Draft Grade — Titans
Overall B
ValueC+ NeedB TradesA+ FutureC+
The Titans worked the phones like thieves and earned a B.

If confidence were a draft strategy, the Titans would have aced it. Anim Dankwah at Round 7, Pick 32 is 53 spots clear of where he belonged. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B.

They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. For all the activity, edge rusher went untouched, which is hard to explain. The veteran additions, Trey Hendrickson chief among them, give the class a floor the rookies alone would not.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Brian Thomas Jr.
In slot 25 they get a weapon on the perimeter. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick47 Rnd2 Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
A big swing on Jeremiah Trotter Jr. at the Round 2 slot, well ahead of any board in the building. The roster fit checks out.
Pick58 Rnd2 Cooper Beebe
No drama and no debate, Cooper Beebe went about where he belonged in pick No. 58. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick70 Rnd3 Kingsley Suamataia
A straight-up fair deal on Kingsley Suamataia at pick 70, value and slot in agreement. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick71 Rnd3 Patrick Paul
A premium they did not need to pay, Patrick Paul a notch or two before his time. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick106 Rnd4 Spencer Rattler
By-the-book stuff, Spencer Rattler at No. 106 squarely in line with his ranking. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick146 Rnd5 Delmar Glaze
They left a pile of value on the table to take Delmar Glaze this early at pick No. 146. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick169 Rnd5 Dallin Holker
Dallin Holker is a better player than pick 169 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick182 Rnd6 Chau Smith-Wade
Fair-plus on Chau Smith-Wade, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick202 Rnd6 Trey Taylor
A wild overpay on Trey Taylor in No. 202, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick242 Rnd7 Daijun Edwards
Daijun Edwards at the Round 7 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick252 Rnd7 Anim Dankwah
Value said wait; Anim Dankwah in Round 7, Pick 32 says they were not listening. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
