The Titans officially have a new quarterback ...
Cam Ward !! Brian Callahan and Co. just took the former University of Miami signal-caller with the first overall pick in Thursday night's NFL draft ..
. and based on some early reaction around the internet, Tennessee fans everywhere are stoked with the acquisition. Ward, too, seemed pumped to be heading to the Volunteer State .
.. as he had a huge grin on his face while he walked toward Roger Goodell at Lambeau Field in Green Bay, Wis.
to accept the honor. The Titans currently have Will Levis , Brandon Allen and Tim Boyle in their quarterback room ..
. but, barring something unforeseen, Ward is expected to be QB1 by the time the regular season rolls around in September. Ward is, of course, deserving of the role .
.. especially considering he dominated in his senior season with the Hurricanes, throwing for 4,313 yards, 39 touchdowns and just seven interceptions.
Warren Moon -- who played for the Titans' org. when it was the Oilers -- told TMZ Sports just before the draft he considered Ward "the most talented" thrower in the draft ..
. adding that he loved the 22-year-old's arm and mobility. Won't be long before Titans fans pack Nissan Stadium to see it all in person .
.. but, until then, expect chaos on Broadway from happy Tennessee backers!.
