Titans Draft Cam Ward, Jaguars Trade Up for Travis Hunter

Cam Ward was selected as the first overall pick in the NFL draft by the Tennessee Titans, marking a remarkable rise from being an overlooked high school player to the top spot. The Jacksonville Jaguars executed a major trade with the Cleveland Browns to move up to the second pick, where they chose Travis Hunter, a standout wide receiver and cornerback from Colorado and the 2024 Heisman Trophy winner. This move required the Jaguars to give up their No. 5 pick, additional draft picks, and a future first-rounder, signaling a strong commitment to boosting their offense and defense. Hunter is expected to contribute on both sides of the ball, potentially becoming the NFL's first full-time two-way player in decades. The draft, held next to Lambeau Field, began with fanfare and continued the tradition of Commissioner Roger Goodell being booed as he opened the event. These bold moves by the Titans and Jaguars highlight their ambitions to reshape their teams for the coming season.
