Now that the Titans picked wide receiver Carnell Tate and defensive end Keldric Faulk in the first round of the 2026 NFL Draft, there’s a whole world of prospects and directions the Titans can go with their pick on Day 2 of the draft, which begins on April 24 at 6 p.m. CT.

The Titans own the No. 69 pick in the third round after having given up picks Nos. 35 and 66 to move up and acquire Faulk.

With the leftover picks, the Titans have plenty of needs to address, including defensive back, guard, center and running back. They also have the option to trade back and acquire more Day 2 and Day 3 picks, the option they took in 2025 when they turned an early second-round pick into picks in the middle of the second and third rounds, drafting outside linebacker Oluwafemi Oladejo and safety Kevin Winston Jr.

Ohio State won 14-7.Here are 15 options the Titans should consider with their Day 2 pick, listed in order according to their pre-draft ranking according to USA TODAY Sports.

Allen is an athletic and versatile option in the middle of the defense. Think of him like a consolation prize for not drafting Sonny Styles, albeit a consolation prize who should be able to start in the middle of your defense starting Day 1.

Entering the 2025 season, Terrell was talked about as a potential top-10 pick. His status fell a little bit throughout the year, but he’s still a projected NFL starter with traits comparable to his brother A.J., a standout cornerback in Atlanta.

Hood might not be the same athlete as Jermod McCoy, who was expected to go in the first round and his Tennessee teammate in technicality, but he’s a phenomenal competitor and one who should be able to use his aggressiveness to be great with the ball in the air as a pro.

General manager Mike Borgonzi said the Titans need to consider drafting offensive tackle depth whenever it’s available to them. So, here’s Tiernan, a blocker from the same factory that produced Peter Skoronski.

Even after signing free agents Alontae Taylor and Cor’Dale Flott in March, the Titans need elite athleticism on the perimeter. Cisse provides that, even if he needs to figure out how to prevent big plays at a higher clip.

Pregnon was an All-America honoree at Oregon in 2025, standing out as arguably the best interior offensive lineman in college football. He’s older than your average NFL draft prospect, but he’s also a plug-and-play starter at a position of need.

A natural and fluid athlete who’s played tackle and guard at a high level in the SEC, Bisontis fills a need for the Titans on the interior and always comes with the option to bump outside if he develops into that sort of player.

Ponds is a bit undersized, but he’s an absolute gnat in coverage, buzzing and annoying his way to pass breakups and turnovers without ever really allowing big gains.

A college tackle with a huge personality who could easily profile as a guard for the Titans or any other NFL team that was a character in the locker room and a grinder on the field.

Igbinosun comes out of Ohio State as a four-year starter at cornerback, a rarity these days. He’s had some issues with handsiness, but he got better throughout his college experience and plays aggressively in a good way.

Maybe he’s a nickel specialist in the pros, but Abney knows how to get to the ball from wherever he lines up in the defensive backfield.

Smith plays a safety spot that the Titans don’t have much depth in: Centerfield. Let him play deep coverage while other defensive backs line up a little closer to the line.

An ascendant prospect who’s risen up draft boards late, Stukes can play safety or cornerback and fits in all sorts of schemes.

A buzzsaw of a nickel corner who is not only one of the best athletes in the class, but also one of the top tacklers. If he was a couple of inches taller, he’d probably have been pushing for Round 1 status.

Lew is coming off a knee injury, but he’s otherwise a pro-ready center prospect in a draft that’s surprisingly chock full of those.
