AussieTitanFan08 Posted May 2, 2021 Report Share Posted May 2, 2021 Pretty sure PFF will be the only site that gives the Titans draft an A rating. TENNESSEE TITANS R1 (22): CB Caleb Farley, Virginia Tech R2 (53): OT Dillon Radunz, North Dakota State R3 (92): LB Monty Rice, Georgia R3 (100): SCB Elijah Molden, Washington R4 (109): WR Dez Fitzpatrick, Louisville R4 (135): EDGE Rashad Weaver, Pittsburgh R6 (205): WR Racey McMath, LSU R6 (215): S Brady Breeze, Oregon Day 1: If Farley had a clean medical report, he would have gone within the first 10 picks. He suffered a torn ACL in 2017, had a back operation in 2019 and then had another surgery in late March. That makes this a risky bet, but if he stays healthy, this is a huge steal. His 6-foot-2, 207-pound frame with 33 ⅜-inch arms is ideal for an NFL corner. Farley is also capable of running a sub-4.3-second 40-yard dash and boasts the production to back those traits up. He earned a 90.5 coverage grade in his final college season in 2019. Day 2: Tennessee’s last swing at an offensive tackle was a disaster, as 2020 first-round pick Isaiah Wilson played just three snaps on offense — all kneel-downs — before he ran himself out of town. Dillon Radunz is a little undersized and underweight but has exceptional movement skills and the tools to be an elite pass-blocker, even if it could take a period of time to get there. Monty Rice has been flying around finding the football between the hedges for as long we can remember, but he lost his starting spot to Nakobe Dean this past season. He’ll need to figure out what’s happening in front of him at a much higher level in the NFL, but at least he has the athleticism to work with at the pro level. He’s a great tackler, but he just needs to read the game better. Molden can come in and be an excellent slot cornerback, especially on a team looking to rebuild its defensive backfield. Molden, who was the highest-graded slot corner of the PFF College era, was a borderline first-round talent and falls to the bottom of the third. There’s no doubt that this is a great pick, and now Molden and Caleb Farley could change the outlook of the Titans’ season. Molden is a playmaker and a great tackler — he has so much value at this pick it’s incredible. Day 3: The Titans got exceptional value here by selecting Rashad Weaver, PFF’s EDGE10 and the 63rd-ranked prospect in this class. He has power, ideal size/length and technical refinement, but he’s not going to impress from an athletic standpoint. He is also on the older side. Still, he has an incredibly high floor and should be able to make an impact right away. After coming off a torn ACL, Weaver posted a 90.0 pass-rush grade this past year.

Mythos27 Posted May 2, 2021 Report Share Posted May 2, 2021 Farley makes it a B for me. It would be C without him. That said, we should get more out of these guys than last year's rookies. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post socaltitan Posted May 2, 2021 Popular Post Report Share Posted May 2, 2021 Always thought grades were dumb. These guys haven't taken a snap yet. I prefer initial impressions. Like the Farley, Radunz, Molden, and Weaver picks. Can see Molden being another steal like Hooker. A little meh on the others. Fills a need, just not real excited or upset about it.

Popular Post rns90 Posted May 2, 2021 Popular Post Report Share Posted May 2, 2021 I still remember 2003 when we got Woolfolk, Calico, Brown etc and were given A's by the analysts. Donnie Nickey ended up being the guy that lasted the most with the Titans and in the NFL.

AvgJoe Posted May 2, 2021 Report Share Posted May 2, 2021 Grading a Draft before Year 4 is usually dumb, but initial impression I give it a B. I really like the picks for the Defense. abenjami, and oldschool 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Somedude Posted May 2, 2021 Report Share Posted May 2, 2021 D for now and if it ends up great in a year or two this post will be graded D for Dumbass. If it ages well then this post gets three grades. C.A.C. Class A Cunt. TrueLuvYaBlue77 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
