Draft Grade — Titans
Overall B+
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB
The Titans worked the phones like thieves and earned a B+.

They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: Evan Anderson, 62 picks early at pick 221. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B+.

The Oladapo pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. The dealing alone would carry a lesser class.

For all the activity, running back went untouched, which is hard to explain. Offensive lineman was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick10 Rnd1 Dallas Turner
No edge and no loss on Dallas Turner in pick 10; it is a wash and a sensible one. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick38 Rnd2 Kingsley Suamataia
Kingsley Suamataia in the Round 2 slot is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick72 Rnd3 Xavier Worthy
Xavier Worthy at No. 72 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the wide receiver. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick106 Rnd4 Jarvis Brownlee Jr.
A reach on Jarvis Brownlee Jr. in the 106th pick; the board had better options right there. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick146 Rnd5 Tommy Eichenberg
Tommy Eichenberg in pick No. 146 is fair value, right on his grade. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick182 Rnd6 Kitan Oladapo
Kitan Oladapo at the 182nd overall pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick221 Rnd7 Evan Anderson
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Evan Anderson. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick227 Rnd7 Jaylan Ford
The board fumbled Jaylan Ford all the way to No. 227, and they scooped it up. It fills a real need, too.
Pick242 Rnd7 Nathan Thomas
They let Nathan Thomas come to them and pounced at the 242nd pick. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
