No. 7: Tight End Delanie Walker

Tennessee Titans tight end Delanie Walker was one of the most productive players at his position last year, hauling in 800 yards receiving and seven touchdowns.

That kind of production is going to be hard to replicate this year, especially after the Titans invested in a true No. 1 wide receiver, Corey Davis, in the 2017 NFL Draft.

Signing free-agent wideout Eric Decker doesn’t help Walker’s projections either.

These receivers will take catches and yards away from Walker this upcoming season. Still ranked as the No. 8 overall tight end this season, per ESPN, you might want to save an early pick for someone else instead of Walker.

Like Dak Prescott, Walker’s ADP is going to be within the top 75.

You don’t need to make that mistake, though. If Walker goes early, you’re better off. Only turn to him if you see him falling into Round 8 or 9.
