Draft Grade — Titans
Overall D-
ValueB- NeedB TradesF FutureB-
The Titans found their guy under center in Sanders: D-.

The phones were a trap the Titans kept walking into, shipping out surplus on nearly every deal. A weekend that fought the value and lost, hence the D-.

Everything downstream of Shedeur Sanders depends on Shedeur Sanders, and the building knows it. Every board in the league had Sanders lower, and that gap is the story. Leaving linebacker unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

However the rest shakes out, Majors at that price is a win they earned.

In short, the board sent warnings, and they will be hoping it was wrong.

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Shedeur Sanders
In the Round 1 slot they get the arm they will build around. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick26 Rnd1 Emeka Egbuka
In pick No. 26 they get a true top target at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick47 Rnd2 Josaiah Stewart
They paid sticker price for Josaiah Stewart in Round 2, Pick 15, and that is fine. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick78 Rnd3 Jayden Higgins
Nothing to complain about; Jayden Higgins went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. The roster fit checks out.
Pick101 Rnd3 Mason Taylor
Steal is underselling it; Mason Taylor at No. 101 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It fills a real need, too.
Pick118 Rnd4 Ajani Cornelius
A reasonable price with a little left over, Ajani Cornelius in slot 118. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick120 Rnd4 Shemar Turner
Shemar Turner in pick 120 is fair value, right on his grade. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick140 Rnd5 Jake Majors
Jake Majors at the 140th overall pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick167 Rnd5 Quincy Riley
A premium they did not need to pay, Quincy Riley a notch or two before his time. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick176 Rnd6 Ollie Gordon II
No edge and no loss on Ollie Gordon II in Round 6, Pick 1; it is a wash and a sensible one. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick239 Rnd7 Shilo Sanders
They talked themselves into Shilo Sanders at the 239th overall pick, and the board did not agree. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
