(Reuters) -The Tennessee Titans selected University of Miami quarterback Cam Ward with the first overall pick of the NFL Draft on Thursday.
Titans fans on hand for the draft in Green Bay cheered when NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell called Ward’s name first as expected.
Those fans will look to the Heisman finalist to help turn the franchise’s fortunes around after three straight losing seasons.
