The Tennessee Titans are in need of more picks for the 2024 NFL draft, but they won’t be getting them via compensatory selections.
According to Lance Zierlein of NFL.com, the Titans are one of 19 teams not projected for any comp picks. There are 13 teams projected for at least one, with the San Francisco 49ers slated for the most with five.
Per Over the Cap, the Titans gained five compensatory-eligible free agents (Andre Dillard, Arden Key, Azeez Al-Shaair, Sean Murphy-Bunting and Daniel Brunskill), one more than they lost (Nate Davis, David Long, DeMarcus Walker and Austin Hooper).
This is the second year in a row in which the Titans aren’t getting any comp picks. The last time Tennessee did was in 2022, when the team received two.
As things stand now, the Titans don’t have picks in the third, fifth and sixth rounds of the 2024 NFL draft.
Tennessee gave up its third in the trade up for quarterback Will Levis, and its fifth- and sixth-rounders in the deals for offensive tackle Dennis Daley and defensive back Ugo Amadi, respectively.
While not ideal, the Titans still have plenty of time to improve their draft capital, but that will entail trading off some of their big-named veteran players, either before or during the season.
Even if that doesn’t happen, the good news is Tennessee is set to be loaded with cap space in 2024, enabling the team to continue building the roster without a full stable of picks.
