The Titans had great need on defense, but go with wideout, prompting Nashville Tennessean staffer John Glennon to suggest, "It makes sense to take a speed demon like Wright if there is concern about [Kenny] Britt's injury. Many say it takes 2 years to come back from ACL. ... According to his
NFL.com scouting report, Wright is undersized but has the speed to take the top off of NFL defenses. His athletic ability is his greatest strength, and he uses strong, polished technique to make up for his size deficiencies on the field. He has the wiggle and subsequent burst to make a move on a defender and get upfield. His ball skills are on par with his overall skills as a wideout, and he uses his footwork to run strong routes. He will have to improve his blocking and overall strength at the next level, but Wright has the potential to be a first-day pick and make an instant impact. It will be interesting to see how Wright will fit into a receiving corps without much high-end talent beyond Britt, whose recovery is said to be on pace, and Nate Washington.
