Draft Grade — Titans
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A passer of the future in Ward, and a B-, for the Titans.

They finally answered the question that shadows every other one. Cam Ward is the Titans' quarterback, full stop.

Getting Johnson where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. That running back hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

They are betting Baron proves the room right and everyone else wrong.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Cam Ward
In No. 1 they get a passer to set the clock by. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick35 Rnd2 Will Johnson
Will Johnson at the Round 2 slot is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick103 Rnd4 Tory Horton
Tory Horton at the 103rd overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick120 Rnd4 Billy Bowman Jr.
Billy Bowman Jr. in pick No. 120 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick141 Rnd5 Tyler Baron
This one needs a full-page explanation: Tyler Baron in the 141st pick, miles early. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick167 Rnd5 Jack Nelson
They liked Jack Nelson enough to skip the value, taking him in pick 167. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick178 Rnd6 Vernon Broughton
A conviction pick on Vernon Broughton at Round 6, Pick 2 that the board grades a round light. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick188 Rnd6 Jake Briningstool
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Jake Briningstool at slot 188. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
