Draft Grade — Titans
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Titans let Pearsall fall and pounced. Final grade: B-.

When a board-topper like Ricky Pearsall slides to pick 230, you do not overthink it, and the Titans did not. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B-.

The Harris pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it.

Offensive lineman was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Brock Bowers
Good price on Brock Bowers in pick No. 9, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick41 Rnd2 Cooper Beebe
Cooper Beebe at pick 41 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick109 Rnd4 Roman Wilson
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Roman Wilson. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick146 Rnd5 Tre Harris
Tre Harris in the 146th pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick187 Rnd6 Jaylin Simpson
Steal is underselling it; Jaylin Simpson at No. 187 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick230 Rnd7 Ricky Pearsall
A top-tier wide receiver at a bargain, Ricky Pearsall in the Round 7 slot, plain and simple. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
