Titans bolster pass rush at top of 2nd round with Kevin Dodd

The Tennessee Titans selected rush linebacker Kevin Dodd out of Clemson at No. 33 overall with the second pick in the second round of the 2016 NFL Draft on Friday.

Dodd's college resume is limited, but some analysts argue he has higher upside than Clemson teammate Shaq Lawson, who was selected in the first round.

On the Titans, Dodd joins a pass-rushing corps that includes Brian Orakpo and Derrick Morgan.
