft concludes with
Rounds 4-7 on Saturday, April 30, at 11 a.m. CT. The current three-day format was unveiled
for the first time in 2010.
On April 14, two weeks before the start of the draft, the Titans and new general manager Jon Robinson engineered one of the biggest trades in franchise history. Originally the
owners of the No. 1 pick, the Titans dealt the selection to the Los Angeles Rams along with a
fourth-round pick (113th overall) and a sixth-rounder (177th overall). In exchange, the Titans
received the 15th overall pick in the first round, two second-rounders (43rd and 45th overall),
a third-rounder (76th overall) and the Rams’ first- and third-round picks in 2017.
The Titans hold an additional pick in each of Rounds 2 (33rd overall), 3 (64th overall), 5 (140th overall), 6 (193rd overall) and 7 (222nd overall). They picked up their current
sixth-rounder by trading guard Andy Levitre in September 2015.
The Titans’ deal with the Rams was Robinson’s second trade in his brief tenure as general manager. The first involved a high-profile player and draft choices. In March, the Titans
agreed with the Philadelphia Eagles to swap fourth-rounders (Titans’ 100th overall pick for
the Eagles’ 113th pick) in order for Tennessee to obtain veteran running back DeMarco Murray. Subsequently, the fourth-round pick from the Eagles was used in the Titans’ trade with
the Rams.
ON THE AIR AND THE WEB
Fans can watch the draft in its entirety on NFL Network and ESPN/ESPN 2. Radio
listeners can tune to the Titans Radio Network, including Nashville flagship 104.5 The Zone.
Titans Radio will feature special draft programming throughout the weekend, including gavel-to-gavel coverage of the first round.
TitansOnline.com, the official website of the Tennessee Titans, will provide up-to-theminute information on the team’s selections and live draft coverage, including press conferences with Robinson, head coach Mike Mularkey and other members of the organization.
Additionally, fans can follow the team through its social media platforms, including
Facebook (facebook.com/Titans), Twitter (@Titans), Instagram (@Titans) and Snapchat
(nfltitans). Social media users also are encouraged to use the hashtag #TitansDraft.
ROBINSON TO DIRECT FIRST DRAFT
Robinson was hired on January 14 after spending the last two seasons as director of
player personnel for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The Union City, Tenn., native also spent a
total of 12 years with the New England Patriots.
During his five years (2009–2013) as director of college scouting for the Patriots, Rob(continued on next page)
TitansOnline.com/MediaGuide
Tennessee Titans 2016 Draft Preview
inson contributed to the drafting of players such as wide receiver Julian
Edelman, defensive back Devin McCourty, tight end Rob Gronkowski,
tackle Nate Solder and defensive end Chandler Jones.
Robinson spent the next two seasons in Tampa Bay, and in 2015, the
Buccaneers received significant contributions from a number of draft picks,
including starting quarterback Jameis Winston, starting tackle Donovan
Smith, starting guard Ali Marpet and starting linebacker Kwon Alexander.
From the day the Titans hired Robinson until the first day of the draft,
he and his staff will have had 105 days to prepare. A large portion of that
time will have been spent watching and visiting with potential picks in a variety of venues, including the Senior Bowl in Mobile, Ala., the NFL Scouting
Combine in Indianapolis, on-campus pro days and individual workouts, and
finally prospect visits to Saint Thomas Sports Park in Nashville.
Meanwhile, Robinson’s impact on the 2016 Titans already has been
felt in the acquisition of veteran talent. On March 9, he finalized the trade
for Murray, who in five NFL seasons has made it to two Pro Bowls and won
a rushing crown in 2014 with 1,845 yards. The Titans also have added several significant free agents to the roster, including cornerback Brice McCain
(formerly of the Miami Dolphins), center Ben Jones (Houston Texans), wide
receiver Rishard Matthews (Dolphins), quarterback Matt Cassel (Dallas
Cowboys), linebacker Sean Spence (Pittsburgh Steelers), cornerback Antwon Blake (Steelers) and safety Rashad Johnson (Arizona Cardinals).
TITANS PICKING 15TH IN FIRST ROUND FOLLOWING TRADE
In determining draft order, non-playoff clubs select first through 20th,
according to the reverse order of their standing (i.e., the team with the
worst record receives the first pick, the team with the second-worst record
Page 2 of 47
receives the second pick, etc.). Playoff teams select 21st through 32nd
based on their level of advancement in the postseason.
The Titans, along with the Cleveland Browns, were the two teams in
2015 to win three games, the fewest in the league. Therefore, with the exception of traded picks, the Titans and Browns were slotted with alternating
first and second picks in each round, meaning the Titans were assigned the
second spot in the second round, the first pick in the third round, the second
pick in the fourth round, etc. However, because of trades, the Titans no
longer have their original choices in the first, fourth and sixth rounds.
The Titans/Oilers have picked 15th overall on four prior occasions, most
recently 2002, when they nabbed defensive tackle Albert Haynesworth.
They originally had the 14th pick in 2002 but traded back one spot and secured the University of Tennessee defensive tackle. Haynesworth went on
to play seven seasons with the club, totaling 24 career sacks and helping
the team to three top 10 finishes in overall defense during his career. Prior
to Haynesworth, the club used the 15th overall pick on linebacker Lamar
Lathon in 1990, running back Don Hardeman in 1975 and linebacker Ron
Pritchard in 1969.
In 49 drafts since 1967, when the NFL and AFL agreed to a “common
draft,” there has been one 15th overall pick elected to the Pro Football Hall of
Fame, defensive lineman Alan Page (1967, Minnesota Vikings). A total of 16
of the 49 players (33 percent) have made at least one Pro Bowl appearance,
led by Page (nine Pro Bowls), defensive back Dennis Smith (1981, Denver
Broncos, six Pro Bowls) and wide receiver Anthony Miller (1988, San Diego
Chargers, five Pro Bowls).
Other recent 15th picks include the following: linebacker Derrick Johnson (2005, Kansas City Chiefs), linebacker Lawrence Timmons (2007,
Pittsburgh Steelers), tackle Branden Albert (2008, Kansas City Chiefs),
linebacker Brian Cushing (2009, Houston Texans), defensive end Jason
Pierre-Paul (2010, New York Giants), center Mike Pouncey (2011, Miami
Dolphins), defensive end Bruce Irvin (2012, Seattle Seahawks), safety
Kenny Vaccaro (2013, New Orleans Saints) and linebacker Ryan Shazier
(2014, Pittsburgh Steelers). Last year, the San Diego Chargers chose running back Melvin Gordon with the 15th selection.

