Draft Grade — Titans
Overall B+
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB-
The Titans turned the phones into found money: B+.

They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: Khalid Duke, 49 picks early at the Round 7 slot. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B+.

The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. The running back hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Mims.

Good work on the whole, with running back the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Dallas Turner
In the 13th overall pick they get a premier pass rusher. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick38 Rnd2 Amarius Mims
A quiet steal in the Round 2 slot: Amarius Mims for less than the market said. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick44 Rnd2 Adisa Isaac
By-the-book stuff, Adisa Isaac at Round 2, Pick 12 squarely in line with his ranking. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick106 Rnd4 Jarvis Brownlee Jr.
A premium they did not need to pay, Jarvis Brownlee Jr. a notch or two before his time. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick146 Rnd5 Jacob Cowing
Jacob Cowing in pick No. 146 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick182 Rnd6 Jaylan Ford
A wild overpay on Jaylan Ford in pick 182, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. The roster fit checks out.
Pick221 Rnd7 Caedan Wallace
The board had Caedan Wallace higher than pick 221, and the offensive lineman fell to them anyway. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick223 Rnd7 Evan Williams
They read the board right and Evan Williams was the payoff at the 223rd pick. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick227 Rnd7 Gabe Hall
Nothing to complain about; Gabe Hall went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick242 Rnd7 Khalid Duke
They reached into another round for Khalid Duke, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
