On Friday evening Auburn Tigers cornerback Roger McCreary received the call he had been working towards. The Tennessee Titans made him the first cornerback selected on day 2 and the only Tiger to get drafted.
The Titans franchise is somewhat familiar with drafting players from Auburn, McCreary’s selection made it five players to join the Titans after playing for the Tigers.
McCreary was the highest draft former Auburn player in the bunch. Interestingly enough, each of those players came from the defensive side of the ball. McCreary became the first defensive back since 1999 to get that call.
We look back at the history between the Auburn Tigers and the Tennessee Titans when it comes to the NFL draft.
