The Tennessee Titans added a pair of offensive linemen during the 2023 NFL draft, one of whom was Maryland offensive tackle Jaelyn Duncan in the sixth round.
Duncan fits the mold of what the Titans are looking for, which are athletic offensive linemen who can get out in space and block. The former Terrapin notched an impressive 9.01 Relative Athletic Score, ranking 129th out of 1,294 tackles who have been registered between 1987 and 2003.
Depending on who you ask, the Titans also got pretty good to great value with their sixth-round pick. Our Shaun Calderon listed Duncan as his No. 9 tackle, projecting him to go anywhere between the fourth and fifth rounds.
Jaelyn Duncan was drafted with pick 186 of round 6 in the 2023 draft class. He scored a 9.01 #RAS out of a possible 10.00. This ranked 129 out of 1294 OT from 1987 to 2023. https://t.co/mBwwcovYnJ pic.twitter.com/ASKgCzb8Se

“Experienced and athletic lineman who has real long-term upside if he can polish his technique once he gets around NFL coaching on a full-time basis,” Calderon wrote about Duncan ahead of the draft.