TITANS ON DRAFT DAY
TITANS DRAFT HEADQUARTERS
During the draft, Titans decision makers are situated in Nashville at
Saint Thomas Sports Park, located in MetroCenter. Titans executives, personnel staff and coaches are positioned at a long conference table in the
draft room, located on the second floor of the team’s facility. Members of
the local media also station themselves at the Nashville headquarters.
Inside the rectangular-shaped draft room, the four white, magnetic
walls are lined from top to bottom with information on NFL personnel. Every team’s current roster is displayed on two walls, broken down by position
within each club. On another wall, hundreds of draft-eligible players are
divided among position groups and ranked by grades, which place number
values on the team’s final assessment of the players. A “Top 150” board
ranks draftees regardless of position. Finally, another of the room’s walls is
divided in half, listing the order of draft picks by team (sometimes called the
“trade grid”) and by round.
With each draft selection, the media has access to the player and
one of the team’s primary decision makers. Typically after each pick, head
coach Mike Mularkey and/or general manager Jon Robinson are made
available to answer questions in the Saint Thomas Sports Park auditorium.
Additionally, the media is placed on a conference call with each of the players picked.
At the conclusion of each day of the draft, Robinson and/or Mularkey
are available to reporters. The team also typically brings its top one or two
selections to team headquarters to meet with reporters during draft weekend.
The Titans draft class is brought together for the first time at Saint
Thomas Sports Park, along with the prospects signed as undrafted free
agents, less than two weeks after the draft concludes. On May 9, rookies
may begin taking part in the team’s offseason training program, as long as
their respective universities have concluded final exams. Also, NFL rules
allow for a three-day rookie minicamp, during which time the players go
through positional meetings, practice and media interviews. The Titans
rookie camp is slated for the weekend of May 13.
WHO’S IN CHICAGO?
Representatives of all 32 NFL clubs will be present at Selection Square
in Chicago. The representatives are in constant phone contact with their
clubs, who instruct the representatives to turn in a card with the selected
player’s name on it.
The Titans are represented by Anthony Pastrana, the team’s video
director who is entering his 18th season with the Titans, and Joey Barranco, the assistant equipment manager who is going into his 17th campaign
with the club.
TYPICAL TIMELINE FOR EACH PICK
The following is a typical series of events for each draft pick the Titans
make:
¾¾ The Titans’ personnel staff, coaches and other staff members are stationed in the draft room on the second floor of Saint Thomas Sports Park
in Nashville, monitoring the draft as their selection nears and updating
their draft board. The team has a separate, direct phone line dedicated
to each of the other 31 NFL clubs for use in discussing trades.
¾¾ The Titans go “on the clock” (10 minutes for Round 1, seven minutes
for Round 2, five minutes for Rounds 3-6, four minutes for Round 7 and
every compensatory pick) immediately following the announcement of
the previous team’s pick.
¾¾ After the organization decides upon the pick, Mike Mularkey calls the
player on the phone to inform him of the selection.
¾¾ Jon Robinson communicates the pick to the team’s draft representatives (Anthony Pastrana and Joey Barranco) at the Titans’ draft table
in Chicago.
Saint Thomas Sports Park, Nashville, Tenn.
¾¾ The team representatives in Chicago submit a card to NFL personnel
with the player’s name, school and position.
¾¾ During the first three rounds, the selection is announced at the Auditorium Theatre podium in Chicago. First-rounders are announced by NFL
commissioner Roger Goodell, and second-round picks are read by NFL
alumni. For Rounds 4-7 on Day 3, teams appoint a representative to
announce their picks from a location of the team’s choosing.
¾¾ Media at Saint Thomas Sports Park in Nashville receive bios and other
information on the selection and are placed on a conference call with
the player.
¾¾ Mularkey and/or Robinson meet with the media in the Saint Thomas
Sports Park auditorium to answer questions on the player who was just
selected.
¾¾ The process repeats itself until the end of the draft day. During the
second day, the team’s top pick is typically brought to Nashville to meet
with the media.

