Tennessee Titans 2009 Draft Preview

(Sports Network) - The Titans' biggest offseason loss - literally and figuratively - was Albert Haynesworth, who broke the bank by signing with the Redskins. Tennessee might seek to upgrade the d-line following his departure, but that doesn't necessarily mean they'll take a tackle - ends Kyle Vanden Bosch and Jevon Kearse have had injury problems and might warrant solid backups as well. Wide receiver has long been a trouble spot for the Titans as well, and even if the team is able to win the battle for Torry Holt, another wideout pick could be prudent for the team at No. 30. The mid-round focus should rest on the secondary, which lost contributors like Reynaldo Hill and Eric King, and linebacker, which has been an average part of an otherwise rock-solid defense for a couple of years.
