Although the Titans don’t have a super-talented quarterback room, Simmons has advocated for them to draft Abdul Carter with the No. 1 pick, <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/tennessee-titans/titans-news-tennessee-urged-bypass-cam-ward-former-mvp">bypassing Cam Ward or Shedeur Sanders</a>. And with just under two weeks until the 2025 NFL Draft, Simmons <a href="https://x.com/NFLonCBS/status/1910774324451303855" rel="noopener">made his pitch</a> for the Penn State game wrecker once again.</p><p>“At the end of the day, I’m also a defensive player, too, and I’ve been telling everybody that I need an EDGE player,” Simmons said via the NFL on CBS account on X. “The Titans just got rid of one of my EDGE players in Harold Landry, so I wouldn’t be mad if we went and got my guy from Penn State, Abdul Carter.”</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">Jeffery Simmons on who he would like the Titans to draft with the No. 1 overall pick:</p><p>"I think [Cam Ward] and [Shedeur Sanders] are both just great QBs…But at the end of the day, I'm also a defensive player, too…I wouldn't be mad if we went and got [Abdul Carter]." <a href="https://t.co/aHAG0tSE1l">pic.twitter.com/aHAG0tSE1l</a></p><p>— NFL on CBS 🏈 (@NFLonCBS) <a href="https://twitter.com/NFLonCBS/status/1910774324451303855?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">April 11, 2025</a></p></blockquote><p><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p></figure><p>Simmons — as a longtime defensive player with Tennessee — wants someone on the EDGE who can wreak havoc alongside him and T’ondre Sweat, considering <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/nfl-stories/nfl-rumors-2025-qb-draft-class-slapped-harsh-2024-reality">how weak the quarterback class is</a>. And as one of the <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/nfl-stories/2025-nfl-draft-order-prospects-targets">best prospects in the 2025 NFL Draft</a>, the Titans would be getting a stud with Carter — if that’s who they decide to choose with the No. 1 pick.</p><p>Now, although Simmons has pitched for the Titans to draft Carter, he sees both Cam Ward and Shedeur Sanders as potential options with the No. 1 pick, too.</p><p>“I mean, I’m a big fan of [Cam Ward]’s game,” Simmons added. “I’ve been seeing a lot of his stuff on social media, been seeing even his Pro Day. The confidence he has as a player, you know, that’s the type of teammate you want to have, of course. His style of play is one of none. I think him and Shedeur both is great quarterbacks. We talk about generational quarterback, and you could put them in that category.”</p><p>Before anything else, Simmons might want to slow down on the “generational quarterback” speak a little. While Shedeur could be a fine NFL quarterback,  <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/nfl-rumors-why-several-execs-dont-view-shedeur-sanders-as-a-first-round-pick">Sanders doesn’t even have a first-round grade</a> from some NFL executives. Now, that’s not to say he can’t be good in the NFL, but it’s an interesting piece of the puzzle to consider when evaluating him and Ward as potential franchise quarterbacks.</p><p>This time of year is most susceptible to false news being intentionally leaked by teams, and without full confirmation on who the Titans are taking, these appear to be the three most likely options:</p><ol><li>Select Cam Ward</li><li>Select Abdul Carter</li><li>Trade down from No. 1</li></ol><p>Could the Titans also select Travis Hunter out of Colorado? Sure, nearly anything is possible. But, selecting Hunter over Carter or Ward might be the third or fourth option for them.</p><p>All-in-all, Jeffery Simmons is leaving no doubt on who he wants the Titans to select with the No. 1 pick in the 2025 NFL Draft: Abdul Carter. It’ll be interesting to see if they listen to their defensive captain or not.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

However, that does not mean he won’t be an excellent pro, or that he isn’t worth trading up for.</p><p>In fact, NFL insider Jordan Schultz reported that one <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/ncaa-football/ohio-state-football-news-emeka-egbuka-favorable-comparison-nfc-north-pro-bowler-amon-ra-st-brown">Big Ten coach compared Egbuka to Lions WR Amon-Ra St. Brown</a>.</p><p>“Egbuka might be the most underrated offensive player in the draft right now,” the coach said. “He’s smart as s***. In ’12’ personnel, he went outside, too. When you’re evaluating him, you should be evaluating everything he does. Mid-to-high 4.4’s (40), straight ‘A’ student, the best interview. Don’t overthink it.”</p><p>Titans fans would certainly be thrilled to add a player of St. Brown’s talent. Hopefully he is still available towards the end of the first round.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

There is not much suspense over who they will pick with that top selection, but the rest of the draft could go anywhere. The Titans have holes all over their roster and have plenty of picks to do it. Using Pro Football Network’s mock draft simulator, who makes their way to Nashville in the draft? Let’s find out.</p><p>The Titans <a href="https://www.tennesseetitans.com/news/where-the-titans-are-scheduled-to-pick-in-each-round-of-the-2025-nfl-draft" rel="noopener">have eight picks</a> in the 2o25 NFL Draft, including the first pick. They have their own second rounder, two fourths, two fifths, and two sixths. Their third-round pick is the property of the<a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/titans-news-brian-callahan-keeps-it-real-on-huge-addition-of-ljarius-sneed"> Kansas City Chiefs from the L’Jarius Snead trade</a>. Pro Football Network lists their needs as quarterback, wide receiver, edge rusher, cornerback, and linebacker. With the most important positions in need of talent, the Titans have to crush this draft.