Draft Grade — Titans
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Titans cashed the board's mistake on Sainristil: B-.

When a board-topper like Mike Sainristil slides to the 187th overall pick, you do not overthink it, and the Titans did not. More right than wrong, and a B- to match.

They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. The roster is better shaped than it was, with offensive lineman chief among the fixes. They came away with juice, if not much beef up front.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Malik Nabers
In the 9th overall pick they get a weapon on the perimeter at fair value.
Pick41 Rnd2 Nate Wiggins
They did well to land Nate Wiggins in No. 41, just ahead of his grade. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick109 Rnd4 Tory Horton
Tory Horton in pick No. 109 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick146 Rnd5 Sataoa Laumea
Fair-plus on Sataoa Laumea, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick187 Rnd6 Mike Sainristil
Mike Sainristil in slot 187 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick230 Rnd7 Bryce Foster
A clean, defensible pick in the Round 7 slot with a little surplus value in Bryce Foster. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
