Tennessee Titans

No fireworks, just a tidy B for the Titans.

Somewhere a scout is still blinking. The Titans spent pick No. 144 on Trey Moore, a name the board had a full 36 spots lower. More right than wrong, and a B to match.

The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. The Stowers value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. The trades cost them a sliver of value they did not need to spend.

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

Pick-by-Pick

R1.28 · Pick 28 · Sonny Styles · LB · rank 21
Sonny Styles in the Round 1 slot lands just on the right side of the ledger. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R2.6 · Pick 38 · Joshua Josephs · DE-EDGE · rank 44
Joshua Josephs at the 38th pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R2.15 · Pick 47 · Chris Bell · WR · rank 40
Chris Bell at pick No. 47 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. The roster fit checks out.
R3.2 · Pick 66 · Eli Stowers · TE · rank 53
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Eli Stowers at Round 3, Pick 2 is the proof. It fills a real need, too.
R3.14 · Pick 78 · Mike Washington Jr. · RB · rank 75
A reasonable price with a little left over, Mike Washington Jr. in No. 78. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
R4.1 · Pick 101 · Gracen Halton · DL · rank 126
Value said wait; Gracen Halton in slot 101 says they were not listening. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R5.2 · Pick 142 · Parker Brailsford · C · rank 130
Parker Brailsford is a better player than Round 5, Pick 2 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R5.4 · Pick 144 · Trey Moore · LB-EDGE · rank 180
Trey Moore at the Round 5 slot is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
R6.3 · Pick 184 · DJ Campbell · OG · rank 184
They paid sticker price for DJ Campbell in pick 184, and that is fine. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R6.13 · Pick 194 · VJ Payne · S · rank 196
No edge and no loss on VJ Payne in the 194th pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. It adds depth where they could use a little.
R7.9 · Pick 225 · Eli Heidenreich · WR · rank 242
Eli Heidenreich at No. 225 is a conviction pick that outran the value. A need, and now a little less of one.
