After a terrible start to the 2022 NFL draft that saw the Tennessee Titans trade one of their best players, wide receiver A.J. Brown, fans finally had a chance to get really excited after the team drafted quarterback Malik Willis.
Willis, who was projected to go in the first round, slid all the way to the third and fell right into the Titans’ lap. General manager Jon Robinson admitted the Liberty product, who we consider to have the highest upside of any signal-caller in the draft, was simply too good to pass up.
As far as his sliding to the third round is concerned, Willis said he had faith that everything would work out for the best. He also noted that he didn’t attend Day 2 of the draft and opted to rent out a bowling alley instead.
