2025 nfl mock draft titans make shocking selection at one cam ward

The 2025 quarterback class isn’t the best or the deepest, but the Titans make the most of it with the first pick in our annual community mock draft. Welcome to another SB Nation Community Mock Draft! As we do every year, we gather up one “general manager” from each of our 32 NFL communities to help put on this massive first-round mock draft. The Tennessee Titans and proxy-general manager Jimmy Morris from Music City Miracles are up first, so let’s go ahead and dive into our very first pick! If you want to win in the NFL, you need to have a quarterback. It’s as simple as that.

The Titans bounced between the likes of Will Levis and Mason Rudolph as their starting quarterbacks in 2024 but all that did was earn them the No. 1 overall pick. Not willing to risk being in this situation again anytime soon, Morris is taking Miami quarterback Cam Ward with the first-overall pick in this year’s community mock draft. It is April, and the 2025 NFL Draft is just a few weeks away! What is going to happen in the first round? We take a look at another 2025 NFL Mock Draft to see where top prospects like Cam Ward, Travis Hunter, and Abdul Carter fall.

The Titans keep number 1 and go with Cam Ward to start our latest 2025 NFL Mock Draft. The Browns get an elite edge rusher, while the Patriots add one of the most versatile prospects in recent memory. The Titans have been impressed with Cam Ward during his workouts, and we think it’s enough to keep the No. 1 pick and select him at the top of the draft. Ward can make all the throws and has shown he is very good at moving around in the pocket to extend plays. He is patient and excels at throwing over the middle.

If the Titans hang on to the top pick and select Cam Ward, the Browns will probably go with Abdul Carter to add an elite edge rusher to team up with Myles Garrett. While Cleveland needs a quarterback, they don’t seem to be sold on Shedeur Sanders and likely wouldn’t give up assets to move up to No. 1 to ensure it gets Ward. They settle for Carter, which is a huge win because he’s an outstanding pass rusher with elite initial quickness. The Giants added quarterbacks Russell Wilson (1-year deal) and Jameis Winston (2-year deal) in free agency and will be using Wilson primarily to help transition to the quarterback they take in the 2025 Draft. With Cam Ward going No.

1, the Giants select Shedeur Sanders from Colorado and allow Wilson to play while Sanders gets comfortable. It will take some of the pressure off of Sanders, who improved his touch and downfield accuracy last season. Titans land Cam Ward, Browns reunite Hunter and Sanders in 2025 NFL Draft. The 2025 NFL Draft starts Thursday night with the first round. We break down the NFL Draft one last time with a Mock Draft. Tennessee gets its quarterback for the future in Ward.

Cleveland gets a difference maker on both sides of the ball in Hunter. Something they desperately need. New York Giants decide to take an edge defender in Carter rather than pick Shedeur Sanders with this pick. So... what's going to happen after the Tennessee Titans draft Cam Ward? It's hard to look at the No.

1 pick in April's NFL draft as anything but a foregone conclusion after the decisions made in the first week of NFL free agency. Short of the Titans magically landing Josh Allen, Joe Burrow or a time-traveling Dan Marino plucked out of time from 1983, this team's going to need a quarterback. Ward is the likeliest candidate, and the Titans are in position to grab him. How does this affect the rest of the first round? Let's take a look in The Tennessean's latest 2025 NFL mock draft. Again, no surprise here.

Ward's going to have to start Day 1, and the Titans are going to have to build an offense around his talents. And, to be fair, he's got more than his fair share of talents. Big arm. Anticipates well. Moves well. Thrives in the pocket.

Life in the NFL won't be easy for Ward if the Titans don't get him some more perimeter talent to target. But, let's reiterate: If the Titans don't draft a quarterback here, they're setting themselves up to be right back at the top of the draft again next year. 2025 NFL MOCK DRAFTS: 1.0 | 2.0 | 3.0 | 4.0 | 5.0 | 6.0 | 7.0 | 8.0 | 9.0 | 10.0 The Tennessee Titans finished their 2024 season with a miserable 3-14 record and have already made some drastic moves in the aftermath by firing general manager Ran Carthon. With the search for his replacement in full swing, fans can fantasize what they are going to do with their No. 1 overall selection in the 2025 NFL draft.

Fans not knowing the general manager allows them to debate this, and there is no consensus on what direction the team should take. Some say quarterback, others say edge, and others say best available player. There is really no clear-cut answer within the fan base. Unfortunately, that is also the same question that is thrown about concerning the top prospects. Unlike past years, where there was consensus on a group of prospects, after Colorado Buffaloes cornerback/wide receiver Travis Hunter, there is no clear-cut order in the player rankings. That’s not to say there isn’t talent; there is.

That just means that the players this year and in what order they are selected will likely be more in line with scheme fit than a consensus draft board. Then there is the pressure of having the No. 1 pick and how much impact it will have on a team with multiple needs and limited selections. There are so many questions, and that makes this a fun time. This draft will be exciting and polarizing, especially for fans who aren't embedded inside team facilities to see the big board. NFL draft expert Dan Brugler of The Athletic recently released his latest two-round mock draft and has the Titans making at least part of the fanbase happy.

Super Bowl 59 is about to put a bow on the 2024 NFL season. The next big event for all 32 teams will be the 2025 NFL Draft. But with NFL free agency and the new league year starting in March, it won't be long before April 25, when the first round of the draft will go down in Green Bay. Here are the latest projections for every team with the order set to be set. The Titans, like other teams, should see that Ward is standing out a bit when evaluating him with Shedeur Sanders. Ward has the bonus of dynamic athleticism, including a polished, accurate arm, which gives some Jayden Daniels vibes in this year's class.

The Titans can't mess around with Will Levis or a veteran bridge when they need their true franchise QB. Abdul Carter, EDGE, Penn State (6-3, 250 pounds) The Tennessee Titans select quarterback Cam Ward in Round 1 of the 2025 NFL Draft with the No. 1 overall pick. Draftees from the 2025 NFL Draft watch video letters from their family and friends. The "NFL GameDay Final" crew list their favorite moments from the 2025 NFL Draft.

Cleveland Browns general manager Andrew Berry and head coach Kevin Stefanski give some initial impressions of quarterback Shedeur Sanders after using the 144th overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft to select him. The New England Patriots make Memphis defensive back Kobee Minor "Mr. Irrelevant" in Round 7 of the 2025 NFL Draft with the No. 257 overall and final pick (via a trade with the Kansas City Chiefs).
