Draft Grade — Titans
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
No fireworks, just a tidy B- for the Titans.

The move everyone will second-guess came early. The Titans reached some 70 spots for Aaron Lewis, and value like that does not grow back. A dependable weekend that grades out a B-.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is Mahogany. That running back hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. They went 3 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the running back spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 Malik Nabers
In the 7th pick they get a true top target. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick38 Rnd2 Kingsley Suamataia
Kingsley Suamataia at pick No. 38 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick106 Rnd4 Christian Mahogany
Christian Mahogany in No. 106 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick144 Rnd5 Jaylin Simpson
Jaylin Simpson at the Round 5 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick184 Rnd6 Kitan Oladapo
Steal is underselling it; Kitan Oladapo at Round 6, Pick 9 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick228 Rnd7 Aaron Lewis
They reached a country mile for Aaron Lewis at the 228th overall pick, and the board is aghast. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