</p><p>Who will the Titans take in the 2025 NFL Draft? How would you change the picks if you were the GM? Let’s look at this MFL Mock Draft Simulator.</p><h2><b>No surprises for the Titans in Round 1</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/Cam-Ward-at-Miami-2.jpg"><figcaption>Nathan Ray Seebeck-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>The PFN mock draft simulator has the Titans taking <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/titans-rumors-no-1-pick-dilemma-cam-ward-private-workout">University of Miami quarterback Cam Ward</a> first overall. This pick is looking more and more like a formality by the day, as Tennessee sent a large group to Ward’s pro day in Florida. That included controlling owner Amy Adams Strunk in an unprecedented move. The Titans feel like they have their quarterback of the future in Cam Ward.</p><p>Ward has emerged from a mediocre quarterback class to be the consensus number one pick in this draft. The Titans need a signal-caller after a miserable season from Mason Rudolph and Will Levis. They think they found their quarterback in Ward but do not have a lot around him to succeed. Tony Pollard is a solid running back, but it is a bare cupboard outside of that. We’ll see if they get Ward any targets later in the draft.</p><h2><b>Improving the defense in Round 2</b></h2><p>For all of the talk about the Titans quarterback situation this draft season, their defense could use an improvement as well. They have the 35th overall pick, the third pick in the round, and improve that defense with Arkansas edge rusher Landon Jackson. He racked up 16 sacks in three years with the Razorbacks after one poor season at LSU. If Jackson comes in and starts immediately, that is a great use of a second-rounder.</p><p>The Titans did pass on a couple of players who could have helped Ward out. Minnesota tackle Aireontae Ersery goes right after Jackson to the Jaguars, running backs Quinshon Judkins and Omarvion Hampton were available, and multiple wideouts were taken in the second. But if Jackson stabilizes their defense, it’s a pick well spent.</p><h2><b>Trading down in the fourth</b></h2><p>The Titans do not trade back into the third round, so we advance to the fourth, where they have two picks. Instead of using the 103rd overall pick, they traded it to the Arizona Cardinals for picks 115 and 152. Arizona takes Kentucky defensive tackle Deone Walker with the pick. At 115th, the Titans make a curious pick, <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/texas-football-news-quinn-ewers-reveals-why-he-thinks-hes-best-qb-draft-class">drafting Texas quarterback Quinn Ewers</a>.</p><p>Ewers was a solid quarterback in college, but it is odd to make this pick after drafting Ward. Washington did this many moons ago, taking Robert Griffin III second overall and Kirk Cousins later. But there were injury concerns with Griffin that Ward does not have. With a team so bereft of talent, this pick would have been better used on an offensive weapon.</p><p>The Titans are back on the clock at 120. In the four picks between their selections, a running back, offensive tackle, and wide receiver have come off the board. So new GM Mike Borgonzi adds to the defense and picks Virginia Tech edge rusher Antwaun Powell-Ryland. He had an amazing 16-sack season for the Hokies that could be huge for the Tennessee defense. Adding athletes at an important position is never a bad idea this late in the draft.</p><h2>Three picks in the fifth</h2><p>The Titans now have three picks in the fifth round of the NFL Draft after the trade with the Cardinals. They start at 141st overall and select another edge rusher, Jared Ivey from Ole Miss. A five-year college player, Ivey continued to ascend throughout his career. He put up seven sacks last year for the Rebels. Edge is an important position, but Borgonzi is running out of spaces to play these guys.</p><p>The 152nd pick is the one the Titans picked up from the Cardinals. Finally, they give Ward a weapon to use in the passing game with Clemson tight end Jake Briningstool. He had 530 yards on 49 receptions with seven touchdowns for the Tigers last year. This pick also improves their blocking, which needs a boost from last year.</p><p>Borgonzi and the Titans flip to the other side of the ball with the 167th pick, taking Kitan Crawford, the safety from Nevada. After four years at Texas, he transferred to Nevada and dominated in the Mountain West. After racking up an incredible 76 tackles and a pick-six last year, he is in the draft. Maybe he can become a special-teams star in addition to playing on defense for the Titans.</p><h2><b>The Titans finish it off in the sixth</b></h2><p>The Titans have two picks in the sixth round to finish off the draft. With the 178th overall pick, they give Ward another target. Nick Nash played six college seasons, all at San Jose State, changing from a quarterback to wide receiver three years in. His wideout stats are not great, but he can be a gadget player for Tennessee.</p><p>The final pick for the Titans is 188th overall. Cam Jackson, a defensive tackle from Florida, is the final addition to Tennessee’s defense. He made 37 tackles with four sacks as a fifth-year senior on the Gators. While this is another athlete who can improve their defense, a pick at a different position would have helped them more.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Therefore, an NFL insider confirmed another team would need to make a <a href="https://www.si.com/nfl/nfl-takeaways-cam-ward-emerged-no-1-draft-pick" rel="noopener">historic trade offer</a> for them to pass on Cam Ward, according to Sports Illustrated.