GENERAL MANAGER JON ROBINSON
WHAT THEY’RE SAYING ABOUT ROBINSON
Jon Robinson was hired as Titans general
manager on Jan. 14, 2016 after spending two years
as director of player personnel for the Tampa Bay
Buccaneers.
“As we visited with Jon and researched his
career, his proven track record for scouting talent,
leadership skills, and ability to build relationships
make him an ideal candidate to lead our football
operation,” said Amy Adams Strunk, Titans controlling owner and co-chairman of the board of directors. “Jon is a proud Tennessean who is excited
to be coming home, and we look forward to the future of our football team
under his leadership.”
Robinson arrived with a wide range of experience from working his
way up on the personnel side of the NFL. From 2014–2015, he served as
director of player personnel for the Buccaneers and oversaw both college
and pro departments as the team rebuilt its roster. The 2015 Buccaneers
draft class made a significant impact, including four rookie starters: quarterback Jameis Winston, tackle Donovan Smith, guard Ali Marpet and
linebacker Kwon Alexander.
“Our goal here is to win, bottom line,” Robinson said upon accepting
the new job. “That is a measuring stick that all franchises are measured
by. Mike (Mularkey) and I have an aligned vision of what we want this
team to look like. We want tough players, we want coachable players, we
want smart players and most importantly we want players with a team-first
attitude. My role here is to insure we find those players. I will coach the
personnel staff on the type of players that we want and identify the guys that
are true fits of what we are looking for in a Titan.”
Prior to joining Tampa Bay, Robinson spent 12 years with the New
England Patriots, including his last five years (2009-13) as the director of
college scouting. In the five years heading up their college scouting, the
Patriots added a number of key components to their roster that won the Super Bowl in 2014, including wide receiver Julian Edelman, defensive back
Devin McCourty, tight end Rob Gronkowski, tackle Nate Solder and defensive end Chandler Jones. He joined the Patriots as an area scout in
2002, a role he served for four seasons. Robinson then spent two years
(2006-07) as a regional scout, before being promoted to assistant director
of college scouting in 2008 and then director of college scouting in 2009. In
his time scouting for the Patriots the team won 10 division titles, four conference titles and two Super Bowls (2003, 2004).
“I was really most specifically on the college side as the college director (in New England). So my duties there were to organize all of the scouting of the college players in preparation for the draft and rookie free agency.
When I got to Tampa, I was really exposed to everything as it relates to the
day-to-day operations of running the football team, to the Monday meetings
with the trainer and (general manager) Jason (Licht), working through the
emergency list, the practice squad list, preparing for free agency, along with
overseeing the college draft. It really opened my eyes to everything that
goes on on a day-to-day basis, on a weekly basis, on a monthly basis that
an NFL team has to prep for.”
Robinson played three years at Southeast Missouri State as a defensive lineman after starting his college career at the Air Force Academy. Following his college career as a player, he spent one season (1998) coaching
at his alma mater and three years (1999-2001) coaching at Nicholls State.
A native of Union City, Tenn., Robinson and his wife, Jaimie, have two
daughters, Taylor and Bailey.
Steve Underwood, Titans president/CEO (press conference Jan. 18,
2016): “Jon Robinson is the product of the most extensive search for a
general manager in our club’s history. We are so impressed with Jon’s
experience, his vision and his focus on restoring our franchise to greatness.
We are persuaded fully that he will work with our staff and our coaches to
restore our franchise on and off the field and Amy (Adams Strunk) believes
that his talents and attitude are just what we need at this moment in time.”

