FutureB
The Titans let Melton fall and pounced. Final grade: B. The Titans did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Max Melton fell into the Round 5 slot. Call it a sensible B, earned the boring way.
Hopper has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up.
The dealing nudged the ledger their way without much fuss.
All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.
Pick Analysis
Pick13
Rnd1
Olumuyiwa Fashanu
In pick No. 13 they get a blindside protector. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick38
Rnd2
Bralen Trice
Bralen Trice in the 38th overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick42
Rnd2
Jackson Powers-Johnson
A reach for Jackson Powers-Johnson in the Round 2 slot; a little patience would have been rewarded. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick106
Rnd4
Ainias Smith
They paid up for Ainias Smith at pick 106 when waiting would have done the job. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick112
Rnd4
Kris Abrams-Draine
A reach on Kris Abrams-Draine in No. 112; the board had better options right there. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick130
Rnd4
Ty'Ron Hopper
Ty'Ron Hopper in slot 130 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It fills a real need, too.
Pick144
Rnd5
Max Melton
Taking Max Melton in Round 5, Pick 8 is close to grand larceny; a cornerback that good had no business lasting this long. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick184
Rnd6
Gabe Hall
They left a pile of value on the table to take Gabe Hall this early at the 184th pick. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick190
Rnd6
Jalen Green
Jalen Green in the 190th pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick228
Rnd7
Rasheen Ali
Somehow Rasheen Ali was still sitting there in pick No. 228, and they pounced on premier running back value. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick230
Rnd7
Joshua Cephus
Joshua Cephus in the 230th overall pick is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
