One thing that cannot be said about former University of Miami quarterback Cam Ward is that he lacks confidence in himself. Someone asked Ward who was closer to winning a Super Bowl, the Tennessee Titans or the New York Giants. Ward gave a cocky yet confident answer to the question.
Cam Ward Believes Whatever Team Selects Him Will Be Closer to Super Bowl Win
Someone involved in the conversation said it was Tennessee. Ward disagreed in part, but also surreptitiously agreed in part.
“Which ever one drafts Cam Ward”, Ward said.
Cam Ward: "Who you think closer to a ring outta Tennessee Titans, Cleveland Browns or New York Giants???"
Someone said: "Tennessee"
Cam Ward: "Which ever one drafts Cam Ward" 😂😂🦾

Ward cemented himself as one of the two best passers in the class. Only Colorado’s Shedeur Sanders appears poised to contend as the top passer picked in the 2025 NFL Draft. Although the two passers share a few similarities — mainly in their flaws — they couldn’t be much different regarding their NFL projection.
From PFN Scouting Analyst Dalton Miller: “Drafting Ward is chasing the dragon, while selecting Sanders is trying to extract every bit of upside in his frame to become a top-10 NFL QB.
If a team forces Ward on the field as a rookie, it will likely lead to disaster. He’s not cognitively ready to work within an offensive structure on an NFL timeline. You’ll see the same social media highlight throws he made at Miami to a lesser degree while the turnovers remain a thorn in his side.
He’ll be a 23-year-old rookie, but the position boasts longevity sans serious injury. Ward’s age is not a problem. The lack of development and continuation of frustrating mistakes makes a leap at the NFL level feel more fleeting. We’ve seen him light up the world in non-conference play for three seasons now at Washington State and Miami only to regress as the season progresses.
In short, Ward’s bad habits must be removed through an insane volume of offseason repetitions with his personal position coach. That will take time, and taking live reps at the NFL level will likely only reinforce the bad habits he currently ails from.
Caleb Williams was a far better prospect than Ward, and he very much struggled with similar timing issues in his first season as a professional quarterback. Nevertheless, Ward’s ceiling is incredibly high because he possesses an impressive frame, athleticism, velocity, and accuracy.”
