Titans make TE Jonnu Smith the 100th pick of the draft

The Tennessee Titans have selected tight end Jonnu Smith out of Florida International in the third round of the 2017 NFL Draft.

The Titans have a clear emphasis in this draft: adding pass-catching weapons for Marcus Mariota. Smith follows the selections of Corey Davis in the first round and Taywan Taylor earlier in the third round.

Smith's athletic profile is similar to that of Titans tight end Delanie Walker, which could be why the team liked him so much.
