The 2015 NFL season isn’t over but for most teams, the focus is shifting to free agency and the NFL Draft. The Draft will once again be held in April and it could change a franchise around. Especially for a team with a new head coach.

Here is our 2nd 2016 NFL Mock Draft of the season.

  1. Tennessee Titans

Laremy Tunsil – OT – Ole Miss

The Titans gave up 54 sacks this past season which put young quarterbacks Marcus Mariota and Zach Mettenberger in serious peril when dropping back to pass. The Titans desperately need to protect their top pick from last year’s entry draft. Tunsil will go a long way to making sure Mariota is a healthy commodity when in passing situations.

While Tennessee could use someone like defensive end Joey Bosa to bolster their pass rush, it’s nowhere near the need they have in trying to protect Mariota from the other team’s pass rush.
