Draft Grade — Titans
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Titans let Gordon II fall into their laps, and walked away with a B.

When a board-topper like Ollie Gordon II slides to the 241st overall pick, you do not overthink it, and the Titans did not.

A whole weekend of picks and interior defensive lineman is somehow still a want. Offensive lineman was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but interior defensive lineman.

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Abdul Carter
In pick 1 they get a disruptor off the edge at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick35 Rnd2 Malaki Starks
The board had Malaki Starks higher than the 35th overall pick, and the safety fell to them anyway. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick102 Rnd4 Tez Johnson
By-the-book stuff, Tez Johnson at the 102nd pick squarely in line with his ranking. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick119 Rnd4 Donovan Jackson
Donovan Jackson in No. 119 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick142 Rnd5 Tory Horton
Somehow Tory Horton was still sitting there in pick No. 142, and they pounced on premier wide receiver value. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick168 Rnd5 Mello Dotson
Mello Dotson at slot 168 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick180 Rnd6 Jay Higgins
Steal is underselling it; Jay Higgins at Round 6, Pick 2 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick241 Rnd7 Ollie Gordon II
A running back of that caliber at the Round 7 slot is the definition of value, full stop. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
