2017 NFL Mock Draft: NFL Conference Championship Edition

After taking a wide receiver with their other first-round selection, the Titans should move to the other side of the ball and work on building out their secondary. Outside of Jason McCourty, the Titans have very little depth at the cornerback position.

If the Titans want to find a guy with CB1 potential, then they should take a long look at Ohio State’s Marshon Lattimore. Lattimore benefitted from playing in an absolutely stacked Buckeyes secondary, but his tape stood out in a big way in his only season as a starter.

Lattimore may arguably have the most fluid hip rotation in this entire class, and that’s huge for a No. 1 cornerback trying to cover receivers as they go deep. He does a great job with technique, but he also has an impressive second gear that allows him to jump routes when he sees an opportunity to do so.

Playing on a solid Ohio State defense may help mask some of Lattimore’s mistakes, and only having one year of tape makes him a bit risky. However, the work Lattimore has put in has made him look every bit like a first-round pick, and his upside as a shutdown corner at the next level will make him an appealing option for a team like Tennessee.
