Going #1: Cam Ward

Welcome Back to all of my sports lovers! This week I will be beginning a 3 blog series covering the NFL Draft. Today we will celebrating the number 1 overall draft pick Cam Ward.

The NFL draft concluded this past week with the Tennessee Titans selecting Cam with the #1 overall pick.

With all of the hype around where Shedeur was going to end up, Cam wasn’t being talked about enough for me. I wanted to use this blog to not only celebrate his accomplishments but also talk about some of the guaranteed perks that comes with being taken first in a professional league draft.

Cam is from West Columbia, TX and comes from a sports family. His parents come from a sports background with his dad playing football and his mom coaching basketball.

In HS, Cam wasn’t recruited but still ended up going to 3 colleges to pursue his dreams. Cam had his breakout season when he transferred to Miami University where he solidified his NFL status.

Cam taking advantage of the NIL process in the NCAA, he was able to improve his draft status and ultimately became ACC Player of the year, Manning Award Winner, and a Heisman Trophy Finalist.

Ward was drafted by the Tennessee Titans! A dream come true but also the dedication, hard work, sacrifice. A great pickup by the Titans as they begin to rebuild. With being drafted #1, Cam not only gets a signing bonus but a guaranteed rookie salary as well. I am sure sponsorships and endorsement deals are on the way as well. Too Exciting!

Cam brings his arm mobility, the ability to make plays and make not only him but his teammates around him better. I am excited to watch him play! I hope he gets tons of coverage, he has earned it!

Congrats Cam and welcome to the NFL, you are going to do amazing things.

Next week, I will talk about the draft in it’s entirety. Can you guess how many players from Ohio State were drafted? (find out next week)

As always thanks for reading!
