Draft Grade — Titans
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB- TradesC FutureA
Grand theft in the Round 6 slot: the Titans steal Collins and grade out a B.

Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the Titans were there to profit. Alfred Collins, the No. 56 name on the board, should have been long gone before No. 188. Good, not great, and the B says as much.

Leaving running back unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. The roster is better shaped than it was, with offensive lineman chief among the fixes.

The future picks help the war chest more than the win-now roster.

Good work on the whole, with running back the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Travis Hunter
In the Round 1 slot they get a potential shutdown corner. Need was not the driver here.
Pick103 Rnd4 Jaxson Dart
Jaxson Dart at the 103rd overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick120 Rnd4 Kyle Kennard
Kyle Kennard at the 120th pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick141 Rnd5 Wyatt Milum
Taking Wyatt Milum in No. 141 is close to grand larceny; an offensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick145 Rnd5 Aireontae Ersery
Circle this one: Aireontae Ersery at slot 145 is a fall that decides a draft. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick162 Rnd5 Jihaad Campbell
The board fumbled Jihaad Campbell all the way to pick No. 162, and they scooped it up. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick167 Rnd5 T.J. Sanders
T.J. Sanders at Round 5, Pick 29 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick178 Rnd6 Trey Amos
Somehow Trey Amos was still sitting there in pick 178, and they pounced on premier cornerback value. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick188 Rnd6 Alfred Collins
Alfred Collins in pick 188 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