Mike Mularkey, Titans head coach (press conference Jan. 18, 2016):
“We have had really good discussions for the vision we have for this football
team. For our fans, we believe we can bring a championship to this city with
the same vision. We have talked about it from day one of what it is going
to take and it is very similar to what Jon just said. You heard me say that
the first time I got in front of you when the coaching change took place. We
want smart, tough, physical players, coachable and accountable, and that is
what Jon and I will do. We will work together to find those players.”
Floyd Reese, former Titans general manager and former New England
Patriots executive (to TitansOnline.com Jan. 14, 2016): “You hear
coaches talk all the time about when you get down to the fourth down play,
there are certain guys that want the ball and other guys who might prefer
it go to someone else. Jon wanted the ball, and I always thought that was
something special about him.
“One of the biggest concerns I always had coming out of New England,
because Bill (Belichick) runs everything, is there’s not a lot of guys that have
a chance to make decisions, and when you get thrown into a GM situation
like this, making a decision is the hardest thing to do. … If you’ve never
done it, it is tough.
“One of the things I always liked about Jon is he was one of those guys that
wanted to tell you, he wanted to give you his opinion. He had an opinion,
and had reason and logic and something behind it. And I’m telling you, the
guy is smart.
“I think Amy (Adams Strunk) and Kenneth (Adams IV) and Steve (Underwood), and the people involved, they hit a home run with this one. Jon is
prepared, and is in the right spot. If you look at the things that are really
important for success, then you would say this is a great match.
“He’s an outstanding guy. When he got the job, the first thing he said was
‘I’m coming home.’ He is a Tennessee boy. He loves Tennessee. And anybody that gets a chance to go back home and work a job of this caliber back
home, it’s a daily incentive. Every morning you’re thinking my mom and dad
are going to see what I am doing or my friends are going to see what I am
doing …

