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

Call it belief, call it a gut call, but Amari Gainer at the 228th pick is 74 spots clear of consensus, and that is the headline. No fireworks, but a solid B.

The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. They will regret leaving running back for another day if the season turns on it. That is a safety worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Rome Odunze. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick38 Rnd2 Kingsley Suamataia
A reach for Kingsley Suamataia in Round 2, Pick 6; a little patience would have been rewarded. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick106 Rnd4 Max Melton
Max Melton in No. 106 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick144 Rnd5 Austin Booker
Austin Booker in pick No. 144 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick184 Rnd6 Kitan Oladapo
Kitan Oladapo at the Round 6 slot is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick228 Rnd7 Amari Gainer
Amari Gainer at slot 228 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
