Draft Grade — Titans
Overall C+
ValueC+ NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
A weekend that raised as many questions as it answered. The Titans get a C+.

The Titans torched the value chart for Davin Vann, taking him 116 spots sooner than anyone had him slotted. Fine in stretches, shaky in others: a C+.

Getting Mickens where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. For all the activity, offensive lineman went untouched, which is hard to explain. The roster is better shaped than it was, with edge rusher chief among the fixes.

The back end got a real overhaul.

Bottom line, the swing picks will decide whether this ages well.

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Travis Hunter
In the Round 1 slot they get a sticky cover corner at fair value.
Pick35 Rnd2 Donovan Ezeiruaku
They reached a country mile for Donovan Ezeiruaku at Round 2, Pick 3, and the board is aghast. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick102 Rnd4 Will Howard
Will Howard in pick 102 is fair value, right on his grade. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick119 Rnd4 Jah Joyner
They talked themselves into Jah Joyner at the 119th overall pick, and the board did not agree. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick142 Rnd5 Davin Vann
A big swing on Davin Vann at pick No. 142, well ahead of any board in the building. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick168 Rnd5 Ethan Downs
They reached into another round for Ethan Downs, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick180 Rnd6 Jake Briningstool
A top-tier tight end at a bargain, Jake Briningstool in slot 180, plain and simple. It fills a real need, too.
Pick241 Rnd7 R.J. Mickens
A safety of that caliber at the 241st overall pick is the definition of value, full stop. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