guy. I am happy for him and I know a lot of people are, too.”
“Jon will be outgoing. Coming back here and getting back in this environment, he’ll be more accessible and visible. And I think the people here are
going to love him.”
Shelton Quarles, Tampa Bay Buccaneers director of football operations (to TitansOnline.com Jan. 14, 2016): “I think he has an overall great
grasp of the league itself, from the guys coming in from college, to the guys
that are already here on the pro side. And he has a great understanding of
what it takes to set up a good roster and have a good team. He has a great
ability to prioritize and make sure everyone is on task to get things done in
a timely fashion. He works great with all the guys here, I’ve never heard any
complaints. He is very organized and detail-oriented. He has been around
some great coaches in (Bill) Belichick and was with Lovie (Smith). He’s
done a great job over the last few drafts here, with Jameis (Winston) and
all our young guys from the draft who’ve kind of helped put us on the right
track. I am pretty sure he’ll be able to do the same thing with the Titans.”
Jerry Reese, New York Giants general manager (statement Jan. 14,
2016): “I’m proud of Jon and happy for him. He’s worked hard to earn his
stripes in this business. I wish him good luck!”
Jason Licht, Tampa Bay Buccaneers general manager (to
TitansOnline.com Jan. 14, 2016): “I first met Jon while I was a scout with
the New England Patriots and he was a young position coach at Nicholls
State University. After spending a day with him, I knew that he had a bright
future in this business because he possessed the type of personnel and
talent evaluation skills that NFL teams highly covet. A couple of seasons
later, he was working with us at the Patriots and it became very clear that he
would one day rise up the ranks to run his own team. During our 14 years
together, Jon has been a valued co-worker and trusted advisor, but more
importantly, a great friend. He was the first person I attempted to hire when
I was named general manager of the Buccaneers and I was fortunate to
have him by my side these past two years. Based on all that I know about
Jon, I am certain he will enjoy great success with the Tennessee Titans.
They could not have hired a better person to lead their football operations.”
Daniel Jeremiah, former NFL scout and current NFL Network analyst
(to TitansOnline.com Jan. 15, 2016): “Sometimes you see guys get these
jobs and they are people you have been on the road with, and you’ve see
them cut corners and you’ve seen them not deal well with people, and you
are almost disappointed when some of these guys get hired. And then
there’s guys like J-Rob and you’ve been with them on the road and you
know how hard they’ve worked, and you know they are come early, stay
late guys. You know that they know how to cultivate sources at schools and
develop relationships, and he’s always been one of those guys. He is somebody who has a lot of respect in the scouting community. He is a scout’s
scout, and someone who is highly regarded in that community. He’s a good
Bill Belichick, New England Patriots head coach (to TitansOnline.com
Feb. 22, 2016): “Jon is smart, works hard, and is team oriented. He showed
a strong commitment to finding the players and specific types of players we
needed, digging out information on their individual personal characteristics, and understanding the projection of how each player would contribute
and fit into our program. He did many ‘extras’ that went beyond the normal
duties in his job. Jon patiently worked his way up through the Patriots organization and was unselfish in his team-first attitude to do whatever he
could to help us win ... Jon educated me on the changes in the landscape
of scouting and we made adjustments in our process as a result of his perceptive comments.”

FIRST-ROUNDERS: OFFENSE OR DEFENSE?
THE 33RD OVERALL PICK
Since the team’s initial draft as a charter member of the American
Football League in 1960, the Titans have made 51 first-round selections,
using that pick on an offensive player 30 times and on defense 21 times.
On offense, running backs lead the list, having been chosen eight
times in the first round, three of which were Heisman Trophy winners: Billy Cannon (1960), Earl Campbell (1978) and Eddie George (1996). The
most recent was Chris Johnson, the 24th overall selection in 2008 who
went on to rush for 1,228 yards as a rookie and eclipse 2,000 yards in his
second season.
On the defensive side of the ball, linebackers have been selected
the most -- seven times -- by the Titans in the first round. Robert Brazile
(1975), Lamar Lathon (1990) and Keith Bulluck (2000) headline the linebackers chosen.
The Titans enter the 2016 NFL Draft not only with the first overall pick
in the first round, but also the second pick of the second day of the draft.
They are scheduled to draft 33rd overall when Round 2 opens on Friday,
April 29. Because the New England Patriots do not have a first-rounder in
2016, the second round begins at pick number 32 (Cleveland Browns).
The Titans/Oilers have never before picked 33rd overall. They owned
the pick in 2015 but traded it to the New York Giants in exchange for the
40th overall pick (second round – Dorial Green-Beckham), the 108th overall pick (fourth round – Jalston Fowler) and the 245th overall pick (seventh
round - Tre McBride).

In eight of the 17 drafts in the “Titans era” (since 1999), Tennessee has
chosen a defensive player with its initial pick (including second-round picks
in years without a first-round selection). Seven of those picks came in a
nine-year span: defensive end Jevon Kearse (1999), linebacker Keith Bulluck (2000), cornerback Andre Dyson (second round in 2001), defensive
tackle Albert Haynesworth (2002), cornerback Andre Woolfolk (2003),
cornerback Pacman Jones (2005) and safety Michael Griffin (2007). The
last defensive player taken with the Titans’ first pick was outside linebacker/
defensive end Derrick Morgan in 2010.
The recent trend is for the Titans to take offensive players first. In the
last eight years, that side of the ball has been addressed seven times in
the first round, with the selections of running back Chris Johnson (2008),
wide receiver Kenny Britt (2009), quarterback Jake Locker (2011), wide
receiver Kendall Wright (2012), guard Chance Warmack (2013), tackle
Taylor Lewan (2014) and quarterback Marcus Mariota (2015).
History of the 33rd overall pick (since 2002, when the NFL went to 32
teams and the first round became 32 picks):
* Pick traded
# The Houston Texans acquired the Oakland Raiders’ 2004 second-round
pick – which would have been the 33rd overall pick – but used it in the 2003
supplemental draft. As a result, the Arizona Cardinals picked 33rd.

