Draft Grade — Titans
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB FutureB
The Titans robbed the room for Pritchett. Final grade: B.

The Titans did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Nehemiah Pritchett fell into the 184th overall pick.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped running back, which is a strange place to end up. They will need Kamara to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. Offensive lineman was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick17 Rnd1 Dallas Turner
In No. 17 they get a problem off the edge. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick38 Rnd2 Xavier Legette
No edge and no loss on Xavier Legette in the Round 2 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick48 Rnd2 Kingsley Suamataia
No drama and no debate, Kingsley Suamataia went about where he belonged in Round 2, Pick 16. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick79 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
Cooper Beebe at slot 79 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick96 Rnd3 Khyree Jackson
Khyree Jackson in the 96th pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick106 Rnd4 Mohamed Kamara
Mohamed Kamara in the 106th overall pick is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick144 Rnd5 James Williams
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and James Williams at pick No. 144 is the proof. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick184 Rnd6 Nehemiah Pritchett
Nehemiah Pritchett at pick 184 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick228 Rnd7 David Ugwoegbu
They paid sticker price for David Ugwoegbu in slot 228, and that is fine. This was not a hole anyone had circled.
