It had been leaked that top Tennessee Titans officials attended Cam Ward‘s Pro Day in Miami. They did it along with other evaluators, but knowing that they are one of the teams that have high chances of getting him in the NFL Draft next April.
Against this backdrop, and with the conditions he has shown in his collegiate career, he is the favorite to become the first selection, although there is a serious debate about whether he is the best choice before the other available players such as Colorado Quarterback Shedeur Sanders, Heisman Trophy winner Travis Hunter or Penn State pass rusher Abdul Carter.

Cam Ward, confident and with a message for the Titans
The 23-year-old quarterback sat down to talk with NFL Network’s Brian Baldinger and Cameron Wolfe about his Pro Day goals, where he sent a message while executing some of his drives.
“I said, ‘I’m solidifying it today,’” Ward said on NFL Network when asked about what he told members of the Titans staff he had nearby as he was executing.
Titans with No. 1 pick
The team is in a prime position where they can select a Quarterback, but not before signing Brandon Allen to be Will Levis’ backup. Allen has been a third-string player in the past, so it would make sense for the Titans to bring him in that capacity.
This means the Titans are preparing to add another element at this position this offseason, either in the latter part of free agency or in the draft.
The team have hosted Ward for a pre-draft visit and met with him for dinner while he was in Miami, so it’s clear he’s in the running for the first pick.
The Titans have also sent the entire house from Nashville. Present at their Pro Day were head coach Brian Callahan, general manager Mike Borgonzi, and President Burke Nihill, even the website production and Titans TV were on hand to see just how special Cam Ward was.
