Draft Grade — Titans
Overall B
ValueB NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
The Titans did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B.

The move everyone will second-guess came early. The Titans reached some 57 spots for Rondell Bothroyd, and value like that does not grow back.

The Rice pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. The running back hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the running back spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 Joe Alt
In the 7th overall pick they get a long-term starter on the line. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick39 Rnd2 Amarius Mims
Somehow Amarius Mims was still sitting there in the Round 2 slot, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick107 Rnd4 Brenden Rice
Taking Brenden Rice in slot 107 is close to grand larceny; a wide receiver that good had no business lasting this long. It fills a real need, too.
Pick144 Rnd5 Kris Abrams-Draine
Kris Abrams-Draine at pick 144 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick185 Rnd6 Bryce Foster
Bryce Foster at Round 6, Pick 10 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick228 Rnd7 Rondell Bothroyd
They reached a country mile for Rondell Bothroyd at the 228th pick, and the board is aghast. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
