25. Buffalo Bills: Trent McDuffie, CB, Washington

Despite a major need at the position, the Buffalo Bills have not done anything to bolster their cornerback depth chart this offseason. That likely means they have their mind made up on where they will spend their 25th pick in this draft — which would be on the best corner available.

Thankfully for them, there are some good prospects that should be available, including Trent McDuffie from Washington. McDuffie is known for his high IQ and ability to play both in the slot and on the outside. He might not be the most gifted athlete on the board but he will be a steady pro who makes very few mistakes.

26. Tennessee Titans: Jahan Dotson, WR, Penn State

Jon Robinson, the Tennessee Titans general manager, has not gotten a ton of production just yet from his previous two draft classes. He understands this and recently said he wants to find players who can help them as soon as possible.

"“We need them. They got to be productive players for us,” Robinson explained. “This year’s draft class, the 2022 class, to what degree they can help the football team? Obviously, the sooner the better.” Robinson said, via Ben Arthur of the Nashville Tennessean"

Enter Penn State wideout Jahan Dotson. Tennessee didn’t get what they wanted from Julio Jones and ended that relationship after one season. Now, they bring in Dotson who is a completely different type of receiver but could be a perfect complement to A.J. Brown.

Most importantly, he should be able to make an impact from day one.
