Draft Grade — Titans
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
The Titans won the weekend at the trade table. Grade: B+.

You can hear the double-takes from here. The Titans took Melkart Abou Jaoude at the 185th pick, roughly 42 spots before his name belonged. It nets out to a B+, which feels about right.

The McClain pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. The phones were where this weekend was really won. Breece Hall gives the group a proven body among the projects.

Quantity was the play, for better or worse.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Colin Simmons
No drama and no debate, Colin Simmons went about where he belonged in the Round 1 slot. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick10 Rnd1 Cayden Green
In Round 1, Pick 10 they get a plug-and-play piece up front. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick28 Rnd1 Will Echoles
In pick No. 28 they get a disruptive interior force, outstanding value to boot. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick34 Rnd2 Jadan Baugh
Jadan Baugh at the 34th overall pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick66 Rnd3 LaNorris Sellers
LaNorris Sellers at pick 66 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick103 Rnd4 Jaylen McClain
They robbed the room for Jaylen McClain here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A pick in search of a role on this roster.
Pick129 Rnd4 Cayden Lee
Value said wait; Cayden Lee in the 129th pick says they were not listening. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick141 Rnd5 Sammy Omosigho
Good price on Sammy Omosigho in slot 141, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick181 Rnd6 C.J. Fite
They liked C.J. Fite enough to skip the value, taking him in pick 181. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick185 Rnd6 Melkart Abou Jaoude
They reached a country mile for Melkart Abou Jaoude at the 185th overall pick, and the board is aghast. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick223 Rnd7 Brody Foley
By-the-book stuff, Brody Foley at the Round 7 slot squarely in line with his ranking. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
