Titans Eye Cam Ward as Top Draft Pick; Seahawks Make Bold Moves with Darnold, Geno Trade
  • The Tennessee Titans hold the No. 1 overall pick in the upcoming NFL Draft and are expected to select either Cam Ward or Shedeur Sanders to spearhead their rebuilding efforts after Will Levis's unsuccessful tenure.

  • Cam Ward has emerged as the consensus top choice for the Titans following a strong pro day performance, while Shedeur Sanders's draft position remains uncertain, with predictions placing him potentially within the top 15 picks.

  • The 2025 quarterback draft class is notably shallow, with only Ward and Sanders likely to be first-round selections, a stark contrast to the depth seen in the previous year's class.

  • As the 2025 NFL offseason progresses, activity has slowed with the conclusion of free agency and the draft approaching on April 24.

  • In the NFC West, the Seattle Seahawks are facing pressure to excel in the draft to address critical roster gaps and effectively support their newly signed quarterback, Sam Darnold.

  • The Seahawks have made some surprising moves, trading away quarterback Geno Smith and receiver D.K. Metcalf, while committing to Darnold with a three-year, $100.5 million contract, signaling their intent to remain competitive despite a weak supporting cast.

  • Stefon Diggs, a top remaining free agent recovering from an ACL injury, is attracting interest from teams like the New England Patriots and Los Angeles Chargers as they look to enhance their receiving corps.

  • Josh Allen's recent six-year, $330 million contract extension has set a new benchmark in the quarterback market, featuring a record $250 million in guaranteed money.

  • While Allen's deal does not reset the market, it could influence negotiations for other quarterbacks, particularly Brock Purdy, who is aiming for a contract close to $60 million per year.
