Draft Grade — Titans
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Titans kept it disciplined and banked a B-.

Call it belief, call it a gut call, but Jamari Thrash at the Round 5 slot is 24 spots clear of consensus, and that is the headline. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B-.

Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. Fiske at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster.

The roster is better shaped than it was, with offensive lineman chief among the fixes.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Kool-Aid McKinstry
In No. 9 they get a lockdown presence outside. Need was not the driver here.
Pick41 Rnd2 Troy Fautanu
No edge and no loss on Troy Fautanu in pick 41; it is a wash and a sensible one. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick109 Rnd4 Tate Ratledge
They paid sticker price for Tate Ratledge in the 109th overall pick, and that is fine. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick146 Rnd5 Jamari Thrash
Jamari Thrash in slot 146 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick187 Rnd6 Braden Fiske
Braden Fiske slid further than he should have, and Round 6, Pick 12 is lovely value for the interior defensive lineman. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick230 Rnd7 Joshua Gray
They paid a round early for Joshua Gray in pick No. 230, more than the board wanted. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
