The Tennessee Titans, under the guidance of general manager Mike Borgonzi, are actively preparing for the upcoming NFL Draft, focusing on filling multiple roster needs, particularly at the edge position. Recently, Malachi Lawrence, an edge rusher from the University of Central Florida (UCF), became the 23rd prospect to visit the Titans as part of their Top 30 evaluations. Lawrence, who has recorded 20 career sacks and runs a 4.52-second 40-yard dash, is gaining traction on draft boards due to his size and athleticism. However, he faces challenges with speed-to-power transitions and consistency against the run. If the Titans do not secure one of the top edge prospects, Lawrence could be a compelling option when they select in the second round.
