EDGE. Texas A&M. Myles Garrett. 2. player. 35.

Who knows whether or not the Los Angeles Rams will actually be the second-worst team in the NFL. However, if they do get that No. 2 overall pick, then they’re going to be kicking themselves since they have to give their first-round pick to the Tennessee Titans.

Texas A&M edge rusher Myles Garrett has all but solidified his status as the nation’s top defensive player over the past couple of seasons. He has absolutely dominated opposing offensive tackles when getting to the quarterback, doing things like this.

At 6’5” and 270 pounds, Garrett is a physical specimen who utilizes his strength to his advantage. He’s still a developing pass rusher who needs to work more on his technique, but the potential is there for Garrett to be a future star and live up to previous Aggies edge defenders like Von Miller.

The Titans need someone to eventually take over for Brian Orakpo, and Garrett could be just the guy they’re looking for.
