The Titans teased at the possibility of trading out of the 33rd pick.

But they apparently liked Kevin Dodd too much to pass up.

The Titans took the Clemson defensive end Kevin Dodd with the second pick of the second round.

The 6-foot-5, 277-pound Dodd was overshadowed by teammate Shaq Lawson last year, but had 12.0 sacks and attracted plenty of attention in his own right. He wasn’t there to shake the commissioner’s hand, as he left after not being chosen in the first round last night.

The Titans needed all the pass-rush they can get to make Dick LeBeau’s defense work, and Dodd gives them a chance to improve there.
