NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- The Titans have done a lot of good work and a lot of work period to dig out of a substantial roster hole in order to feel a much better-looking team in 2024.
But they still have issues.
And the damage from the drafting downturn the cost Jon Robinson his job during the 2022 season will linger into the 2025 season and beyond.
That's a big piece of this week's edition of The Paul Kuharsky Podcast, which you can watch on Twitter or YouTube (also embedded below) or listen to on Apple, Spotify or IHeart.
Some of Robinson's 2022 draft class should have had an impact through at least four seasons, so Ran Carthon and company have made and will continue to make moves that fill in for picks that failed to pan out. Only four of nine 2022 picks are left with Treylon Burks qualifying as the fourth- or fifth-wide
receiver rather than the No. 1 he was supposed to be after the AJ Brown trade.
Roger McCreary is a nickel corner, Nicholas Petit-Frere is no lock to be the right tackle in his fourth season and Chig Okonkwo seems to have lost stock with the new coaching staff.
Burks won't get a fifth-year option for 2026 considering the price, and Dillon Radunz is the only guy left from the 2021 class. No one from 2020 remains on the roster.
Jon Robinson has been gone two drafts. Here is what is on the #Titans' roster from his seven drafts/ 52 picks:
