Titans NFL Draft 2025: Tennessee selects Oluwafemi Oladejo, EDGE, UCLA with pick No. 52

The Titans have added to the pass rush with edge rusher Oluwafemi Aladejo in the second round of the NFL Draft.

With the 52nd pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, the Tennessee Titans selected edge rusher Oluwafemi Oladejo out of UCLA.

The 6’3, 259-pound Oladejo is a off-ball linebacker-turned-edge rusher who started 16 games for the Bruins from 2023-2024 after transferring from Cal-Berkeley. He recorded career highs with 57 total tackles, 14 tackles for loss, and 4.5 sacks in his final collegiate season.

Oladejo saw a steady rise across numerous draft boards during the pre-draft process. Teams love his combination of skills that he’s accumulated in four years split across two positions. He plays with hard hands and good diagnosing skills to help him sift through the garbage at the line of scrimmage to make tackles. His pass rush toolbox needs refining, but Oladejo’s motor and ability to stack and shed blocks — something he needed to do often when playing off the ball — have helped hone his traits into a phenomenal developmental piece up front that doesn’t have — but very could — start as a rookie.

He’ll enter a position group that currently features veterans Dre’Mont Jones and Arden Key.
