Draft Grade — Titans
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB+ FutureB
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Titans: B.

You can fall in love with a player. You are not supposed to marry him in the wrong round. The Titans did exactly that with Carson Steele in No. 228.

The interior defensive lineman spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. However the rest shakes out, Coleman at that price is a win they earned. The trade work was a quiet net positive.

Offensive lineman is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the interior defensive lineman spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 Taliese Fuaga
In the 15th overall pick they get a cornerstone up front at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick38 Rnd2 Keon Coleman
A quiet steal in the Round 2 slot: Keon Coleman for less than the market said. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick44 Rnd2 Kalen King
By-the-book stuff, Kalen King at the 44th pick squarely in line with his ranking. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick82 Rnd3 Christian Mahogany
No drama and no debate, Christian Mahogany went about where he belonged in slot 82. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick106 Rnd4 Darius Robinson
A conviction pick on Darius Robinson at pick No. 106 that the board grades a round light. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick112 Rnd4 Jacob Cowing
Jacob Cowing slipping to No. 112 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick144 Rnd5 Ty'Ron Hopper
A straight-up fair deal on Ty'Ron Hopper at pick No. 144, value and slot in agreement. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick184 Rnd6 Josh Proctor
A market-rate safety, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Josh Proctor. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick228 Rnd7 Carson Steele
A big swing on Carson Steele at slot 228, well ahead of any board in the building. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