DRAFT PICKS BY POSITION
DAY 3 PICKS
In 56 drafts in the history of the Titans organization, the team has drafted more offensive linemen than any other position. There have been a total
of 188 tackles, guards and centers drafted, 75 more than the next highest
drafted position, running back/fullback, which has had 113 players drafted
by the Titans.
Below is a breakdown of the team’s 788 all-time draft picks by position
groups.
The Titans currently hold a pick in each of the fifth, sixth and seventh
rounds. Those selections will take place on Day 3 of the draft on Saturday,
April 30.
Through the years, the Titans have found a number of “hidden gems”
in the second half of the draft who have become productive players and
starters. Since 1995, the franchise has found 34 regular starters (started
10 games or more in at least one season unless otherwise noted below)
through the years with selections in Rounds 4-7.
In 2015, the Titans had several former Day 3 picks who served as regular starters. The list included defensive end DaQuan Jones (fourth round
in 2014), center Andy Gallik (sixth round in 2015), cornerback Jason McCourty (sixth round in 2009), cornerback Coty Sensabaugh (fourth round
in 2012), center Brian Schwenke (fourth round in 2013) and linebacker
Avery Williamson (fifth round in 2014).

For the past eight years, more defensive backs (cornerbacks and safeties) have been drafted into the NFL than any other position. Among the
entire 256-member 2015 NFL draft class, there were 47 defensive backs
selected, tied with offensive linemen for the most of any position. The last
time another position group out-numbered the defensive backs was 2006,
when 50 offensive linemen were chosen, versus 49 corners/safeties.

PICKS BY COLLEGE CONFERENCE
Since 1994, the first year of the NFL’s current seven-round draft format, the Titans have selected 36 players from the Southeastern Conference,
more than any other conference. The Big Ten is second on the list, having
sent 31 players to the organization, followed by the Pac-12 (24; formerly the
Pac-10) and the ACC (20).
In 2015, the Titans continued to mine the top conferences for talent,
selecting two players apiece from the SEC, Pac-12 and ACC. The SEC was
represented by Auburn defensive lineman Angelo Blackson and Alabama
fullback Jalston Fowler, both in the fourth round. From the Pac-12, the
Titans chose Oregon quarterback Marcus Mariota in the first round and offensive lineman Jeremiah Poutasi in the third round. Their choices from the
ACC both came in the sixth round: Louisville outside linbeacker Deiontrez
Mount and Boston College offensive lineman Andy Gallik.
The remaining three picks in 2015 came from the Big 12 (Oklahoma
wide receiver Dorial Green-Beckham), the Big Ten (Minnesota running
back David Cobb) and the Colonial Athletic Association (William & Mary
wide receiver Tre McBride).

UNDRAFTED TALENT
At the conclusion of Round 7 of the draft, the Titans personnel department remains at work. At that point, general manager Jon Robinson, his
staff, head coach Mike Mularkey and and his assistants begin the process
of contacting undrafted players the team hopes to sign as free agents.
In 2015, the Titans signed a total of 16 undrafted rookies. From that
group, cornerback Cody Riggs, offensive lineman Quinton Spain, wide
receiver Andrew Turzilli and outside linebackers Yannik Cudjoe-Virgil
and J.R. Tavai went on to make contributions on the 53-man roster during
the season. Also, free agent rookie offensive lineman Josue Matias spent
the entire season on the practice squad, and undrafted cornerback Curtis
Riley spent the campaign with the team on injured reserve.
In 2014, the Titans signed 20 undrafted free agents. Among those
players, running back Antonio Andrews and tackle Will Poehls were still
with the club at the end of 2015. Andrews led the team in rushing in his
second season.
From the 2012 crop of Titans undrafted free agents, long snapper
Beau Brinkley (2012) remains with the club.
Additional veteran contributors for the Titans who originally entered the
NFL as undrafted free agents with other teams include offensive lineman
Byron Bell, punter Brett Kern, defensive end Ropati Pitoitua and linebacker Wesley Woodyard.
THE TITANS AND DRAFT TRADES
More often than not in recent history, the Titans’ draft is altered by
at least one trade. The 2007 and 2011 drafts were the only selection
processes in the last 14 years in which the Titans did not deal or acquire
picks via trade.
In 2015, the Titans traded the team’s original second-round pick (33rd
overall) to the New York Giants for the Giants’ second-round pick (40th), a
fourth-rounder (108th) and a seventh-rounder (245th). The Titans used the
three choices on wide receiver Dorial Green-Beckham, fullback Jalston
Fowler and wide receiver Tre McBride, respectively.
The Titans have not been involved in a trade in the first round since
2004, when they swapped their first- and fifth-rounder with Houston for
additional picks in the second, third, fourth and fifth rounds.

