New Titans GM Mike Borgonzi is leaving no stone unturned when making decisions regarding the number 1 pick in the 2025 draft.  He stated flatly that the organization will not pass on a “generational talent.”

The reading between the lines for the newly minted general manager of the Titans is that neither of the consensus top two quarterbacks, former Colorado QB Shedeur Sanders or Heisman finalist Miami  QB Cam Ward, are considered “generational talent” by scouts or front offices.

The player that alluded to as a generational talent is Heisman winner Travis Hunter, the most unique prospect we’ve seen in the modern era.  Hunter recorded 4 interceptions in 2024, while also recording over 1000 yards receiving.  He is considered the top corner in the draft, and is a top 3-5 receiver prospect.

Tennessee desperately needs a quarterback, as 2nd year man Will Levis currently provides the franchise with little in the way of a long term solution, but drafting a need over best player available is how bad teams stay bad.  If the Titans choose Travis Hunter, they run the risk of joining the veteran QB carousel many teams are on until they find their franchise guy.  The conundrum makes for outstanding suspense.
