35. Pick Analysis. Oklahoma State. 22. player. Scouting Report. OT. Teven Jenkins
Teven Jenkins has been one of the late risers in the 2021 NFL Draft class after a strong senior season which was derailed after eight games due to lower back issues. He decided to focus on the NFL Draft in order to avoid further damage and he’s been impressing throughout the draft process.
The Titans could go with a receiver or an offensive tackle here, but I just don’t see a wide out other than maybe Elijah Moore or Kadarius Toney being worth the pick at No. 22 overall and even then, those might be reaches.
Jenkins will be the best tackle available at this point and the 6-foot-6, 320-pound tackle helped create one of the best rushing offenses in the country at Oklahoma State.
The only knock on him is his lack of length but he more than makes up for that with his aggressiveness. He’s going to be a solid tackle for years to come.
At this point in the first round, this just makes sense.