</p><p>“Take the Tennessee Titans’ decision to cancel their Wednesday workout with Shedeur Sanders for what it is,” Albert Breer wrote. “Plainly, my sense is it’s a powerful sign of the conviction they’ve built in Cam Ward’s worthiness as the first pick in 17 days. It also backs up what I’ve heard — that it would take a historic offer to move them to trade the pick and pass on the Miami quarterback.”</p><h2><b>Titans closing in on selecting QB Cam Ward at No. 1</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/University-of-Miami-QB-Cam-Ward.jpg"><figcaption>Jerome Miron-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>As most NFL “experts” do, Breer left himself wiggle room. They want people to think they “know” when it often little more than an “experienced guess.”</p><p>“I’m not saying the Cleveland Browns are on the clock at No. 2 quite yet,” Breer wrote. “But we’re getting there. And I think we’ll look back on this as being pretty remarkable in that the Titans came into the process not wanting to predetermine anything with the first pick.”</p><p>Breer said he believes the Titans have never seriously entertained a trade.</p><p>“… a trade was always unlikely, mostly because of the makeup of the draft class,” Breer said. “With the Titans’ roster being what it is, their revamped brass couldn’t afford to come out of April without a blue-chip centerpiece, be it a quarterback or otherwise.</p><p>“Since there appear to be just two non-quarterbacks at that level in the class — with a significant drop-off after (Travis) Hunter and (Abdul) Carter come off the board — the value of picks at Nos. 4, 5 and below is diminished significantly. Which would also kill any appetite the Titans have to drop past that line.”</p><p>Ward checks a lot of NFL boxes. He scored at the top in four categories of an ESPN skill list. Included in the mix, Ward has the <a href="https://www.espn.com/nfl/draft2025/insider/story/_/id/44533594/2025-nfl-draft-best-prospects-skills-traits-standouts-positions-superlatives-best" rel="noopener">best pocket mobility</a>, according to Matt Bowen.</p><p>“Ward has the foot quickness to evade pressure and move in the pocket,” Bowen wrote. “He keeps his eyes up as he slides or steps up to create a better throwing platform. His 46.8 QBR when under pressure ranked 10th in the FBS last season.”</p><p>Also, he owns a quick release, instinctive passing ability, and he’s creative.

Some people believe he is the most pro-ready quarterback in the class, insistent that he deserves to go no later than No. 3. Others question his arm strength and ability to quickly <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/ncaa-football/colorado-football-news-shedeur-sanders-pre-nfl-draft-workout-concerns">get rid of the football</a>, seeing him as more of a mid to late-first-round pick.</p><p>The wide range of opinions regarding the Colorado Buffaloes product will continue to be a main talking point in the next two and a half weeks. It is unknown how the Tennessee Titans grade Sanders, but their latest action indicates they are not considering him with the No. 1 overall selection.</p><p>The team met with Buffaloes duo Sanders and Travis Hunter after Colorado’s Pro Day, mutually agreeing to <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/tennessee-titans/titans-decides-to-cancel-shedeur-sanders-private-workout">cancel previously scheduled private workouts</a>. It is becoming increasingly more likely that the Titans will grab Miami QB Cam Ward with the top pick. Where does that leave the draft’s most famous player?</p><p>The Ringer’s Todd McShay thinks Sanders will be at the heart of <a href="https://x.com/McShay13/status/1908630603119149421" rel="noopener">a crucial decision</a> on April 24, one that he personally considers to be straightforward.</p><p>“And now I’m starting to hear more and more about Hunter to Cleveland at No. 2,” the analyst posted on X. “That would mean Abdul Carter vs. Shedeur for the Giants at No. 3. ***Not a difficult decision IMO.”</p><h2><b>Would teams regret passing on Shedeur Sanders?</b></h2><p>Many view the Penn State edge rusher as the best talent in the 2025 NFL Draft, noting his striking explosiveness and athleticism, but the New York Giants lack a franchise quarterback. If general manager Joe Schoen thinks Sanders has star potential, it might be irresponsible to pass over him.</p><p>However, New York could prioritize the present over the future after signing both Russell Wilson and Jameis Winston in free agency. If the Giants take the Carter route, Shedeur Sanders’ landing spot becomes much harder to predict. The Pittsburgh Steelers, who also do not have a long-term option under center, could scoop him up at No. 21 if he drops. Or, the Cleveland Browns could trade up to snatch the Big 12 Offensive Player of the Year.</p><p>Sanders’ draft-day destination is quite the mystery, but you should probably cross off the Titans.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

The Titans need to collect as much information as possible on the top prospects in this year’s class to ensure they aren’t picking first overall next year.</p><p>Well, while that may be the case, according to Titans staff writer Jim Wyatt, Tennessee has seen enough of one of the top prospects in this year’s class, Shedeur Sanders, as, after watching his Pro Day in Boulder, they’ve decided to cancel their private worker with the <a href="https://x.com/jwyattsports/status/1908582623338779116" rel="noopener">second-generation NFL star</a>.</p><p>“After yesterday’s Colorado Pro Day, Titans brass met with Shedeur Sanders’ camp, and the parties have agreed to cancel the upcoming private workout,” Wyatt wrote. “The Titans have seen four years of game film, scouted multiple games, and now attended a Pro Day they described as very impressive.”</p><p>Now, on paper, Wyatt’s assertion isn’t wrong per se; the Titans have seen Sanders play four years of college ball, have talked to people in his life, and have gone to his Pro Day, where they got to see him work out first-hand alongside his peers.