NFL TRADES INVOLVING FIRST OVERALL DRAFT PICK SINCE 1990
On Thursday, April 14, two weeks prior to the start of the 2016 NFL
Draft, the Titans and Los Angeles Rams agreed to a trade that sent the number one overall pick from Tennessee to Los Angeles, along with the Titans’
fourth-round (113 overall) and sixth-round (177 overall) picks. In exchange,
the Titans received six total picks from the Rams: the 15th (first round), 43rd
(second round), 45th (second round) and 76th (third round) overall picks in
2016, plus first- and third-round picks from the Rams in 2017.
The deal, one of the biggest in NFL history involving the first overall
pick, gave the Titans nine selections in the 2016 Draft, including six of the
top 76 picks in the draft, and 10 selections (at present) in the 2017 NFL Draft,
including five picks in the top three rounds.
“It is not often that you have the number one overall pick and we hope
to not be in this position again, but we tried to use that pick as currency to
work the draft and maximize player acquisition,” said Titans general manager Jon Robinson at the time of the trade. “Being able to acquire six picks in
the top 76 this year and additional picks next year, not only helps our depth
but gives us ammunition to move in this year’s draft and next. I know we now
have the number 15 pick, but I would say it doesn’t knock us out of any player except one. We now have the ammunition to work the draft and acquire
players that are good for this football team. In terms of timing, it made sense
for us to do this now as it gives us time to adjust and make sure we target
more players.”
Since 1990, there have been seven trades involving the No. 1 overall
pick, but this was the first since 2004, when the San Diego Chargers selected Eli Manning with the first pick and dealt his rights to the New York Giants.

(seventh round, Tre McBride) from the New York Giants. Previously, the
Titans traded their seventh-round pick (219th overall) and linebacker Akeem
Ayers for New England’s sixth-rounder (208th overall, Andy Gallik).

Click For Complete Online Bio
Mike Mularkey was named head coach of the
Titans on Jan. 16, 2016. He served as the interim
head coach for the final nine games of the 2015 season.
“The vision Mike presented for our football
team during this search as well as the character, integrity, and leadership skills he displayed during the
last two months of the (2015) season makes him the
right coach for the Tennessee Titans,” controlling owner and co-chairman
of the board of directors Amy Adams Strunk said upon appointing Mularkey
head coach on a full-time basis. “Mike is a quality coach and an outstanding person who will help us build this team the right way. He has experience
as a head coach and a track record for developing young quarterbacks and
dynamic offenses, and he also brings continuity for our franchise quarterback. We understand this may take time as we rebuild the roster and bring
in new coaches for Mike’s staff, but we believe he has the experience and
expertise to build a consistent winner.”
Mularkey has 21 years of NFL coaching experience, including three
seasons as a head coach and eight as an offensive coordinator, with coaching stops in Jacksonville, Atlanta, Miami, Buffalo, Pittsburgh and Tampa
Bay. In five of the eight seasons he was a coordinator Mularkey’s team
went to the playoffs. He joined the Titans in 2014 as tight ends coach and
was elevated to assistant head coach prior to the start of the 2015 season.
As a former NFL tight end, Mularkey played a total of 114 games in
nine seasons with the Minnesota Vikings and Pittsburgh Steelers. His experience as a player has molded his style as a position coach. Including
his rookie preseason with the 49ers, Mularkey spent his career playing for
three of the NFL’s legendary coaches in Bill Walsh, Bud Grant and Chuck
Noll. As an assistant coach Mularkey has served on the staffs of Sam Wyche, Bill Cowher, Nick Saban, Cam Cameron, Mike Smith and Ken Whisenhunt.
Mularkey joined the Titans after one season (2012) with the Jacksonville Jaguars as the franchise’s fourth head coach, and four seasons (200811) with the Atlanta Falcons as offensive coordinator. Over the four-year
time span with the Falcons, the team advanced to the postseason three
times, ranked ninth in the NFL in total yards (354.8 per game), seventh in
points (24.5), eighth in rushing yards (125.7), third in fewest turnovers (84),
fourth in fewest sacks allowed (93), and sixth in third down conversions
(44.2).
In three of the four years with the Falcons, Mularkey’s offense produced a 3,000-yard passer, a 1,000-yard receiver and a 1,000-yard rusher
in the same season. His guidance saw the rise of QB Matt Ryan, WR Roddy
White, RB Michael Turner; and the continued growth of TE Tony Gonzalez,
who totaled 233 receptions and 19 touchdowns in their three years togeth-
er. In 2010, Sporting News
named Mularkey “Coordinator of the Year.”

