Determined to reverse the team’s recent fortunes and reestablish the Titans as contenders in the AFC South, the front office will spend the coming months navigating free agency and the NFL Draft, while the coaching staff, largely intact after extensive changes a year ago, will continue building upon the system it worked to implement in 2014. The effort to find the right players to upgrade the roster already is well underway. The club got its first up-close look at some of the draft prospects at the Senior Bowl in January, and the NFL Scouting Combine in February is quickly approaching. College pro days and private visits with select NFL hopefuls will follow, and the process culminates with the draft from April 30-May 2. In the meantime, many of the league’s free agents will join new teams. Players with expiring contracts are eligible to sign elsewhere on March 10, when the new league year begins. Veterans return to Saint Thomas Sports Park on April 20 for the start of the offseason workout program, and by early May, once the draft is complete and rookie free agents are signed, the vast majority of players who will make up the regular season roster will be in the fold. Titans leadership is determined to meet the challenge. Team president and CEO Tommy Smith, general manager Ruston Webster and head coach Ken Whisenhunt have had a year to work together, and according to Whisenhunt, the promise of consistency is alluring to all, including the players. “That’s one of the biggest things when meeting with the players that they were most excited about,” Whisenhunt said.“We’re going to have systems in place that they’re familiar with. They have a chance to get better and believe in what we’re doing.” Whisenhunt has a track record of turning a franchise around. In his previous stint as head coach of the Arizona Cardinals, he inherited a team that experienced losing seasons in 20 of the 22 seasons before he arrived in 2007, including a 5-11 campaign in 2006. By 2008, the Cardinals were NFC West Division Champions and went to their first Super Bowl. The 2015 NFL Draft will be the fourth one overseen by Webster. The Titans currently possess seven total picks in the draft, includingthe second overall selection. The last time the franchise drafted that high was 1982, when tackle Dean Steinkuhler was selected by the Oilers with the second pick. 2015 DRAFT ORDER TOP TEN 1. Tampa Bay Buccaneers 2.