</p><p>With that being said, why not bring Sanders in for a visit and get even more data points on him? Is the franchise sold on their current evaluation of Sanders, or are they more-or-less sure they they are drafting Cam Ward, with that visit better utilized on a player who could be there at the top of the second round, instead of a first round option who they can choose to draft or not to draft?</p><p>While Sanders could end up going first overall, this feels like a certified endorsement of him not being the first overall pick, which opens things up for the Cleveland Browns to select him at two or for another team like the New York Giants, Las Vegas Raiders, or New York Jets to pick him at spots on the board.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Duddy and Levis went to Penn State together.</p><p>As for Fuller, her claim to fame was in Peter Weber’s season of The Bachelor, where she was a contestant. The show aired in 2020. Fuller did not find love during her season as Weber ended up getting engaged to Hannah Ann Sluss. Sluss and Weber broke up shortly after and got into a relationship with Madison Prewitt which they also ended up breaking up. However, Sluss ended up with a happy ending and is now married to Detroit Lions running back Jake Funk.</p><p>After leaving The Bachelor, Fuller dated Bachelor Chris Soules off-screen during the COVID-19 pandemic and quarantined together. However, they <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=erk08XCOxRg" rel="noopener">called it quits </a>in September 2020.</p><p>“I am just living my best life,” Fuller said on the Viall Files podcast in 2020. “We went a separate direction, but I respect him so much, I think he is an amazing man. I just think right now, I’m in such a different place than he is and I’m not moving to Iowa any time soon.</p><p>“So, I just want to focus on me. It’s been so much about other people this year that I just really want to hone in on what I want to accomplish, and what I want to get out of this year,” she continued.</p><p>After that romance, Fuller got into a relationship with Greg Grippo from 2022 to 2024. Grippo and Fuller confirmed the split in April 2024.</p><p>“Being in a public relationship, if things aren’t working out, it sucks even more,” Greg told fellow Bachelor Nation alum’s Jason Tartick’s Trading Secrets podcast last year. “It’s hard.”</p><p>“It’s sad to be honest with you,” he added. “It’s really sad. I just want to respect her during this time and not go into detail on anything. Yeah we definitely ended things.

And with the NFL Draft quickly approaching, one 49ers reporter <a href="https://www.si.com/nfl/49ers/news/will-49ers-trade-brock-purdy-titans-draft-night" rel="noopener">floated the possibility</a> of the team trading Purdy on draft night.</p><p>“Purdy’s agent seems to think his client is worth $60 million per season simply because that’s what <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/san-francisco-49ers/49ers-rumors-brock-purdy-hit-dak-prescott-reality-contract-talks">the Cowboys pay Dak Prescott</a>,” 49ers on SI’s Grant Cohn said. “The 49ers probably are willing to pay him $50 million per season, but $60 million per could be too much.</p><p>“If Purdy and his agent refuse to budge, the 49ers could give them permission to seek a trade. And the Tennessee Titans just might be interested.”</p><p>Cohn suggested the Titans draft Penn State edge rusher Abdul Carter with the No. 1 overall pick and trade for Purdy, who would then get a big extension in Tennessee. The <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/tennessee-titans/titans-rumors-godfather-trade-offer-needed-not-take-cam-ward">Titans have been linked to Miami quarterback Cam Ward</a> for much of the draft process because of a glaring team need.</p><p>In Cohn’s hypothetical, the Titans, in exchange for Purdy, would trade a 2025 first-round pick (which they would need to acquire if they draft Carter first overall) and a 2026 second-round pick that could become a first-rounder depending on the Titans and Purdy’s success. San Francisco would then either draft a quarterback like Colorado’s Shedeur Sanders or sign or trade for a <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/san-francisco-49ers/49ers-rumors-insider-floats-brock-purdy-trade-aaron-rodgers-signing">veteran like Aaron Rodgers</a>, Kirk Cousins, or Mac Jones.</p><p>It would seem unlikely that any of that would happen, though. While the 49ers are probably hesitant to give Purdy one of the biggest contracts in NFL history, they are not in a great position to let a 25-year-old quarterback who led them to a Super Bowl just over a year ago walk.</p><p>Purdy’s true value has been the subject of much debate over the past few years. After being selected with the last pick in the 2022 draft, Purdy shockingly had success when he was forced to become the 49ers’ starter as a rookie. He and San Francisco made it to the NFC Championship, but early into the game, he tore his UCL, knocking him out of the game and dooming the 49ers.</p><p>The following year, Purdy was named the starting quarterback before the season, and he excelled in the role. He led the NFL in passer rating and helped the Niners win 12 games, the NFC West, and reach the Super Bowl for the first time since 2020.</p><p>If Purdy and the 49ers can’t come to a deal before this summer, it would not be a surprise if he holds in or out, much like teammates Trent Williams and Brandon Aiyuk did last season.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

They lost Mason Rudolph in free agency and only replaced him with Brandon Allen and Tim Boyle, both of whom were really only signed for depth purposes, so it’s clear that the team is plotting a move for a quarterback in the draft.

