Summary

The Tennessee Titans rookie class has a chance to make an immediate impact and no one is higher on that list than Carnell Tate. Not only is Tate going to be a starter, but he needs to be the Titans #1 wide receiver and alpha target on day one. Tate fills the X role perfectly in Brian Daboll's offense and should be able to take advantage of isolated opportunities. Keldric Faulk may take more time. Faulk should focus on a specific role in the defense and get proficient at it before being given a lot to do. The Titans have the depth on the defensive line to not have to rush Faulk into too much action. However, Anthony Hill may be able to make an impact from day one and that may have more to do with Cody Barton than Hill. Hill has to develop mentally at the position and play with better instincts, but his pure athleticism and violence advantage over Barton will make it hard to keep Hill off the field. Finally, the day three crop can make an impact, but no one has a chance to play an important role more than Fernando Carmona and Pat Coogan on the offensive line. Nick Singleton could also factor in immediately in the backfield and get 5-10 touches a game. Jackie Marshall and Jared Kanak will be less likely to make an impact though and will have to truly earn any chance they get.
