Draft Grade — Titans
Overall D-
ValueB- NeedB TradesF FutureB-
The Titans bet the future on Ward. The board says D-.

You can lose a draft before you make a pick. The Titans did it at the trade table, overpaying to chase players the board did not price nearly as high.

Cam Ward is the bet, and the class will be judged on how it pays off. A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want. Every board in the league had Lundt lower, and that gap is the story.

Landing Harris that late papers over a lot of smaller sins.

Bottom line, they will be counting on several picks to beat their grades.

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Cam Ward
No edge and no loss on Cam Ward in the Round 1 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick35 Rnd2 Emeka Egbuka
They did well to land Emeka Egbuka in pick 35, just ahead of his grade. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick103 Rnd4 Kevin Winston Jr.
Kevin Winston Jr. in pick No. 103 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick120 Rnd4 Cam Skattebo
A slide stopped in the 120th overall pick, with Cam Skattebo worth more than the price. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick141 Rnd5 Cody Simon
Cody Simon is a better player than slot 141 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick157 Rnd5 Chase Lundt
They paid a round early for Chase Lundt in Round 5, Pick 19, more than the board wanted. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick167 Rnd5 Kyle Williams
Kyle Williams in the 167th pick is fair value, right on his grade. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick178 Rnd6 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
Dont'e Thornton Jr. in No. 178 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The roster fit checks out.
Pick184 Rnd6 Oronde Gadsden II
Oronde Gadsden II at the 184th pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick188 Rnd6 CJ West
CJ West at slot 188 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick245 Rnd7 Jermari Harris
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Jermari Harris at Round 7, Pick 29 is the proof. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