One Titans official noted recently that it is still within the realm of possibility to <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/nfl-stories/grading-espns-trade-proposal-kirk-cousins-titans-no-1-pick-browns">trade away their first-round pick</a>.</p><p>Titans President of Football Operations Chad Brinker <a href="https://youtu.be/t9PqV_Xnp_A?t=314" rel="noopener">spoke about the team’s timetable</a> for potentially trading the first overall pick in this year’s draft.</p><p>“We’re getting close to that point. We got one more week left as far as pro days, well maybe two weeks of pro days and private workouts,” Brinker said on Tuesday. “Once we get through with that we’ll be in the room here mid April you’re kind of getting to that spot. Particularly with the number one pick, there’s going to be people who make calls, we’re going to have to listen. There may be something that comes up that you’re like wow that’s strong. But we might be at a point mid April or right before the draft where it’s like we’re probably not going to trade this. It’s going to take a lot to come up to get here.”</p><p>Brinker essentially drew a line in the sand of mid April. He did not say the Titans would be unwilling to make a trade after that point, but they would need to be blown out of the water by any offer.</p><p>The 2025 NFL Draft kicks off on April 24th, which gives Tennessee just over three weeks to work out any potential trade.</p><h2><b>Who should the Titans choose if they keep the first overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft?</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/Cam-Ward-with-Miami.jpg"><figcaption>Nathan Ray Seebeck-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>If the Titans keep their first-round pick, they could go in a few different directions.</p><p>The consensus pick would be Miami QB <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/tennessee-titans/titans-news-cam-ward-work-out-amid-no-1-pick-buzz">Cam Ward, who many analysts have linked with Tennessee</a>. The Titans have Will Levis, Brandon Allen, and Tim Boyle in their quarterback room right now, which makes the position a huge need.</p><p>Ward had a great 2024 season at Miami where he showcased everything that NFL scouts want to see. He is a mobile quarterback who can also win from the pocket. The Titans could get a lot better right away by drafting Ward.</p><p>If Tennessee does not go quarterback, they would likely choose Penn State linebacker Abdul Carter.</p><p><a href="https://clutchpoints.com/ncaa-football/penn-state-football-news-abdul-carter-explains-why-best-player-2025-nfl-draft">Carter is regarded as one of the best players in the 2025 NFL Draft</a>. He had an incredible 2024 where he logged 68 total tackles, 12 sacks, and two forced fumbles. Carter projects as an elite edge rusher at the professional level and could completely transform Tennessee’s defense if he is their first-round pick.</p><p>It will be fascinating to see how Tennessee approaches the 2025 NFL Draft later this month.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Here are the trade grades for each team.</p><h2><b>Hypothetical trade proposal</b></h2><p><b>Titans get:</b> 1-2, 3-67, 2026 second-round pick (from Browns), QB Kirk Cousins (from Falcons, with cash considerations)</p><p><b>Falcons get:</b> 2026 seventh-round pick (from Titans)</p><p><b>Browns get:</b> 1-1, 2026 sixth-round pick (from Titans)</p><h2><b>Trade grade for Titans after adding Kirk Cousins</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/KIRK-COUSINS-1-1.jpg"><figcaption>Brett Davis-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>In this hypothetical trade, the Titans move back only one pick, yet they add the very next draft pick, a starting quarterback in the form of Cousins, and additional draft capital in the process. On the surface, that is pretty good trade value. However, all reports have signaled that <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/tennessee-titans/titans-rumors-no-1-pick-dilemma-cam-ward-private-workout">Tennessee is becoming infatuated with Ward</a>, and this trade means that they would almost certainly lose out on the chance to draft him. The <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/cleveland-browns/browns-rumors-cleveland-zeroes-in-on-no-2-pick-if-cam-ward-is-unavailable">Browns would likely select Ward</a> with their new pick at the top of the draft.</p><p>Cousins would be the new signal-caller in Tennessee. The quarterback has tons of experience and production at a high level, but he simply wasn’t the same player post-achilles tear last season with the Falcons. The 36-year-old struggled with mobility inside of the pocket in the first year of a four-year, $180 million deal. He also led the league with 16 interceptions.</p><p>Prior to that, Cousins was playing like one of the best quarterbacks in the NFL in 2023 before suffering his injury, and he was a 4,000-yard passer in seven of the eight seasons before that. Considering his age and injury history, it doesn’t seem like Cousins will ever return to past form, though, and that ties the Titans to a huge contract for three more years with this hypothetical trade.</p><p>In theory, the Titans could draft Shedeur Sanders to be the quarterback of the future with the number two pick, but we already saw how the strategy of having a rookie quarterback learning behind Cousins as a bridge option worked out. The Falcons took Michael Penix Jr. eighth overall last season, and <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/atlanta-falcons/falcons-news-kirk-cousins-breaks-silence-after-benching">they benched Cousins</a> in favor of him late in the season. Now Atlanta is stuck in a bind. That even goes without mentioning that Cousins doesn’t want a young quarterback taking his place again, so he’d likely use his <a href="https://sports.yahoo.com/article/browns-kirk-cousins-wont-waive-153717568.html" rel="noopener">no-trade clause</a> if the Titans planned on drafting a quarterback as his heir apparent.