Draft Grade — Titans
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Titans a B-.

The Titans did not so much draft Davin Vann as overpay for him, 102 picks clear of his grade. It sets an uneasy tone for the weekend. The bottom line is a respectable B-.

However the rest shakes out, Shough at that price is a win they earned. Leaving interior defensive lineman unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

They went 4 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Travis Hunter
They paid sticker price for Travis Hunter in the Round 1 slot, and that is fine. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick35 Rnd2 Landon Jackson
Landon Jackson in pick 35 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick103 Rnd4 Devin Neal
Devin Neal at the 103rd overall pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick120 Rnd4 Will Howard
A top-tier quarterback at a bargain, Will Howard in pick No. 120, plain and simple. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick141 Rnd5 Emery Jones Jr.
They will replay Emery Jones Jr. at No. 141 for years; that is how good the value is. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick167 Rnd5 Davin Vann
Davin Vann at the 167th pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick178 Rnd6 Ajani Cornelius
They did well to land Ajani Cornelius in pick No. 178, just ahead of his grade. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick188 Rnd6 Tyler Shough
Tyler Shough at the Round 6 slot is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It fills a real need, too.
