John Ross — Washington — Wide Receiver

John Ross’ stock shot up due to his incredible performance at the draft combine in March.

I’m typically a little skeptical of players that are “combine stars”, but Ross at least has a history of producing.

Ross caught 81 passes for 1,150 yards and 17 touchdowns at Washington, so he knows a thing or two about getting into the end zone.

The Titans need a big play threat, and Ross’ speed would certainly provide that.

I think drafting Ross at 18 is a bit of a gamble, but he might be a player the Titans can’t afford to pass up.
