Bleav in Titans Bleav

The NFL has released its 2024 NFL schedule. Among other things, the Tennessee Titans will open on the road, finish at home and play the majority of their AFC South games in the final few weeks.

Not much time has passed in the Tennessee Titans' first offseason program under coach Brian Callahan is in full swing, but the team already has added to the passing game. Callahan has confirmed that the team will add veteran wide receiver Tyler Boyd, a free agent who -- to this point -- has spent his whole career with the Cincinnati Bengals, including the last five with Callahan as his offensive coordinator. And it is not just the personnel that is changing under the first-year head coach.

For the first time in more than a decade, the Tennessee Titans did not execute a single trade during the NFL Draft. General manager Ran Carthon and his staff selected seven players (five on defense) with the exact seven picks he had at the start of the process. A look at what they got and whether they could have (or should have) done more.

The Tennessee Titans used their first-round pick in the 2024 NFL Draft (seventh overall) to select JC Latham, a two-year starter at right tackle for Alabama. The Titans believe that the 6-foot-6, 360-pound Latham can easily transition to left tackle, where he will fill their biggest pre-draft need and play alongside last year's first-round pick, left guard Peter Skoronski.

The NFL Draft is a week away, and it seems obvious to most who the Tennessee Titans will pick with the No. 7 overall selection, assuming (of course) that he is available. One former NFL executive is not among "most," however, and predicts that general manager Ran Carthon and his staff will do something different with their first choice.

The Tennessee Titans have started their offseason program, the early voluntary meetings and training sessions that will lay the foundation for what is to come in the regular season. Because they have a new head coach, Brian Callahan, they get to start the process earlier than most other franchises, and Callahan has his first opportunity to provide the players with his vision of how the team with operate.