2016 TITANS SCHEDULE ANNOUNCED
The Tennessee Titans open the 2016 regular season at home against
the Minnesota Vikings on September 11 and host the Super Bowl Champion Denver Broncos on December 11. The Titans also will appear in a
Thursday night primetime contest against the Jacksonville Jaguars at Nissan Stadium on October 27.
“Opening up with Minnesota, a playoff team, will be good test for us
at home,” said Titans head coach Mike Mularkey. “We haven’t opened up
at home since 2012, it will be nice for our fans - opening day for our fans,
there is nothing like it. Then we have a stretch of 12 games until the bye,
but we do have the opportunity to play a Thursday night game which acts
like a mini-bye in the middle of the season. I think it is a pretty fair schedule.
I like where the bye is at the end of the year as opposed to the beginning of
the year like we had last season. The first thing I always look at when the
schedule comes out isn’t where is the bye or the opener but what does December look like as we try to get on a roll at the right time of the season and
it is good that we have two of the last four games at home. Nothing in this
schedule stands out as unique, which is a good thing. All of our opponents
will be tough and we will be tough for our opponents.”
The Titans schedule features home games against Denver, Cleveland,
Green Bay, Minnesota, Oakland, Jacksonville, Houston and Indianapolis.
Tennessee will travel to Kansas City, San Diego, Miami, Chicago, Detroit, Houston, Jacksonville and Indianapolis.
Flexible scheduling may be applied in Weeks 5-15. During that period,
flexible scheduling can be used by the NFL by shifting a Sunday afternoon
game into primetime and moving the Sunday night game to an afternoon
start time.
Also, a select number of games are being “cross-flexed,” moving between CBS and FOX to bring potentially under-distributed games to wider
audiences.
For Week 17, the Sunday night game will be announced no later than
six days prior to January 3. The NFL schedule does not list a Sunday night
game in Week 17, but an afternoon game with playoff implications will be
moved to that time slot. Flexible scheduling ensures quality matchups in all
Sunday time slots in those weeks and gives “surprise” teams a chance to
play their way into primetime.
Additionally, the Titans released their preseason dates and times. Tennessee opens the preseason slate of games at Nissan Stadium against
San Diego on Saturday, August 13 at 7:00 p.m. (central). Week two against
NFC Champion Carolina will be played on Saturday, August 20 at 2:00 p.m.
(central) and the finale at Miami will be announced at a later date.

OFFSEASON ADDITIONS
In his first few months as Titans general manager, Jon Robinson
worked to re-sign some of the team’s own key free agents. Returning running back Antonio Andrews, tight end Craig Stevens, defensive lineman
Al Woods and offensive lineman Byron Bell were retained by the Titans
with new contracts. Robinson also brought the following free agents to
Tennessee from other clubs: cornerback Brice McCain (Miami Dolphins),
center Ben Jones (Houston Texans), quarterback Matt Cassel (Dallas
Cowboys), wide receiver Rishard Matthews (Dolphins), linebacker Sean
Spence (Pittsburgh Steelers), cornerback Antwon Blake (Steelers) and
safety Rashad Johnson (Arizona Cardinals).
Perhaps most notably, Robinson engineered a trade with the Philadelphia Eagles to acquire running back DeMarco Murray. In exchange for the
2014 NFL rushing leader, the Titans agreed to swap their fourth-round pick
(100th overall) for the Eagles’ fourth-rounder (113th overall).
