The Titans selected Cam Ward with the first pick of the NFL Draft, pinning their hopes of revival on a creative, playmaking quarterback who brings a completely new vibe to the East Bank of the Cumberland River.
Why it matters: The best version of the Titans the last two decades was a gritty, lunchpail brand of football that featured sturdy defense and rushing attacks led by battering rams Eddie George and Derrick Henry.
Ward's flamboyant style of quarterback play adds a splash of neon that fits well in an internationally renowned entertainment city like Nashville.
