Grade: C

After very aggressive drafts of late, the Titans played it straight, keeping most of their picks and adding a 2021 sixth-rounder. But did they get enough in return? Wilson fills a need but might not be ready to play, and Fulton has concerns despite being good value. On the plus side, Evans can fly, an ideal complement to Derrick Henry. Also boosting the grade is that missing fourth-round pick… which went to Miami last year for Ryan Tannehill.

Best pick
Fulton is far from a perfect prospect — he relies too much on his ability to recover — but he was nice get after being considered a first-round pick by many. It should also take pressure off him to be the third cornerback behind Adoree’ Jackson and Malcolm Butler.

Upside pick
Wilson’s tape alone does not merit a first-round pick, but there are only so many people that big who can move the way he does. A redshirt sophomore coming out, he still needs seasoning, but the ceiling is very high. He could develop behind Dennis Kelly early on.
