Titans GM says team won’t trade out of No. 1 pick

The Tennessee Titans entertained offers but decided they will not trade the No. 1 overall pick in the NFL draft.
New Titans general manager Mike Borgonzi said at the team's pre-draft press conference Tuesday that other teams were interested in trading up, but "the entire organization" came to the consensus decision to keep
"As we got towards the end of the process, we decided that ultimately we're going to stay," Borgonzi said.
Borgonzi wasn't tipping who the Titans plan to select No. 1, but it's widely expected to be Miami quarterback Cam Ward. A large contingent from the franchise attended Miami's pro day to see Ward, including team owner Amy Adams Strunk.
The Titans previoulsy drafted quarterbacks Malik Willis and Will Levis in 2022 and 2023. But Tennessee dealt Willis to Green Bay last August and appear ready to move on from Levis, who has a 5-16 record as a starter in two mediocre NFL seasons.
Borgonzi is entering his first NFL draft as a general manager. He was hired by the Titans after working in a variety of scouting and front office roles for the Kansas City Chiefs from 2009-24.
The New York Giants, who select third overall, were one team reported to have interest in moving up to the top pick.
The first round of the draft is Thursday in Green Bay, Wis.
