The Titans hold the No. 1 overall pick in the 2025 draft. After president of football operations Chad Brinker said earlier this week that the team would not pass on generational talentthe focus was on Colorado cornerback/receiver Travis Hunter and Penn State edge rusher Abdul Carter.
But the Titans need a quarterback, and they need draft picks — lots of draft picks.
So trading the top pick or taking the top quarterback with the first pick still remains very much on the table.
Titans coach Brian Callahan spent time with Colorado quarterback Shedeur Sanders on Friday at the East-West Shrine Bowl. New general manager Mike Borgonzi, Brinker, assistant coaches and scouts from the team were also on hand, reports Jim Wyatt of the team’s website.
Callahan made a positive first impression of Sanders, the son of Colorado coach and Hall of Famer Deion Sanders.
“You can tell he was raised properlyCallahan Wyatt said. “He is mature. He has a really cool attitude about himself and seems like a really good kid. I enjoyed talking to him. And, you could say he’s the guy who’s been in the spotlight. He knows how to handle himself. He got the money, so he has a financial perspective.”
Sanders did not throw Friday, but is scheduled to participate in practice in the coming days.
Callahan called the pre-draft process “invaluable,” especially when it comes to quarterbacks.
“It’s big,” Callahan said. “This is another opportunity for me to be in contact with them. Even though Shedeur didn’t pitch today, I had a chance to talk to him for 15 minutes, and that’s one touch point to what will likely be multiple – Combine touch point, pro-day touch point, 30-visit touch point, to where you really you get to discover everything about the player. A film is a film, but the rest is important – who they are, how they function, what their personality is like, what they are like in the building when you bring them in for 30 visits. And then you get to the point where you have a full picture of the player and the person, and that allows you to make the best decision. Each of these is important and all have different values during the process.
“Especially for this first exposure, it was invaluable to me to name Shedeur and talk to him. And there are other players that you are exposed to for the first time in the scouting process.”
