Titans, Saints Consider Major Quarterback Changes

The Tennessee Titans are expected to select Miami quarterback Cam Ward with the No. 1 pick in the upcoming NFL Draft, after Ward hinted at a move to Tennessee and the team displayed strong interest. Following a disappointing 3-14 season, the Titans are also considering drafting wide receiver Luther Burden III in the second round to support Ward. The New Orleans Saints, who hold the No. 9 pick, are evaluating several quarterback options—including Shedeur Sanders, Tyler Shough, and a possible trade for Will Levis from the Titans—after Derek Carr's shoulder surgery. Analysts advise the Saints not to use their top pick on a running back or a raw edge rusher due to other roster needs. Both franchises are under new management and are expected to make significant roster changes to address weaknesses from last season. The quarterback market and draft strategies for both teams remain fluid ahead of the 2025 NFL season.
