The Tennessee Titans’ offensive struggles aren’t a secret. In fact, those struggles are plainly and painfully obvious to anyone who watches even a single snap the Titans play. Right now, Amy Adams Strunk says she’s standing by Ran Carthon and Brian Callahan, trusting their process, but something has to change.
That something needs to be the quarterback. Will Levis simply isn’t cutting it on this team. He has potential, but he needs to sit behind a veteran who can mentor him for at least one season (likely more) so he can work on the fundamentals, figure out a better decision-making process, learn not to panic under pressure, etc. Mason Rudolph isn’t proving to be any better, either.
Pro Football Focus released its latest mock draft for 2025 to address that need. After the loss to the Detroit Lions on Sunday, the Titans are currently slated to pick second behind the Carolina Panthers. With that second pick, PFF predicts that the Titans will select Colorado quarterback Shedeur Sanders, son of the infamous Deion Sanders.
2. TENNESSEE TITANS: QB SHEDEUR SANDERS, COLORADO
Record: 1-6
PFF Power Ranking: 29
Team Needs: QB, WR, OTSanders has the most consistently high-level tape of any quarterback in this draft class. His pocket-passing style would pair seamlessly with head coach Brian Callahan, who spent years working with Joe Burrow as Cincinnati’s offensive coordinator. Together, they could form an ideal quarterback-coach duo.
Sanders may be the most consistent in his class, but that does not mean he is ready for the NFL field. Even if he does pair well with Brian Callahan, is he really a Day 1 starter as a rookie? Because that’s what the Titans need. They need a guy who can come in, take over, and lead this team to the next level.
This is just a mock, though, and even if the Titans pick second, their best bet for a quarterback is to go back to Green Bay and beg for Malik Willis to be returned.
