Draft Grade — Titans
Overall B+
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
The Titans won the weekend at the trade table. Grade: B+.

The rest of the league had time to spare on Kingsley Eguakun; the Titans did not wait, grabbing him 38 spots ahead at pick No. 184.

They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. That running back hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. Franklin at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster.

Penei Sewell gives the group a proven body among the projects.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick38 Rnd2 Troy Franklin
A tidy bit of business in the Round 2 slot, where Troy Franklin graded well above the range. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick106 Rnd4 Max Melton
Max Melton at slot 106 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick144 Rnd5 Austin Booker
Austin Booker at the 144th overall pick jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick184 Rnd6 Kingsley Eguakun
Kingsley Eguakun at No. 184 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick228 Rnd7 Nathaniel Watson
Nathaniel Watson in pick 228 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
