Jameis Winston to visit Tennessee Titans on Monday

After bringing former Oregon QB Marcus Mariota in for a pre-draft visit Thursday, the Tennessee Titans are set to meet with Florida State's Jameis Winston, the presumptive top pick in the draft, on Monday, according to NFL Media insider Ian Rapoport.



Tennessee, which picks second in the draft, has Zack Mettenberger at quarterback, but there are questions about whether he can be a viable starter in the NFL.

Most analysts believe Winston will be the No. 1 overall pick of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. But if the Bucs go in a different direction, you'd have to think the Titans would be extremely interested in Winston, who would seem to fit what Titans coach Ken Whisenhunt wants in a quarterback.

Most mock drafts have the Titans picking USC defensive end Leonard Williams with the No. 2 pick, with Mariota seemingly in play, too. But if Winston would be available, it would be hard for the Titans to bypass him.
