When the Titans achieved the number 1 team on the last day of the regular season, the then general manager ran Cartchon would face a difficult choice between Ward and Sheuren Sanders as the best field marshal.
But, as the low season advanced and Carthon was replaced by former chief executive Mike Borgonzi, it was clear that the NFL was not going for another Peyton Manning-Ryan sheet, Andrew Luck-Robert at the top.
Ward, a recruit of zero stars outside the high school that starred incarnate and the state of Washington for two seasons each rose to another level in its only season in Miami, moved away from Sanders and ends in what Widwhars was considered.

But his film shows some inexplicable decisions that suggest that he does not know when to stop playing superhero and manage the way to victory.
“There are some things that will do five times for game that only a handful of people on Earth can do, and that is the best field marshal in this year’s class,” said an offensive coach from the NFL to the post. “There will be a lot of growth. There will be some (hard) days. But I bet on some things that you cannot train.”
It was expected that Sanders’ landing place became the main story of the first round. According to the reports, some teams felt that I was closer as a prospect for Jaxson Dart-Maybe just behind Dart in a first three-quarter round that was at the top.
Ward is the first general selection No. 1 never made by the Titans, he thought that his predecessors (Houston Oilers) began the drafts of 1973 and 1978.
It is expected to sign a four -year contract and $ 43 million under the NFL rookie salary scale.
“CAM is confident,” said Operations President Chad Brinker before the National Team was made. “I Would Say He’s Cocky. There’s a Fine Line Between The Two and He Carries Himself The Right Way. Quick Mind, Quick Mind, Quick Mind, Quick Mind, Quick Mind, Quick Mind, Quick Mind, Quick Mind, Quick Mind, Quick Mind, Quick Mind. ” “” “” “” “” “” “” “.” “” “

When sitting at the top of the free agent quarterback market while confirming Brows Allen and Tim Boyle backups, the Titans got their cap in their plans so that Ward is the Savior.
“In my opinion, in my opinion,” an optimistic room told journalists at the Draft on Wednesday about joining a list of 3-14. “They don’t get enough paper loan for what they really are. If I’m there, I know it’s going well.”
Ward completed 67.2 percent of his passes for 4,313 yards and 39 touchdowns against only seven interceptions last season.
“There is a robustness in the way Cam Ward plays that really reminds me of me or Josh Allen,” said former general manager of the Jets, Mike Tannenbaum, about “Get Up” of ESPN. “In Tennessee, they can be receiving a star.”
Borgonzi explored the Chiefs when they chose the left Tackle Eric Fisher at number 1 in 2013, instead of a field marshal in a class that produced the second round Geno Smith as his sign.
He was also in Kansas City when there was a strong condemnation of franchise by exchanging until the draft of Patrick Mahomes at number 10 in 2017 even though Alex Smith came out or a Pro Bowl season.
And he decided that Ward was worth the risk.
