The 2025 NFL Draft order is heating up, and if the Tennessee Titans secure the No. 1 overall pick, they should strongly consider selecting Shedeur Sanders as their quarterback of the future.
In Week 15, the race for the top draft spot intensified, with most teams in contention struggling on the field. The New York Jets were the only team in the top 10 that managed to avoid a loss, while the other contenders faced defeats, with six teams losing by more than ten points.
Here’s how the current draft order looks:
1. Las Vegas Raiders (2-12)
2. New York Giants (2-12)
3. New England Patriots (3-11)
4. Jacksonville Jaguars (3-11)
5. Carolina Panthers (3-11)
6. Tennessee Titans (3-11)
7. Cleveland Browns (3-11)
8. New York Jets (4-10)
9. Chicago Bears (4-10)
10. New Orleans Saints (5-9)
This week’s focus is on the Titans, who may find themselves in a position to make a significant change at quarterback. Following Will Levis’ disappointing performance in a 37-27 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals, where he committed four turnovers, the team’s confidence in him has waned. Coach Brian Callahan had previously stated that Levis would remain the starter as long as he was healthy, but this loss has raised new questions.
McKenna: Shedeur Sanders stands out as a prime candidate for the Titans. Nashville offers a quieter media environment compared to larger markets, allowing Sanders to grow without the constant pressure of intense scrutiny. This could be a perfect fit for his development as he transitions to the NFL.
Coach Brian Callahan, who previously helped mold Joe Burrow into a star quarterback in Cincinnati, could provide the guidance Sanders needs to thrive. Pairing Sanders with a coach experienced in developing elite talent could yield positive results for the Titans.
The Titans may also want to consider that teams often seek to move away from what has not worked in the past. Sanders offers a different skill set than Levis, who was viewed as a potential Josh Allen clone with his strong arm and athleticism. While Sanders may not possess the same physical attributes, he has proven to be a capable quarterback, and his unique strengths could be attractive to a team looking for a fresh start.
Arthur: However, there is the question of whether Shedeur Sanders would even want to join the Titans. Deion Sanders has previously mentioned that he might advise his son against certain teams, and the Titans could be among those he views skeptically. With Nashville being a smaller market and the Titans struggling since their strong 2021 season, potential uncertainty about the team’s direction could factor into their decision-making process. The future of the Callahan-Ran Carthon regime is already under scrutiny after just one year, which may further complicate the appeal of joining this franchise.
