QB Cam Ward Hoping He’s the Pick at No.1 for Titans 

GREEN BAY, Wisc. – Cam Ward got a hug from NFL commissioner Roger Goodell here on Wednesday.

Will he get another one, on stage Thursday night, after being picked first overall by the Titans in the NFL Draft?

Well, Ward sure hopes so.

“I got a chance to learn more about (the Titans) personally over the last couple of months, and I am excited to hopefully hear my name called first, to go to a good organization like that,” Ward said at an NFLPlay60 event on Wednesday, just outside Lambeau Field. “They have a great owner, a great GM, great assistant GM, great president. The team there, they have a pretty elite team, in my opinion – they don’t get enough credit on paper for what they really are. So, if I am there, I know it will turn out good.”

Ward said it was great to meet “Miss Amy” – owner Amy Adams Strunk – during the process.

He also had praise for Titans coach Brian Callahan while saying he’s already interacted with Oilers legend Warren Moon and current Titans receiver Calvin Ridley.

“It was really good, meeting Miss Amy for the first time,” Ward said. “Getting a chance to actually put a face with a name, hear about where she’s from, her dad (founder and long-time owner Bud Adams), what they were back in Houston when they had the Oilers. It’s a good organization.”
