Draft Grade — Titans
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesC FutureA+
The Titans let Hampton fall into their laps, and walked away with a B.

When a board-topper like Omarion Hampton slides to pick 97, you do not overthink it, and the Titans did not. Good, not great, and the B says as much.

Crenshaw-Dickson has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

The Titans clearly valued win-now help, adding bodies who have done it before.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Emeka Egbuka
In the 8th overall pick they get a go-to option on the outside. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick25 Rnd1 Will Johnson
In slot 25 they get a ballhawk on the outside at fair value. More want than need.
Pick39 Rnd2 Jahdae Barron
They will replay Jahdae Barron at pick No. 39 for years; that is how good the value is. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick97 Rnd3 Omarion Hampton
Somehow Omarion Hampton was still sitting there in the 97th pick, and they pounced on premier running back value. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick103 Rnd4 Smael Mondon Jr.
Smael Mondon Jr. in the Round 4 slot should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. The roster fit checks out.
Pick112 Rnd4 Tyler Warren
Tyler Warren in No. 112 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick118 Rnd4 Jay Higgins
You do not let a linebacker like Jay Higgins reach pick 118 and blink. They did not. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick140 Rnd5 Dane Key
They took Dane Key at par in Round 5, Pick 2, which is nothing to complain about. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick142 Rnd5 Cobee Bryant
They left a pile of value on the table to take Cobee Bryant this early at Round 5, Pick 4. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick168 Rnd5 Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson
A big swing on Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson at slot 168, well ahead of any board in the building. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick178 Rnd6 Connor Colby
Circle this one: Connor Colby at pick No. 178 is a fall that decides a draft. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick244 Rnd7 Graham Mertz
They reached into another round for Graham Mertz, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