</p><p>Overall, this is solid trade value to move back only one draft slot, especially considering the team would add additional second and third-round picks. Cousins’ regressing play and bad contract, combined with missing out on the chance to draft Ward, is what holds back the trade grade here, though. Ward has sky-high potential, and the Titans can’t afford to pass on their potential quarterback of the future.</p><p><b>Grade: C+</b></p><h2><b>Trade grade for Falcons after moving off of Kirk Cousins</b></h2><p>The Falcons only add one draft pick in this hypothetical deal, and it is only a seventh-rounder in 2026. Even so, the team wouldn’t complain at all. Getting off of Cousins’ contract alone is a positive. Plus, this would eliminate the locker room drama of having two signal-callers who think that they should start for their team.</p><p>Penix deserves to have his team’s full support going forward, and trading away Cousins would prove that he does. Atlanta would be unlikely to find anyone of value with the seventh-round pick they add here, but it is better than nothing. Sometimes, accepting a mistake and correcting it is the correct course of action. The Falcons would be smart to cut their losses from the Cousins deal sooner rather than later.</p><p><b>Grade: B+</b></p><h2><b>Trade grade for Browns after adding the number one pick</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/CAM-WARD-1-1.jpg"><figcaption>Jasen Vinlove-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>It isn’t quite clear what the Browns will do in the 2025 NFL Draft. They’ve been linked to Sanders as well as defensive players Abdul Carter and Travis Hunter, but recent reports suggest that they might prefer Ward. If that is the case, then trading up and selecting “their guy” is the smart move. Adding a second and third-round pick to a trade involving the number two overall selection would be well worth it if Ward becomes a franchise signal-caller, especially considering the Browns have struggled with quarterback play for most of the 21st century.</p><p>Settling for who most consider to be the second-best quarterback with the second overall pick is risky, especially considering all of Cleveland’s recent quarterback blunders. Going all in on the top quarterback makes too much sense.</p><p>Ward is 6-foot-3, 233 pounds. He threw for 4,313 yards and 39 touchdowns in a season where he finished third in Heisman voting last season. The Miami product with five years of collegiate experience has Ben Roethlisberger-like potential, and Cleveland would be thrilled if he became anything close to the player that their long-time Pittsburgh Steelers rival was during his playing days.</p><p><b>Grade: A-</b></p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

There are a number of players that we like in this draft relatively high, but I think as we come to really, the end of March, first week of April, we’re coming down the home stretch, so to speak, about probably the player assessment phase of the draft process. And then as we really get into the month of April, that’s when we really dive into strategy.”</p><p>The Browns, who missed the playoffs this past season a year after midseason pickup Joe Flacco led them to the postseason in 2023, are in need of a quarterback. Deshaun Watson re-injured his torn Achilles tendon in January, which will likely mean he will be out for the entirety of the 2025 season. Backup quarterbacks Jameis Winston and Dorian Thompson-Robinson have since left the organization; Winston signed a free-agent deal with the New York Giants, and Thompson-Robinson was traded by Cleveland to the Philadelphia Eagles in exchange for Kenny Pickett.</p><p>If the Browns opt to select a quarterback with their pick, they likely will not have the ability to choose Miami’s Cam Ward since it is expected the Titans will take him first overall. Still, if the Browns are determined to use the No. 2 pick on a QB, they <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/cleveland-browns/nfl-draft-rumors-shedeur-sanders-browns-sprinkling-hints-ahead-of-draft-says-bill-simmons">could draft Colorado’s Shedeur Sanders</a>, the son of NFL great and current Buffaloes head coach Deion Sanders.</p><p>Cleveland could decide to go for the best player available, though, which at two, would probably be either Colorado two-way <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/cleveland-browns/browns-rumors-cleveland-urged-draft-travis-hunter-over-shedeur-sanders-former-gm">Heisman winner Travis Hunter</a> or <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/ncaa-football/penn-state-news-team-abdul-carter-met-pro-day">Penn State edge rusher Abdul Carter</a>, who was a unanimous All-American and the Big Ten Defensive Player of the Year.</p><p>Carter, though, has been diagnosed with a foot stress reaction, which at one point seemed as if it could lead to surgery. The Penn State product’s doctors apparently advised him against that course of action, and Berry, when asked about the injury’s effect on Carter, said it was “not going to be prohibitive to a long, successful career.”</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

