NFL Mock Draft 2018: Complete first round after Week 13
. CB. Louisville. Jaire Alexander. 22. player. 35
There are few needs for the Titans these days as they have built up the team with young players from the past few draft classes. The offensive line is set, the quarterback position is rock-solid, running backs are in good shape and the receivers look to be as well.
That brings into question the defensive side of the ball. The Titans could use an edge rusher as well as maybe some help in the defensive backfield as they rank just 21st in the league in passing yards allowed per game. A young lockdown cornerback like Jaire Alexander would be a nice choice at No. 22.

The 5-foot-11, 192-pound cornerback has been hampered with injuries this season, but scouts shouldn’t be too worried about that as he returned to form when he was healthy, looking down receivers at an impressive rate.
Alexander played just five games during the regular season, finishing with 19 total tackles, an interception and four pass deflections. This kid can flat-out ball and there will be a high demand for him in the NFL draft.
