Draft Grade — Titans
Overall D
ValueB NeedB TradesF FutureA
The Titans drew a line under the quarterback search with Ward: D.

The Titans spent real capital to be 88 picks early on Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson, and the board is going to hold them to it. The board pushed back all weekend, and the D is the result.

Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Fitzgerald. Everything downstream of Cam Ward depends on Cam Ward, and the building knows it. The trades bled value they could not afford to lose.

The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, edge rusher very much included.

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 Cam Ward
In slot 3 they get a passer to set the clock by. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick34 Rnd2 Tyler Warren
Somehow Tyler Warren was still sitting there in Round 2, Pick 2, and they pounced on premier tight end value. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick35 Rnd2 Matthew Golden
Matthew Golden at pick No. 35 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick37 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
A safety of that caliber at pick 37 is the definition of value, full stop. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick101 Rnd3 Jack Bech
Jack Bech in the Round 3 slot is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick117 Rnd4 Demetrius Knight Jr.
A top-tier linebacker at a bargain, Demetrius Knight Jr. in the 117th pick, plain and simple. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick118 Rnd4 Barrett Carter
Barrett Carter in slot 118 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick140 Rnd5 Jake Majors
Jake Majors in pick No. 140 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick152 Rnd5 Howard Cross III
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Howard Cross III. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick167 Rnd5 Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson
Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson at No. 167 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick178 Rnd6 Devin Neal
The board fumbled Devin Neal all the way to the 178th overall pick, and they scooped it up. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick212 Rnd6 Ryan Fitzgerald
Ryan Fitzgerald at the Round 6 slot is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick216 Rnd6 Jaylen Reed
Circle this one: Jaylen Reed at the 216th pick is a fall that decides a draft. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick239 Rnd7 Jamon Dumas-Johnson
Jamon Dumas-Johnson at Round 7, Pick 23 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A need, and now a little less of one.
