Draft Grade — Titans
Overall B+
ValueA NeedB- TradesA+ FutureB-
The Titans robbed the room for Sanders. Final grade: B+.

The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Titans watched Raheim Sanders slide 85 picks past his grade and did not hesitate. No fireworks, but a solid B+.

The cost of the Howard reach is exactly the players who went right after him. The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. It is not that Mukuba is a bad player; it is that the Titans had louder needs to answer first.

The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 Will Johnson
In the 15th pick they get a sticky cover corner. More want than need.
Pick21 Rnd1 Malaki Starks
In pick 21 they get an enforcer at safety, outstanding value to boot. Need was not the driver here.
Pick26 Rnd1 Luther Burden III
In No. 26 they get a No. 1 receiver, and a steal at that. A real need, handled.
Pick40 Rnd2 Tyler Warren
Steal is underselling it; Tyler Warren at Round 2, Pick 8 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick46 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
Jalon Walker in the 46th overall pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick71 Rnd3 Kaleb Johnson
A running back of that caliber at slot 71 is the definition of value, full stop. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick90 Rnd3 Andrew Mukuba
They zigged when the board said zag, taking Andrew Mukuba at safety with edge rusher and interior defensive lineman open.
Pick93 Rnd3 Will Howard
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Will Howard well ahead of where he belonged. It fills a real need, too.
Pick100 Rnd3 Harold Fannin Jr.
Taking Harold Fannin Jr. in No. 100 is close to grand larceny; a tight end that good had no business lasting this long. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick102 Rnd4 TreVeyon Henderson
The board fumbled TreVeyon Henderson all the way to the 102nd overall pick, and they scooped it up. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick117 Rnd4 Quinshon Judkins
Quinshon Judkins in pick No. 117 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick119 Rnd4 Barrett Carter
Barrett Carter in Round 4, Pick 18 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick142 Rnd5 Chris Paul Jr.
Chris Paul Jr. at the 142nd pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick168 Rnd5 Jared Wilson
Jared Wilson at pick 168 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick180 Rnd6 Cam Skattebo
A top-tier running back at a bargain, Cam Skattebo in slot 180, plain and simple. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick241 Rnd7 Raheim Sanders
They will replay Raheim Sanders at the Round 7 slot for years; that is how good the value is. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
