Simple things the Titans should do this offseason Published at 12/27/2016

This is a short and sweet list. If a few of these these things happen in the off season I'd be a pleased fan.
Draft: 2017
- With their first round 1 pick (from the Rams) I want them to grab Marlon Humphrey CB out of Alabama. If he's gone then they can take a chance on Quincy Wilson CB from the Gators. The Titans desperately need to fix their secondary woes.McCourty is passable but only just.
- With their second 1st round pick I would love to see them grab Caleb Brantley DT/NT of the Gators. If he's around at this part of the draft he would be a home run for a Titans team that wants to get after the QB. 3-4 isn't his ideal defensive scheme but he's a great player, and he, paired with Cassey, would be a dominating front with DaQuan Jones starting to figure out how to be a disruptive DE.
Free Agency: 2017
- Spend the damn money and get Alshon Jeffery WR in a Titans uniform. Drafting a WR is a chancy crap shoot and often doesn't pay off for a few years. Why not spend on a known talent that is looking for a fresh start and is a true WR1? He's used to playing in bad weather and is exactly what Mariota wants. With Alshon, Rishard and Delanie the Titans would boast as talented a receiving corps as anyone in the AFC.
- At least explore getting Kevin Zeitler G in a Titans uniform. He's exactly the kind of guard the Titans need. Especially if Warmack isn't interested in taking what his current value is.
- Attempt to get Harrison Smith FS Minn. into a Titans uniform. It's going to take a major payday I feel. He's become as versatile a FS as there is in the NFL. He would be a welcome addition to a defensive secondary that needs an identity other than "hot mess".
- Look into Gerald Hodges ILB SF.He would be an upgrade and would excel in Lebeau's system.
Taking care of business: 2017
- Resign Chance Warmack to a reasonable, average guard salary. If not, let him walk. He's not turned into the perennial pro bowler they expected. He's not been horrible either though.
- Resign Craig Stevens. He does all the little things a blocking TE needs to do, and does them well.
- Resign Kendall Wright to a team friendly deal. He has been pretty much the average work the middle WR. Not great, but journeyman like. You need players like this on your roster.
- While not imperative I think resigning Karl Klug makes a lot of sense. He's a menace in a nickle scheme and a serviceable back up.
