Known as a “dawg” by his teammates, LSU wide receiver Malik Nabers is one of the NFL Draft’s prize jewels and is so highly regarded that it’s probable the Tennessee Titans will choose him with their No. 7 choice. Tennessee needs more dynamic playmakers, as stated by general manager Ran Carthon and coach Brian Callahan of the Titans.
Nabers is, by all accounts, one of those men. At the NFL Scouting Combine on Friday, Nabers declared, “When that ball is in the air, it is mine.” “I can do amazing things with the ball when it’s in my hands.
Make room on various DBs so that you can execute spectacular plays downfield. Convert an 8-yard route into a score.
The top three wide receivers in the draft class are Nabers, Rome Oduzne of Washington, and Marvin Harrison Jr. of Ohio State. They are ranked No. 2 (Harrison), No. 4 (Nabers), and No. 8 (Odunze) among all positions by Pro Football Focus (PFF). Nabers was the country’s top-ranked receiver according to PFF in 2023. 14 touchdowns and 1,569 yards were gained by him on 89 receptions. Consensus All-American, he surpassed NFL players Justin Jefferson and Ja’Marr Chase to become LSU’s career leader in receptions and receiving yards. Having Jayden Daniels, the Heisman Trophy winner, as quarterback helps. Nevertheless, Daniels had high standards for his standout receiver.
Daniels remarked, “He is a great person outside of football.” He puts in a lot of effort and is fiercely competitive, so it’s two competing individuals trying to outdo each other every day. I adore my brother dearly, and he is that. I wouldn’t be in this predicament without him.” Nabers said that the Titans meeting went well. “I don’t think I ever had any awful interviews. I think my football acumen really impressed all the coaches.” The Titans require a player to support DeAndre Hopkins. Hopkins’ 1,057 yards was hardly exceeded by the combined gains of six other Tennessee receivers.
“Scoring points is ultimately what the NFL is all about, so having players who can do it is crucial. When all else is equal, I’ll always side with men who can score touchdowns,” Callahan declared. “There’s a good mix of talent (in this year’s class) that fits, and when you’re building a good receiver room, you’re trying to collect a little bit of all of those things.”Examining the class is enjoyable, and maybe we may identify a few men that suit us.”
