CBS Sports reports the Tennessee Titans are looking to move back up in the 1st round, just a week after dealing away the 1st overall pick to the Los Angeles Rams.

The Titans have a slew of draft picks to use as trade bait. I'm imagining the prospect of Tennessee somehow moving back into the top 5 and ending up with Tunsil or Ramsey. That would be pretty epic.

This shouldn't come as a surprise. This was what they were looking to do all along... Gather more picks and still get their top target.

Like I've been saying Tunsil is going to fall a little bit on draft night, I wouldn't be surprised at all to see them trade back into the top 7 or so and snag him. Ramsey's the hometown kid but I think my bolts are going to snag him at #3 and if that doesn't happen Dallas will take him at #4, so it's gotta be for Tunsil. I hope they do it, would definitely be a dope move

Move makes too much sense for them. Mariota is getting the Tim Couch/David Carr treatment and needs protection... Best place to invest and arguably the top lineman in the draft.

They say he's an elite pass blocker at LT, and the more time in the pocket you can buy for a QB like MM the more good things are going to happen. It really does make too much sense for them not to try and pull it off, especially since they have to go up against guys like JJ Watt and Clowney 2x a year, not to mention the Jags defense is totally revamped and going to be a force under Gus Bradley.

If I'm Dallas, I call the Titans and trade out of 4th overall. Keep fingers crossed Paxton Lynch falls to 15 and start planning Romo's retirement party in 2017.

Lynch falls in that range in most of the credible mocks that I've seen so far

It would be an awful decision for Dallas to draft a QB at #4. Love them, or hate them they have a team that can contend if they stay healthy. Everything would have to go right, and by no means are they the best team in the NFC but they should win the division

Who suggested they draft a QB at #4? This discussion about Dallas moving down.
