Draft Grade — Titans
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Titans drew a line under the quarterback search with Ward: B-.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Danny Stutsman, slot 177, roughly 91 picks past where he belonged.

The McCoy pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. So much rides on Cam Ward that the rest of the class almost grades on a curve behind him. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Cam Ward
In Round 1, Pick 1 they get their quarterback of the future at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick35 Rnd2 Emeka Egbuka
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Emeka Egbuka at the 35th pick is the proof. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick102 Rnd4 Jake Majors
Nice patience on Jake Majors, who had no business lasting to pick 102. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick119 Rnd4 Deontae Lawson
A top-tier linebacker at a bargain, Deontae Lawson in the Round 4 slot, plain and simple. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick140 Rnd5 Luke Kandra
Luke Kandra in Round 5, Pick 3 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick166 Rnd5 Domani Jackson
Taking Domani Jackson in No. 166 is close to grand larceny; a cornerback that good had no business lasting this long. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick177 Rnd6 Danny Stutsman
Danny Stutsman in pick No. 177 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick240 Rnd7 Bru McCoy
They left a pile of value on the table to take Bru McCoy this early at the 240th overall pick. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
