The Tennessee Titans currently hold the first-overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft. After a miserable season with Will Levis and Mason Rudolph as the quarterback, general manager Ran Carthon was fired. Former Kansas City Chiefs assistant GM Mike Borgonzi is now running the show. He has said he won’t pass on a generational talent with the top pick but the simulator may disagree. We put the Titans through the Pro Football Network NFL mock draft simulator to see what they grab.
The Titans traded their third-round pick to the Chiefs last offseason in the L’Jarius Snead deal. So coming into this simulation, they have the first-overall pick and the 35th overall selection in the second round. PFN lists their needs as quarterback, offensive tackle, edge rusher, wide receiver, and cornerback. You could make an argument that those are the five most important positions on a football team. So quality and quantity will be important for the Titans in the draft.
Who will the Titans select in the 2025 NFL Draft? Let’s see what the mock draft simulator says.
Picture this, Roger Goodell is walking up to the podium ahead of the first-overall pick. Instead of announcing a pick for the Titans, he announces a trade. The Cleveland Browns move up one spot, giving up the second, 33rd, 67th, 94th, and a 2026 second-round picks to do so. They select Cameron Ward from the University of Miami. So when Goodell comes up to the podium for number two, surely Borgonzi made a pick, right? Wrong! Another trade! The Giants give up the 3rd and 34th overall pick and a first and second in 2026 to move up to take Sheduer Sanders.
When it is finally time for Borgonzi and the Titans to pick, there are no first-round caliber quarterbacks to select. So they take Travis Hunter out of Colorado, the Heisman Trophy winner who could play offense or defense. He was a dominant cornerback and solid wide receiver and may have to pick one in the pros. After all of those trades, the Titans got the best player available here with Hunter.
After the two ridiculous trades to kick things off, the Titans have the first three picks of the second round. With so many needs, the mock draft simulator picked the best players available. They start at 33 with Cameron Williams, an offensive tackle from Texas. He is 6’5″ and started for three years at Texas as a tackle. They need a better offensive line and sticking a blue-chip tackle on the end is a great way to start.
The next pick is used on the next best player available, safety Xavier Watts out of Notre Dame. He was key to the Irish’s run to the National Championship Game last year and won the Bronko Nagurski Trophy as the nation’s top defensive player. While safety is not listed as a need, every position...
