Draft Grade — Titans
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Titans let Hadden fall and pounced. Final grade: B.

Call it larceny. Kamal Hadden sat on the board until the 221st overall pick, and the Titans did not need to be asked twice.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped running back, which is a strange place to end up. The cost of the Gray reach is exactly the players who went right after him.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 Olumuyiwa Fashanu
In Round 1, Pick 7 they get a long-term starter on the line. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick38 Rnd2 Ladd McConkey
Ladd McConkey in the 38th overall pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick106 Rnd4 Cedric Gray
Cedric Gray at pick No. 106 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick146 Rnd5 Brennan Jackson
Brennan Jackson at slot 146 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick182 Rnd6 Ty'Ron Hopper
No drama and no debate, Ty'Ron Hopper went about where he belonged in the Round 6 slot. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick221 Rnd7 Kamal Hadden
Kamal Hadden in pick 221 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick227 Rnd7 Gabe Hall
Fair-plus on Gabe Hall, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick242 Rnd7 Dominique Hampton
Value with a capital V on Dominique Hampton in No. 242, a genuine coup. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
