Draft Grade — Titans
Overall B+
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureA
Best value of the weekend goes to the Titans for Neal: B+.

The Titans spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Devin Neal, the No. 81 name on the board, in the 176th pick. A dependable weekend that grades out a B+.

The Greene reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. On the needs board they went 8 of 8, with offensive lineman the one that mattered most. Stockpiling next year's capital is patient, if unglamorous, asset work.

Value over need was the throughline, for better and worse.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Abdul Carter
In the Round 1 slot they get juice off the edge. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick33 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
They robbed the room for Nick Emmanwori here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick35 Rnd2 Emeka Egbuka
A tidy bit of business in pick 35, where Emeka Egbuka graded well above the range. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick38 Rnd2 Tyler Warren
They barely believed it either: Tyler Warren still on the board at slot 38. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick101 Rnd3 Aeneas Peebles
A interior defensive lineman of that caliber at Round 3, Pick 37 is the definition of value, full stop. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick104 Rnd4 Jake Majors
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Jake Majors at the 104th overall pick is the proof. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick118 Rnd4 Danny Stutsman
Steal is underselling it; Danny Stutsman at No. 118 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick140 Rnd5 Kyren Lacy
Kyren Lacy in the 140th pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick167 Rnd5 Joshua Gray
They took Joshua Gray at par in pick No. 167, which is nothing to complain about. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick176 Rnd6 Devin Neal
They will replay Devin Neal at No. 176 for years; that is how good the value is. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick239 Rnd7 Garrett Greene
Garrett Greene at slot 239 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
