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

The tape said wait; the Titans did not. Jordan Davis went at the 227th pick, a good 132 picks before the board was ready. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B+.

The James steal is the beam this whole class leans on. They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast.

The running back hole is the one line item this class does not answer. It is not that James is a bad player; it is that the Titans had louder needs to answer first.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Brock Bowers
In No. 18 they get a seam-stretching tight end, outstanding value to boot. A real need, handled.
Pick38 Rnd2 Kool-Aid McKinstry
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Kool-Aid McKinstry at the 38th overall pick is the proof. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick42 Rnd2 JC Latham
They will replay JC Latham at Round 2, Pick 10 for years; that is how good the value is. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick106 Rnd4 Jermaine Burton
You do not let a wide receiver like Jermaine Burton reach slot 106 and blink. They did not. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick108 Rnd4 DJ James
A surprising call. With running back and quarterback still to address, they spent pick 108 on DJ James, a cornerback they were not short of.
Pick131 Rnd4 McKinnley Jackson
A tidy bit of business in the 131st pick, where McKinnley Jackson graded well above the range. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick146 Rnd5 Beau Brade
They let Beau Brade come to them and pounced at pick No. 146. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick182 Rnd6 Cornelius Johnson
They took Cornelius Johnson at par in Round 6, Pick 7, which is nothing to complain about. The roster fit checks out.
Pick221 Rnd7 Steele Chambers
The board fumbled Steele Chambers all the way to the 221st pick, and they scooped it up. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick227 Rnd7 Jordan Davis
A wild overpay on Jordan Davis in pick 227, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick242 Rnd7 Trente Jones
Trente Jones at slot 242 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
