Draft Grade — Titans
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
A masterclass at the trade table lands the Titans a B+.

The trade table was a mismatch, and the Titans were on the right end of it, hauling in a fortune in surplus value. Call it a sensible B+, earned the boring way.

It is not that Ponds is a bad player; it is that the Titans had louder needs to answer first. The cost of the Lucas reach is exactly the players who went right after him. The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

However the rest shakes out, Love at that price is a win they earned.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Makai Lemon
In Round 1, Pick 12 they get a go-to option on the outside. A real need, handled.
Pick20 Rnd1 Jeremiyah Love
In slot 20 they get a bell-cow for the offense, and a steal at that. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick35 Rnd2 Brandon Cisse
A straight-up fair deal on Brandon Cisse at the 35th overall pick, value and slot in agreement. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick66 Rnd3 Anthony Lucas
Anthony Lucas at the 66th pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick101 Rnd4 D'Angelo Ponds
A want over a need in pick 101: D'Angelo Ponds adds a cornerback while quarterback, tight end and other spots keeps waiting.
Pick140 Rnd5 Ted Hurst
Ted Hurst at No. 140 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick142 Rnd5 Jalen Stroman
Jalen Stroman at pick No. 142 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick150 Rnd5 Davison Igbinosun
A tidy little value on Davison Igbinosun in the Round 5 slot, a step better than break-even. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick182 Rnd6 Pat Coogan
Pat Coogan in pick 182 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick238 Rnd7 Jordan Hall
Jordan Hall in the 238th pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
