AI-Generated Summary

In this episode of Music City Audible, hosts Justin Graver and Justin Mello build a comprehensive 3-round big board for the Tennessee Titans ahead of the 2026 NFL Draft, focusing on picks 4, 35, and 66. They begin by ranking their top three prospects for the No. 4 overall pick, with a strong consensus on Arvel Reese, Ohio State’s versatile edge defender, as their top choice due to his projectable pass-rushing upside and fit with Robert Sala’s defensive scheme. Jeremiah Love, the elite running back, is ranked second, followed by Carnell Tate as a potential high-impact receiver to support Cam Ward. The discussion then shifts to round two, where they evaluate potential targets at 35, emphasizing wide receivers like Denzel Boston and Omar Cooper Jr., interior offensive linemen such as Emmanuel Pregnon and Keelan Rutledge, and edge rushers including Gabe Yakis and Malachi Lawrence. For pick 66, they narrow the list to a mix of guards, linebackers, and defensive backs, with a focus on players who could fill long-term needs. The episode concludes with a preview of upcoming guest appearances and a discussion about going live daily during draft week.

Key Takeaways
1

Arvel Reese is the top-rated prospect for the Titans at No. 4, praised for his projectable edge rusher potential and fit with Robert Sala’s defensive system.

2

The Titans should prioritize offensive line and wide receiver depth in rounds two and three, especially if they draft Jeremiah Love at No. 4.

3

Keelan Rutledge and Emmanuel Pregnon are top interior lineman targets at pick 35 due to their high ceiling and potential to help Cam Ward.

4
