Draft Grade — Titans
Overall B
ValueB- NeedA- TradesA- FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Titans a B.

The move everyone will second-guess came early. The Titans reached some 71 spots for Zion Logue, and value like that does not grow back. More right than wrong, and a B to match.

That is an edge rusher worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

A modest surplus at the table, banked quietly.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Dallas Turner
In Round 1, Pick 11 they get a premier pass rusher. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick38 Rnd2 Jordan Morgan
A reasonable price with a little left over, Jordan Morgan in the 38th pick. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick42 Rnd2 Chop Robinson
Chop Robinson in the 42nd overall pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick107 Rnd4 Jalen McMillan
Jalen McMillan in pick 107 lands just on the right side of the ledger. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick145 Rnd5 Chau Smith-Wade
A slide stopped in pick No. 145, with Chau Smith-Wade worth more than the price. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick156 Rnd5 Ty'Ron Hopper
Ty'Ron Hopper at slot 156 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick166 Rnd5 Dillon Johnson
A straight-up fair deal on Dillon Johnson at the 166th pick, value and slot in agreement. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick184 Rnd6 Nick Gargiulo
A wild overpay on Nick Gargiulo in the 184th overall pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick219 Rnd6 Zion Logue
A big swing on Zion Logue at the Round 6 slot, well ahead of any board in the building. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
