Draft Grade — Titans
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Titans did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B.

You could see the war room lean forward. Nate Wiggins at the 38th pick is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did.

Glaze has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. Leaving running back unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

They left with offensive lineman solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off. The skill positions did well by the weekend.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 Malik Nabers
In the 7th overall pick they get a difference-maker at receiver at fair value.
Pick38 Rnd2 Nate Wiggins
The board fumbled Nate Wiggins all the way to No. 38, and they scooped it up. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick106 Rnd4 Dominick Puni
A clean, defensible pick in the Round 4 slot with a little surplus value in Dominick Puni. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick144 Rnd5 Delmar Glaze
They talked themselves into Delmar Glaze at the 144th overall pick, and the board did not agree. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick184 Rnd6 Jaylen Harrell
Jaylen Harrell in slot 184 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick228 Rnd7 Demani Richardson
The board had cheaper options than Demani Richardson at the 228th pick, and it noticed. A minor need, but a need all the same.
