Draft Grade — Titans
Overall A-
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureA+
The Titans won the weekend at the trade table. Grade: A-.

If you want a masterclass in dealing, watch the Titans, who turned every swap into a profit this weekend. Very little went wrong, and the A- is earned.

They are betting Tagovailoa proves the room right and everyone else wrong. That Braswell pick is the receipt they will wave around later. It is not that DeJean is a bad player; it is that the Titans had louder needs to answer first.

They will regret leaving running back for another day if the season turns on it.

A strong weekend's work, and a rare one to find this little fault with.

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 JC Latham
In the 14th overall pick they get a cornerstone up front at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick40 Rnd2 Kamari Lassiter
No drama and no debate, Kamari Lassiter went about where he belonged in pick 40. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick59 Rnd2 Cooper DeJean
They zigged when the board said zag, taking Cooper DeJean at cornerback with running back, interior defensive lineman and other spots open.
Pick74 Rnd3 Caelen Carson
A want over a need in Round 3, Pick 10: Caelen Carson adds a cornerback while running back, interior defensive lineman and other spots keeps waiting.
Pick89 Rnd3 Chris Braswell
Chris Braswell is a better player than the 89th pick suggests; smart patience, rewarded. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick106 Rnd4 Tate Ratledge
By-the-book stuff, Tate Ratledge at the Round 4 slot squarely in line with his ranking. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick126 Rnd4 Reuben Fatheree II
Reuben Fatheree II in pick No. 126 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick143 Rnd5 Tyler Guyton
They paid sticker price for Tyler Guyton in slot 143, and that is fine. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick173 Rnd5 Mike Sainristil
Mike Sainristil in pick 173 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick184 Rnd6 Cam Hart
A clean, defensible pick in the 184th pick with a little surplus value in Cam Hart. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick186 Rnd6 Jacob Cowing
Jacob Cowing at Round 6, Pick 11 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick192 Rnd6 Tre Harris
Tre Harris at the Round 6 slot jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick227 Rnd7 Taulia Tagovailoa
Taulia Tagovailoa at slot 227 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick247 Rnd7 Jack Howell
Jack Howell at the 247th overall pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the safety. A minor need, but a need all the same.
