Titans trade up in fifth for Southern Utah CB LeShaun Sims

NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- A few thoughts on the Titans’ second fifth round pick. They traded up to 157th for LeShaun Sims, a cornerback from Southern Utah.

My take: Analysts like his size – 6-feet, 203-pounds – and toughness. He started out playing eight-man high school football and was an unheralded recruit. Titans GM Jon Robinson likes guys who’ve had to work for things, and Sims certainly appears to fit that mold. The Titans need cornerbacks with ball skills. Sims had 25 pass breakups and eight interceptions, but only two of those picks came in the last two years.
