The Tennessee Titans have a need at tight end behind Chig Okonkwo and could look to fill it with South Dakota State tight end Tucker Kraft in the 2023 NFL draft.
According to Justin Melo of The Draft Network, the Titans have held a pre-draft visit with the tight end prospect, who has met with a total of 10 teams, including Tennessee, the New Orleans Saints and the Arizona Cardinals.
Our in-house draft guru Shaun Calderon ranks Kraft as the No. 7 tight end in this year’s class and projects he could go anywhere from early in the third round to late in the fourth.
“Impactful three-down player who is sufficient in every aspect of his game,” Calderon wrote about Kraft. “Kraft will only continue to improve once he’s around NFL coaching on a full-time basis.”
There's a TON of interest in @GoJacksFB TE Tucker Kraft, who has made a league-leading 10 visits, I'm told. #Titans, #Saints, #Cardinals among his stops. https://t.co/rLX6gXxCK4

Assuming Calderon’s projections come to fruition, the Titans would have to grab Kraft in the third round, as the team doesn’t have a fourth-round pick at the moment, something that could change.
