Draft Grade — Titans
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Titans checked most of the boxes and earned a B.

Somehow the biggest item on the list survived the weekend. The Titans never addressed running back, and it is the kind of gap that lingers. Good, not great, and the B says as much.

However the rest shakes out, Green at that price is a win they earned. Booker has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. Offensive lineman was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

The skill positions did well by the weekend.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 Malik Nabers
In Round 1, Pick 7 they get a go-to option on the outside at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick38 Rnd2 Tyler Guyton
Tyler Guyton in the 38th pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick106 Rnd4 Max Melton
They took Max Melton at par in slot 106, which is nothing to complain about. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick144 Rnd5 Austin Booker
A reach for Austin Booker in pick No. 144; a little patience would have been rewarded. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick184 Rnd6 Andrew Raym
A premium they did not need to pay, Andrew Raym a notch or two before his time. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick228 Rnd7 Jalen Green
Jalen Green in pick 228 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It adds depth where they could use a little.
