Draft Grade — Titans
Overall C+
ValueD NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
A weekend that raised as many questions as it answered. The Titans get a C+.

The Titans treated their own grade as gospel and everyone else's as noise, spending No. 38 on Kurtis Rourke a full 100 spots early.

That is a linebacker worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

A perfectly average weekend, for better and for worse.

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 Wyatt Milum
In Round 1, Pick 7 they get a building block for the line. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick38 Rnd2 Kurtis Rourke
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Kurtis Rourke. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick108 Rnd4 Jake Majors
Jake Majors in the Round 4 slot is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick121 Rnd4 Theo Wease Jr.
A big swing on Theo Wease Jr. at pick No. 121, well ahead of any board in the building. It fills a real need, too.
Pick144 Rnd5 Clay Webb
They talked themselves into Clay Webb at slot 144, and the board did not agree. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick167 Rnd5 Brashard Smith
You do not let a running back like Brashard Smith reach the 167th pick and blink. They did not. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick181 Rnd6 Chris Paul Jr.
They barely believed it either: Chris Paul Jr. still on the board at the 181st pick. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick243 Rnd7 Elijhah Badger
Elijhah Badger in pick 243 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
