Ward is the plan now, and the Titans grade out a B-.

The search is over. The Titans handed the keys to Cam Ward, and the whole operation now runs on his development.

Reaching for Williams left real value on the table behind him. They banked enough surplus on Tuten to cover a lot of smaller sins. The interior defensive lineman spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Cam Ward
They paid sticker price for Cam Ward in No. 1, and that is fine. The roster fit checks out.
Pick35 Rnd2 Luther Burden III
Value with a capital V on Luther Burden III in Round 2, Pick 3, a genuine coup. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick103 Rnd4 Oluwafemi Oladejo
This one needs a full-page explanation: Oluwafemi Oladejo in pick No. 103, miles early. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick120 Rnd4 Kyle Williams
A real head-scratcher, Kyle Williams in slot 120 is miles ahead of his ranking. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick141 Rnd5 Hollin Pierce
A tidy little value on Hollin Pierce in the Round 5 slot, a step better than break-even. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick167 Rnd5 Bhayshul Tuten
A quiet steal in pick 167: Bhayshul Tuten for less than the market said. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick178 Rnd6 Robert Longerbeam
Robert Longerbeam at the 178th pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick188 Rnd6 Thomas Fidone II
The board had cheaper options than Thomas Fidone II at the 188th overall pick, and it noticed. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
