Twitter reactions: Titans select Hassan Haskins
The former linebacker was selected in the fourth round on Saturday afternoon by the Tennessee Titans.
The Titans selected Haskins, who turned into an outstanding running back, with the 131st pick — Haskins will get to learn from a great in Derrick Henry. Haskins became the fourth Wolverine to be picked in this year’s NFL draft.
Haskins really shined during his senior season last year when he split time with Blake Corum, but once Corum had to go out with an injury — it became the Haskins’ show. What fans will remember is his final regular-season game against Ohio State where he rushed for four touchdowns en route to a Michigan win against its arch-rival.
Haskins will be looking to fight for a lead backup role for the Titans where he can sub in for Henry when he needs a breather, and Haskins will surely have a good shot to get that done.
Here are the best Twitter reactions after Haskins was selected by the Titans.

Tremendous fit for Haskins. Good luck trying to tackle Derrick Henry, think you're getting a break, then seeing Haskins run at you.

Hassan Haskins was one of the lowest-rated recruits in one of Michigan’s lowest-rated classes of the modern era.
One month into this season, he wasn’t even U-M’s most productive RB.
A few months later, he’s forever remembered in U-M/OSU lore and he’s a 4th round NFL draft pick. pic.twitter.com/TYFtvrPSb5

#Titans' Hassan Haskins: Talked to Titans a couple times, felt a good fit … Said he's ready to rock, to work hard … Hasn't given Vrabel any grief about the 5-TD game he had against Ohio State, but might yet.

RB Hassan Haskins says he talked to the Titans a couple times and says he felt a good connection with RB coach Tony Dews. Says he's ready to rock.

We need to acknowledge how of a pick Hassan Haskins going to Tennessee is. I legitimate great backup to Henry. He’s the lighting to Henry’s thunder
