With the first week of free agency in the books, the Tennessee Titans have started the process of rebuilding their roster. While they have made some moves to improve their offensive line, there are still a lot of questions to be answered in the coming weeks. The Titans still have major needs at quarterback, edge and wide receiver and could use depth everywhere on their roster.
The question that remains at this point is how much these moves have moved the needle, and are the Titans a better team today than they were in 2024. In the mind of Mason Cameron at Pro Football Focus (PFF), they haven’t made an impact and the Titans remain at the bottom of the PFF Power Rankings, No. 32 overall.
With the first wave of free agency behind us, the Titans’ draft plans have become clearer — Tennessee will be selecting a quarterback with the No. 1 overall pick. Cam Ward, PFF’s top-ranked quarterback prospect, has plenty of talent, but the roster around him still has glaring weaknesses.
Given the team’s significant investment in its defensive front, featuring Jeffery Simmons and T’Vondre Sweat, Tennessee’s defensive line will need to play a major role if they hope to be competitive in the AFC.
The additions of Dan Moore and Kevin Zeitler definitely upgrade the offensive line, which will be a tremendous help to whoever plays quarterback in 2025. The offensive line was arguably the weakest unit they put on the field in 2024 and was the cause of many of the issues on that side of the ball. It’s a start to digging out of the cellar, but a lot more is needed.
Cody Barton, Xavier Woods, Dre’Mont Jones, and Johnny Hekker were all needed additions that solidified depth and are possible upgrades over 2024, but a lot more is needed to make a difference and move the Titans out of the bottom.
