Draft Grade — Titans
Overall B
ValueB- NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
The Titans let Fifita fall into their laps, and walked away with a B.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Noah Fifita, the 140th pick, roughly 52 picks past where he belonged. It does the job without flash, and the B reflects it.

The running back hole is the one line item this class does not answer. They will need Dellinger to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick2 Rnd1 Will Campbell
In Round 1, Pick 2 they get a long-term starter on the line. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick33 Rnd2 Harold Perkins Jr.
A top-tier linebacker at a bargain, Harold Perkins Jr. in the Round 2 slot, plain and simple. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick102 Rnd4 Dani Dennis-Sutton
Circle this one: Dani Dennis-Sutton at the 102nd overall pick is a fall that decides a draft. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick140 Rnd5 Noah Fifita
They will replay Noah Fifita at No. 140 for years; that is how good the value is. The roster fit checks out.
Pick176 Rnd6 Garrett Dellinger
A reach for Garrett Dellinger in pick No. 176; a little patience would have been rewarded. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick232 Rnd7 Makari Paige
The board fumbled Makari Paige all the way to the 232nd pick, and they scooped it up. It adds depth where they could use a little.
