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

You can draft well and still miss the point. The Titans did plenty of tidy work and somehow never got around to interior defensive lineman, which was the need that mattered most. Call it a sensible B, earned the boring way.

If Tupuola-Fetui pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. The Washington pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the interior defensive lineman spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 Olumuyiwa Fashanu
In No. 7 they get a long-term starter on the line. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick38 Rnd2 Chris Braswell
A market-rate edge rusher, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Chris Braswell. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick107 Rnd4 Malik Washington
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Malik Washington at pick No. 107 is the proof. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick145 Rnd5 Jarrian Jones
No drama and no debate, Jarrian Jones went about where he belonged in the Round 5 slot. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick184 Rnd6 Zion Tupuola-Fetui
They jumped the gun on Zion Tupuola-Fetui, taking him earlier than his grade liked. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick219 Rnd6 Frank Gore Jr.
Frank Gore Jr. in slot 219 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
