Draft Grade — Titans
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB FutureB-
Washington Jr. should have been long gone. The Titans pounced, and earned a B.

When a board-topper like Mike Washington Jr. slides to pick 101, you do not overthink it, and the Titans did not.

They punted on interior defensive lineman, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. They squeezed a little extra out of every move they made. Offensive lineman was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 David Bailey
In pick No. 4 they get a problem off the edge at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick47 Rnd2 Jacob Rodriguez
Jacob Rodriguez at the Round 2 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick66 Rnd3 Germie Bernard
A tidy little value on Germie Bernard in slot 66, a step better than break-even. The roster fit checks out.
Pick78 Rnd3 Jake Slaughter
Jake Slaughter at the 78th pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick101 Rnd4 Mike Washington Jr.
A running back of that caliber at the 101st overall pick is the definition of value, full stop. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick104 Rnd4 De'Zhaun Stribling
Nothing to complain about; De'Zhaun Stribling went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick144 Rnd5 Hezekiah Masses
Hezekiah Masses at No. 144 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the cornerback. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick177 Rnd5 Travis Burke
Travis Burke at pick 177 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick184 Rnd6 Febechi Nwaiwu
Febechi Nwaiwu at the 184th overall pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick194 Rnd6 Kaleb Elarms-Orr
A tidy bit of business in pick 194, where Kaleb Elarms-Orr graded well above the range. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick200 Rnd6 VJ Payne
VJ Payne in the 200th pick is fair value, right on his grade. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick218 Rnd7 Eric McAlister
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Eric McAlister at pick No. 218 is the proof. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick225 Rnd7 TJ Hall
No drama and no debate, TJ Hall went about where he belonged in the Round 7 slot. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
