ESPN's Bill Barnwell identified only four Tennessee Titans players as having potential first-round trade value in his annual report. The Titans, who have faced significant struggles, recently selected their third head coach and general manager since 2022. Among the identified players were quarterback Cam Ward and defensive tackle Jeffrey Simmons. Two others, Peter Skowroński and Carnell Tate, also made the list, though Tate has yet to play in the NFL. The team's history of poor drafts, with no players remaining from the 2020, 2021, or 2022 classes, complicates their roster situation.
- •Titans have won 12 of their last 59 games since 2022.
- •Only four players on the roster are viewed as potential first-round trade assets.
- •Cam Ward is valued at two first-round picks.
- •No players from the 2020, 2021, or 2022 draft remain on the roster.
