The Tennessee Titans seem to be one team that wants to select a quarterback in the first round.
They are set to pick 11th overall, but seeing them trade up would not be a surprise.
It remains to be seen how the first few picks unfold, but the Titans might look to trade up to third overall.
At that spot, they should be able to pick the second quarterback in the draft.
Specifically, they would move up to No. 3 to draft Ohio State quarterback C.J. Stroud.
But, if the Titans cannot move up that far, Peter Schrager thinks there is another move they could make.
Schrager said on the Pat McAfee Show that the Titans could move up to No. 8 overall to select Anthony Richardson.

Richardson is one of the most polarizing prospects in this class.
He has everything you look for in a franchise quarterback, including size, speed, and arm strength.
But Richardson is a raw prospect and will take some time to develop.
It might pay for Richardson to sit behind Ryan Tannehill a year before taking over in 2024.
Some first-round quarterbacks are more ready to play than others.
Richardson did not have much college production, which is why it would be shocking if he had success in his first year as a pro.
Either way, the Titans seem aggressive to make a move on Thursday night.
They plan on being one team that walks away with a quarterback.
