Draft Grade — Titans
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB- TradesA+ FutureB
The Titans worked the phones like thieves and earned a B+.

The Titans ran the phones like sharks, prying loose value on deal after deal until the ledger was lopsided. Call it a sensible B+, earned the boring way.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is Egbuka. They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

Adding Zaire Franklin by trade rounds out the weekend beyond the rookies.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Kool-Aid McKinstry
In No. 9 they get a press-man option on the boundary at fair value. More want than need.
Pick41 Rnd2 Emeka Egbuka
Emeka Egbuka in the 41st pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick109 Rnd4 Zak Zinter
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Zak Zinter at the 109th overall pick. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick187 Rnd6 Dorian Singer
Dorian Singer at the Round 6 slot is money in the bank, a wide receiver taken below his worth. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick230 Rnd7 Marques Cox
Nice patience on Marques Cox, who had no business lasting to Round 7, Pick 10. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
