Here's the paywall link for the Athletic.com's redraft of 2017's class for those who subscribe. And guess who made it into the first round...

18. Tennessee Titans
The 2017 pick: Cornerback Adoree’ Jackson

The redraft pick:
Wide receiver Cooper Kupp

Having passed on taking Davis at No. 5 this time in favor of White at cornerback, the Titans once again find themselves in need of pass-catching talent. The only returning receiver of note heading into 2017 was Rishard Matthews, and he would soon start to tail off. So the Titans will select Kupp, who has the most receiving touchdowns (21) of anyone in the 2017 draft class — despite the fact he missed half of 2018 with an injury. Cooper came back with a great 2019, catching 94 passes for 1,161 yards and 10 touchdowns. He and A.J. Brown, the Titans’ second-round pick last season, would have been a great tandem for years to come.

Not bad eh? That Cooper Kupp... He's a dog, bro. (y)

Not surprised in the least. Adding in JJ3, Everett, Reynolds, and Ebukam, I think we had an amazing class, considering we had no first round pick.

Who could have known that Cooper Kupp would pan out? ;)


Lol man...I don't look at any forums while the draft is going on, but I read through afterward and your near melt down at (first) passing on Kupp was epic.