With reports <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/titans-rumors-no-1-pick-dilemma-cam-ward-private-workout">heavily linking them to Miami football quarterback Cam Ward</a>, that has left the future of Will Levis up in the air. Unsurprisingly, his name has popped up in trade rumors, but according to Titans President of Football Operations Chad Brinker, the team currently isn’t looking to trade Levis.</p><p>Tennessee selected Levis with the 33rd overall pick of the 2023 NFL draft, and after some encouraging stretches as a rookie, he earned the starting gig in 2024. Levis struggled mightily, though, throwing just 13 touchdowns to 12 interceptions in 12 games of action for the Titans. With the team becoming more and more likely to draft Ward, that leaves Levis in limbo, but it <a href="https://www.tennesseetitans.com/news/from-the-nfl-owners-meetings-titans-have-not-discussed-trading-qb-will-levis-with-anyone" rel="noopener">doesn’t sound like a trade is on the table</a> just yet.</p><p>“That’s a false report,” Brinker said. “We have not contacted anybody, and nobody has contacted us, about Will Levis. I don’t think anything has changed from the time somebody asked me about this a month ago … The plan with Will Levis is he has a chance to compete for a starting job next year. And that’s like every player that’s on our roster. It’s no different for Will. I see him in our facility, he’s working hard. Everybody knows he’s a great kid, he’s a hard worker and he’s going to give it everything he has. And we’re going to continue to work with Will Levis.”</p><h2><b>Titans not giving up on Will Levis … yet</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/Titans-quarterback-Will-Levis.jpg"><figcaption>Mandatory Credit: Andrew Nelles-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>While Levis may not be a part of the Titans’ future plans, he’s only a few years removed from being a top draft pick, which could hold value with several teams across the league. But Ward isn’t officially on the team yet, so there’s no sense for Tennessee to tip their hand and trade away Levis, which would all but guarantee they’d be selecting the former Hurricanes quarterback.</p><p>Could a trade involving Levis happen down the line? Certainly, especially if the Titans do end up drafting Ward (or any other quarterback for that matter), but for the time being, he will be staying put. Tennessee is still working through their draft plans, and until all their picks are made, you can bet Levis will be staying in town. What happens after that is as good as anyone’s guess.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Armed with the first overall pick in the upcoming draft there was a growing consensus around the league that the team would take Cam Ward. But <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/tennessee-titans/titans-news-gms-cryptic-stance-no-1-pick-cam-ward-buzz">cryptic comments from Titans’ GM Mike Borgonzi</a> called that strategy into question.</p><p>Now head coach Brian Callahan is adding to the uncertainty. When asked if Tennessee planned to solve its quarterback problem through the draft, Callahan issued an <a href="https://www.tennesseetitans.com/news/titans-hc-brian-callahan-praises-veteran-qb-brandon-allen-while-discussing-the-team-s-moves-in-free-agency" rel="noopener">unexpected response</a>.</p><p>“I don’t think you can make that assumption… And I don’t think people have enough respect for what Brandon Allen is. I think Brandon is a good quarterback. I think you watch him play and what he has done in his career, he’s a guy that can play. He is a good quarterback,” Callahan said, per Jim Wyatt of the Titans’ official site.</p><p>“Ultimately, Brandon has played 10 years for a reason,” he added.</p><h2><b>Do the Titans view Brandon Allen as a viable starting quarterback?</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/Brandon-Allen.jpg"><figcaption>Stephen R. Sylvanie-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>Tennessee passed on the veteran signal callers available in free agency this offseason, choosing instead to sign career backups Brandon Allen and Tim Boyle. The only other quarterback on the Titans’ roster is Will Levis.</p><p>Allen spent three seasons with the Cincinnati Bengals backing up Joe Burrow while Callahan was the team’s offensive coordinator. Although Allen has only made 10 career starts since entering the league as a sixth-round draft pick in 2016, six of them came with the Bengals, including a five-game stint in 2020 after Burrow suffered a season-ending injury.</p><p>Allen threw for 925 yards with five touchdowns and four interceptions, earning a 82.0 passer rating in 2020, his most prolific season. For his career he has a 56.7 completion percentage with 1,810 passing yards, 11 touchdowns and eight interceptions in 18 appearances.</p><p>The Titans have made it clear they aren’t willing to go into the 2025 season with Levis as the unquestioned QB1. In fact, the team <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/tennessee-titans/titans-rumors-tennessee-trade-will-levis-but-catch">would like to trade Levis</a> but a market for his services hasn’t materialized.</p><p>Tennessee sent a <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/tennessee-titans/titans-news-tennessee-massive-group-cam-ward-miami-pro-day">large group to Ward’s Pro Day</a> in Miami, appearing to signal their interest in the young passer. But the public comments made by the team’s head coach and GM since then have cast doubt on the Titans’ intention to draft Ward.</p><p>A move back in the draft could still be an option. Borgonzi said everything remains on the table for the team. But would the Titans really go into the 2025 season with Levis, Allen and Boyle as their top three quarterbacks? That seems… inadequate, regardless of Callahan’s fondness for Allen.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

