NASHVILLE, Tenn. —**The Titans made their final five picks of the NFL Draft on Saturday.

Titans general manager Jon Robinson gave a quick snapshot on each player:

**

WR Tajae Sharpe, Massachusetts, Fifth round, 140th pick**

Robinson: "He is a guy I have watched going back to when I was in Tampa Bay. He does a really good job of doing the two things that I have said on numerous occasions are important to me: Get open and catch the football. He has good length. We watched the combine workout today and he caught everything. He was smooth. It was really fortunate to get him there."

CB LeShaun Sims, Southern Utah, Fifth round, 157th pick

Robinson: "Long corner, really good run-support player. Really good production on the ball. We spent some time with him. I have liked LeShaun for a while. I think he has a real high upside and we were excited to move and get ourselves in position with the trade … to get him."

**

G Sebastian Tretola, Arkansas, Sixth round, 193rd pick**

Robinson: "Big, strong, physical, tough. We had him in here for a pre-draft visit. He played on that Arkansas line where they run the football pretty good. One thing that impressed me with the defensive linemen we talked to at the combine and at the Senior Bowl: Who's the one offensive lineman you had a tough week against and it was unanimously Sebastian Tretola. He's a heavy handed guy who was tough to get off of.'

**

LB Aaron Wallace, UCLA, Seventh round, 222nd pick**

Robinson: "(Linebackers) coach Lou Spanos went out and worked him out. He obviously has a history with him (having coached him at UCLA). Pass rush guy, he'll play outside linebacker for us and play in the kicking game."

CB Kalan Reed, Southern Miss, Seventh round, 253rd pick

Robinson: "He's a very good movement player. He has very good ball skills. I think he has eight or nine career interceptions, so another productive player on the football."
