Draft Grade — Titans
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
No fireworks, just a tidy B- for the Titans.

Call it a hunch or call it a gamble, but the Titans spent the 199th overall pick on Giovanni El-Hadi, a name most had 53 spots down the list. The bottom line is a respectable B-.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through interior defensive lineman. That is an edge rusher worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. They went 4 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

The skill positions did well by the weekend.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 Colston Loveland
In pick No. 7 they get a security blanket over the middle, reach and all.
Pick39 Rnd2 Landon Jackson
A quiet steal in No. 39: Landon Jackson for less than the market said. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick71 Rnd3 Rod Moore
A market-rate safety, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Rod Moore. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick103 Rnd4 Derrick Moore
This one needs a full-page explanation: Derrick Moore in the Round 4 slot, miles early. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick135 Rnd5 Donovan Edwards
They paid sticker price for Donovan Edwards in the 135th pick, and that is fine. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick167 Rnd6 Josaiah Stewart
By-the-book stuff, Josaiah Stewart at slot 167 squarely in line with his ranking. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick199 Rnd7 Giovanni El-Hadi
Giovanni El-Hadi in the 199th pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
