The Tennessee Titans made NFL history by becoming the first team to select Heisman Trophy winners in back to back drafts when they took Alabama running back Derrick Henry with the 45th overall pick last night.
Last season they selected quarterback Marcus Mariota with the second overall pick, and now have five overall dating back to their days as the Oilers.
On the surface, adding a Heisman winner is not that significant, as more often than not they have gone on to become NFL busts. Names like Johnny Manziel, Troy Smith, and Matt Leinart immediately come to mind…and that’s just to name a few.
