Titans Expected to Trade No. 1 Pick in 2025 NFL Draft

The Tennessee Titans face a crucial decision regarding the first overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, with many insiders suggesting a trade down to acquire additional assets rather than selecting a quarterback. A recent poll among NFL executives revealed that five out of eight panelists believe trading the pick is the best move, citing the Titans' need to fill multiple roster gaps beyond just the quarterback position. While there is consideration for top quarterback prospects like Shedeur Sanders and Cam Ward, concerns about the team's current offensive line and overall roster depth have led to skepticism about immediately drafting a signal-caller. New Titans general manager Mike Borgonzi has indicated openness to trading the top pick to build a more robust team. Additionally, analysts speculate that teams such as the New York Giants may be interested in moving up to secure a quarterback, further complicating the Titans' strategy. Ultimately, the Titans are weighing whether to capitalize on the rare opportunity of the first pick or to build a stronger foundation for the future by trading down.
