Draft Grade — Titans
Overall B
ValueB- NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
The Titans kept it disciplined and banked a B.

The Titans torched the value chart for Kingsley Eguakun, taking him 38 spots sooner than anyone had him slotted.

A whole weekend of picks and running back is somehow still a want. That Green pick is the receipt they will wave around later.

They went 3 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but running back.

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 Olumuyiwa Fashanu
In the 7th overall pick they get an anchor for the offensive line. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick38 Rnd2 Xavier Legette
No drama and no debate, Xavier Legette went about where he belonged in the Round 2 slot. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick106 Rnd4 Khyree Jackson
Khyree Jackson at No. 106 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick144 Rnd5 Austin Booker
Austin Booker at the 144th pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick184 Rnd6 Kingsley Eguakun
This one needs a full-page explanation: Kingsley Eguakun in Round 6, Pick 9, miles early. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick228 Rnd7 Jalen Green
A tidy bit of business in slot 228, where Jalen Green graded well above the range. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
