Grading the 2001 Tennessee Titans Draft
The Titans did not have a 1st round draft pick in 2001 because they traded it acquire Kevin Carter. That move did not pay off much in 2001 when Carter had just 2 sacks. Carter rallied to have 10 sacks in 2002.
Round 2 Pick #60- Andre Dyson, CB, Utah
Dyson was a very good 2nd round pick. He had 16 picks in 4 seasons with the Titans.
Grade: A
Round 3 Pick #90- Shad Meier, TE, Kansas State
Meier was with the Titans for 4 seasons and was a decent contributor. His career yards per catch average was 8 which is not very good.
Grade: C-
Round 4 Pick #124- Justin McCareins, WR, Northern Illinois
McCareins was an excellent 4th round pick. Hopefully he will prove to be an even better draft pick in 2008.
Grade: A
Round 5 Pick #159- Eddie Berlin, WR, Northern Iowa
The biggest thing I remember about Berlin is in 2003 against the Colts he fumbled back-to-back kickoffs. I was really mad at him that day. He was actually a decent 5th round pick.
Grade: B
Round 6 Pick #192- Dan Alexander, RB, Nebraska
Alexander never made it as a running back for the Titans. He did play a little special teams so the pick wasn't a total waste.
Grade: C
Round 6 Pick #199- Adam Haayer, T, Minnesota
Haayer was cut by the Titans before the season started. He was picked up by the Vikings and played for them a little bit.
Grade: C
Round 7 Pick #232- Keith Adams, LB, Clemson
Adams was also cut before the 2001 season, but he is still in the league with the Browns. I guess that means the Titans made a pretty good pick but did a lousy job of evaluating his talent on the NFL field.
Grade: B
This wasn't a terrible draft, but it wasn't great either. Dyson and McCareins were solid picks but there wasn't a lot of help from the rest of the draft.

What?
This draft was terrible plus how can you rate these picks so high. Eddie berline a B he maybe played slot reciever for us one year the rest he was the 4th or 5th guy that was a joke hes not even in the league anymore. and keith adams a B he made 1 tackle last year for the browns and started maybe two years for the cowboys how is he a B thats stupid. I wouldnt consider McCareins or Dyson A draft picks either A guys either McCareins career is dead and Dyson had a really good start with us but now he went to hell and made 12 tackles for the Jets hes a Dime corner now All the rest of the guys i havent named in this draft are out of the league ha you should really consider how high you rate our drafts i wouldnt consider someone who gets cut and is out of the league to be above a D
