The Tennessee Titans are emerging as a destination of interest for two standout players from Colorado. Despite Deion Sanders suggesting Shedeur Sanders might need to follow an Eli Manning-like strategy and declare his reluctance to play for certain teams, indications already point towards him heading to Music City.
In two preliminary 2025 NFL mock drafts, the Titans are projected to secure either Sanders or his fellow standout, Travis Hunter, both anticipated to be among the top five picks of the 2025 NFL Draft.
Green Bay Packers GM Brian Gutekunst’s perspective on MarShawn Lynch is a development worth monitoring.
Walter Football speculates that despite giving Will Levis another opportunity in 2024, the Titans may find themselves with the first overall pick, aiming to acquire their franchise quarterback.
“The Titans might afford Will Levis the 2024 season, but if he fails to solidify his position, they might seek a replacement in the 2025 NFL Draft.
“Sanders exhibited impressive performance in 2023, completing 69 percent of his passes for 3,230 yards, 27 touchdowns, and three interceptions, along with scoring four rushing touchdowns. Multiple team sources believed Sanders (6-2, 215) had the potential to be a first-round pick in the 2024 NFL Draft,” they assert.
CBS Sports anticipates that Tennessee will conclude with the second overall pick, adding cornerback/wide receiver Hunter to their lineup, immediately following Sanders’ selection by the Carolina Panthers as the first overall pick.
“Imagine if I had told you five years ago that not only would Colorado produce two first-round draft picks, but they would also have the opportunity to be top-10 picks. Hunter possesses exceptional talent, appearing to be an NFL star on both offense and defense,” CBS Sports remarks.
The Titans could benefit from both players, and their performance in the 2024 season may position them for a promising start to the 2025 NFL Draft. Whether their fortunes improve this season or not, they have two high-caliber options at the top of the draft who could make a significant impact at the professional level.