However, it isn’t that simple. During Friday’s episode of <i>The Insiders</i>, Ian Rapoport explained how he doesn’t believe the Titans are sold on Ward after his private workout, <a href="https://x.com/RapSheet/status/1905764574558826600/video/1" rel="noopener">opening the door for a possible trade-down</a> in the 2025 NFL Draft.</p><p>“What the Tennessee Titans are doing is really going through a thorough evaluation process,” Rapoport said via his X account. “Not just trying to figure out is Cam Ward the No. 1 overall pick for them, but are they even going to make the No. 1 overall pick? They have Cam Ward today. Obviously, they were very famously at his Pro Day a couple of days ago. In fact, remember, when Cam Ward threw a dime down the field, he came over to Titans brass and basically said, ‘I’m the guy for you.’ In other words, pick me at No. 1. Now, they are just not there yet.</p><p>“They also, by the way, are going to do a private workout with Shedeur Sanders after his Pro Day. So, that is going to be in a couple of weeks. Really, what they want to find out: Are either of these guys worthy of No. 1? If the answer is yes, then it is simple. Likely take Cam Ward.”</p><p>However, Rapoport went on, explaining that he isn’t completely sold on the Titans drafting Ward with the first pick after they hosted him for a private workout.</p><p>“If they do not believe that any player is worthy of No. 1, then, likely, they would look to trade,” Rapoport added. “And they are going to have several teams interested. The Giants would potentially be one. The Saints would potentially be one. The Titans have time. They’re trying to do a thorough process and figure it out. I would say it’s likely that they make the No. 1 pick, right now, but that is not for certain.”</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">From The Insiders on <a href="https://twitter.com/nflnetwork?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@NFLNetwork</a>: The <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/Titans?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#Titans</a> held a private workout for Cam Ward today.

However, at this point in the NFL offseason, it’s tough to know what to believe. All NFL general managers are spouting nonsense to insiders, hoping it leaks to the public in order to throw other teams off.</p><p>So, until the Titans announce they’re drafting Ward, there should be a level of hesitance in believing what Ian Rapoport and Adam Schefter report during this part of the pre-draft cycle.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

The <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/tennessee-titans/titans-news-tennessee-massive-group-cam-ward-miami-pro-day">Titans were heavily represented at Ward’s Pro Day</a>, painting a picture that they’re interested in the Miami quarterback as their No. 1 pick. However, with a <a href="https://x.com/RapSheet/status/1905400621592682658" rel="noopener">private workout planned</a> with the Titans, per Ian Rapoport on Thursday’s episode of <i>The Insiders</i>, the buzz about him being the No. 1 pick in the 2025 NFL Draft is steadily increasing.</p><p>“My understanding is the Tennessee Titans are in the latter stages of their evaluation for what they do with the No. 1 overall pick,” Rapoport said via X. “And if they pick, it certainly seems likely — I would say — that Cam Ward would be the guy. But, that’s not really the question. The question more is do they make the selection, or are they more willing to trade back to [pick No. 3] or somewhere later in the top 10? So, what they’re doing is they are having a private workout with Cam Ward. That is going to be tomorrow.</p><p>“The workout with Shedeur Sanders is after his Pro Day. So, Cam Ward did two workouts this week; Shedeur Sanders, after his Pro Day. What the Titans are trying to do is just figure out: Is Cam Ward worth the No. 1 overall pick? It sounds like, at his Pro Day, it was pretty electric. I know everybody was pretty wowed. And I think a lot of those in attendance really felt like he did — as he said — which is, solidify his spot. But, obviously, the Titans still going through that evaluation.”</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">From The Insiders on <a href="https://twitter.com/nflnetwork?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@NFLNetwork</a>: Cam Ward, the potential No. 1 pick, will work out for the <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/Titans?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#Titans</a> tomorrow. <a href="https://t.co/BnzSTUuNds">pic.twitter.com/BnzSTUuNds</a></p><p>— Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) <a href="https://twitter.com/RapSheet/status/1905400621592682658?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">March 27, 2025</a></p></blockquote><p><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p></figure><p>Now, maybe this is conspiratorial, but Rapoport’s wording in his report seemed oddly intentional.

And maybe that was him dropping little hints of what’s to come from the Titans’ war room on the first night of the draft.</p><p>Again, this is a conspiratorial ideology, but when listening to Rapoport’s report, the way he explained Tennessee’s options — aside from drafting Ward — jumped out as significant.</p><p>However, with a private workout in place for Cam Ward with the Titans, he could prove that he’s the No. 1 pick for Tennessee. In a class as uncertain as this one, it seems like anything could happen in the 2025 NFL Draft.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>
