Draft Grade — Titans
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Titans a B.

When the story of this class is written, it opens with DeMonte Capehart at the 228th overall pick, a reach of 47 spots that the board flatly disagrees with.

McKinstry at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through running back.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Olumuyiwa Fashanu
In the Round 1 slot they get a cornerstone up front at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick38 Rnd2 Kool-Aid McKinstry
They will replay Kool-Aid McKinstry at No. 38 for years; that is how good the value is. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick44 Rnd2 Xavier Legette
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Xavier Legette in slot 44. The roster fit checks out.
Pick106 Rnd4 Mohamed Kamara
Mohamed Kamara in pick 106 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick112 Rnd4 Javion Cohen
They left a pile of value on the table to take Javion Cohen this early at pick No. 112. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick144 Rnd5 Ty'Ron Hopper
A conviction pick on Ty'Ron Hopper at the 144th pick that the board grades a round light. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick184 Rnd6 Josh Proctor
Josh Proctor in pick 184 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick228 Rnd7 DeMonte Capehart
This one needs a full-page explanation: DeMonte Capehart in the Round 7 slot, miles early. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
