Cam Ward, a top quarterback prospect for the 2025 NFL Draft, made a significant impact at the Miami Pro Day, impressing the Tennessee Titans’ scouts and coaching staff. Ward, who is in contention for the No. 1 overall pick, stated that he believes he “solidified” his standing as a top selection.
His performance has led the Titans to schedule a private workout with him, further indicating their strong interest in making him their franchise quarterback. ESPN reports that Ward has essentially become the internal favorite for Tennessee’s first pick.
Titans Weigh Ward’s Potential Amid Rising Draft Stock and Trade Speculation
The Titans have been increasingly impressed with Ward throughout the pre-draft process, as reported by Adam Schefter. Although the team is still open to listening to trade offers for the No. 1 pick, it would now take an exceptionally strong package to convince them to move down in the draft.
Some analysts speculate that Tennessee may be using Ward’s rising stock to generate more trade interest in the top selection. However, the genuine admiration from head coach Brian Callahan and the team’s scouting staff suggests they are seriously considering selecting Ward as their future signal-caller.

At the Miami Pro Day, Ward confidently showcased his arm strength and ability to make all necessary NFL throws. When speaking with former Titans general manager Ran Carthon, Ward expressed his belief that he has what it takes to be the top pick in the draft.
“The arm strength and the confidence that I’m bringing,” Ward said, “I just think I’ll be able to put the ball where I want.” He also shared that playing professional sports has always been his dream, whether in football, baseball, or basketball, and he sees this as his destiny.
Giants Weigh Trade Options as Titans Consider Future with No. 1 Pick
While the Titans appear to be leaning toward drafting Ward, they are not the only team with interest. ESPN previously reported that the New York Giants have explored trading up to acquire the No. 1 pick, with Ward being their primary target.
Despite recently signing Jameis Winston and showing interest in veteran quarterback Aaron Rodgers, the Giants are determined to find a long-term solution at the position. Their front office has made it clear they are exploring all options to secure the best possible quarterback for the future.
With the 2025 NFL Draft approaching, the Titans face a crucial decision regarding their No. 1 pick. While they remain open to trade discussions, their growing admiration for Ward suggests they may ultimately keep the selection and build their franchise around him.
Ward’s strong Pro Day performance and unwavering confidence have only strengthened his case. Whether Tennessee drafts him or trades the pick, Ward has solidified himself as a top-tier prospect, and his future in the NFL appears promising.
