When it comes to the NFL draft, quarterbacks are always a hot commodity. Every team wants the next Tom Brady, Peyton Manning, Brett Favre, or Aaron Rodgers, and they’re hoping to find him before anyone else.
The 2025 NFL draft is no different, and the Tennessee Titans have the benefit of the first overall pick.
The consensus is that Miami’s Cam Ward and Colorado’s Shedeur Sanders are the top two quarterbacks in this year’s draft, with Jaxson Dart coming in third.
Recently, Ward and Sanders worked out together and exchanged friendly jabs at one another.

“They gave you a completion percentage award and all you did was throw check-downs and bubble screens,” Ward said. “If I did that, my completion percentage would be 90. I throw the ball downfield, you don’t.”
To which Sanders replied, “You had a run game.”
Before Ward’s statement, Sanders razzed him about his consistency.
The two prospects are friends, and their exchanges are good-natured. But don’t mistake that for complacency, either. Both players have a healthy level of competition that keeps them working hard. Trash-talking your friend not only keeps the competition going, but it makes the weight of what they are doing easier to bear.
The Titans have been incredibly quiet on their plans for the first overall pick. They may draft one of these quarterbacks, or they may not, or they could trade the pick and another team will draft one of these quarterbacks. The truth is, we won’t really know until they want us to know.
