Shedeur Sanders
 

Anyone have him falling out of the first round completely?
Shocking.

He's not a very good quarterback although the physical tools are there.

The Colorado buffaloes have experienced an uptick and talent and results, It's not like he came in here and won the pac-12 or the big whatever. The buffalos never made the college football playoff even with the team expansion. He was throwing the ball to what many people consider to be the best athlete in the draft this year. If you draft him you have to deal with his family.

Ball all of that up together and would you draft him? I wouldn't unless I was desperate.

Steelers don't have a QB, maybe they go get him?

Do the Steelers need sunglasses?

Knowing who his dad is and all the crap that was talked about "who he wouldn't play for so don't draft me" stuff, I'm not suprised at all. There's only been a couple of guys who tried to determine where they went and I don't see him in that class.

Aint nobody got time for Bronny Jr.

Did he actually say that?

I read a report that he would be excited to play anywhere he was drafted.

I read/heard somewhere that dad was letting a few teams know that they didn't need to waste a pick on him because he wouldn't go there. Don't really remember but I think it was dad saying he would convince/advise/stop him from certain teams. All behind the curtain all hush-hush, not a widespread announcement.

I saw a quote from an anonymous VP of personnel said “worst interview I’ve ever seen”

Plus his record was something like 13-12 and no title

He's simply not good enough to be as arrogant as he is.

He's going to need to be humbled like Baker was IMO.

Who wants that circus?

Then if the steelers do take him, with tomlin on the hot seat, Daddy will be angling for that job.

I did read this.

The report said he seemed “disinterested”, which is never a good look in job interviews.

Now that you mention it, I do believe I read about that somewhere.

It’s definitely possible that Shedeur would use his dad as a mouthpiece by proxy. Let him publicly say the things that he can’t.. could also have been Deion being Deion and doing his own thing. Could also have been bogus from the start.

Either way, I am interested in seeing how his career develops. He will have many, many haters.

I heard this too. It was anonymous, but OTOH, it sounds about right.

I can't imagine how much trouble a kid like this would be if things aren't going right. I'm reminded of the trouble Mike Leach had at Texas Tech when he took Craig James' entitled brat kid into the program. No coach wants to deal with any situation like that.

Browns is my assumption.

His interviews with Teams apparently went poorly, so no, this doesn’t surprise me at all. Also, he was far more interested in taking a sack vs throwing incompletions. I’m NOT a fan at all.

Conversely, I love Cam Ward. Dude is absolutely solid

Bert Breer on local tv about a week ago had him in the second round

He's got big shoes to fill to be even close to as good as his daddy.

Someone will take a chance on him - Pitt, Cleveland, LV, NO, or LAR. He's not going undrafted.

ESPN’s comp for him is Jared Goff.

He's going to Cleveland where he'll never be heard from again.

Browns are stupid. They could have gotten Hunter and Shedeur.

He will go somewhere in the 2nd. He seems similar to Geno Smith who many thought would be a high pick, but fell to the 2nd.

I liked the comp the Browns received.

The #2, a 4th and 6th for #5, 2nd, 4th and 2026 1st is huge. The Browns could end up sitting on two top 5 picks in 2026, which should be a more QB friendly draft.

Right, and it ain't just a 2026 first. It's the Jaguars 2026 first. That team ****ing sucks and as nice a player as Hunter is they'll still almost assuredly be picking top 10 next season with a real possibility of top 5.

He built himself a draft night setup in his home… only to watch as he fell out of the first round.

I’m sure it’s super difficult to find a .500 college quarterback with a pain in the ass, drama family who will cause you grief if things aren’t going their way.



I’m not surprised. He’s not that good. He’s not Jaylen Daniel’s.

this is silly. Baker was never humbled... he went to the Browns, who will readily admit giving up on him and selling the farm for Watson was soooo dumb.

GM’s saw this shit and knew he wouldn’t get any respect from a locker room as a 1st rd pick.

You just can’t do this stupid shit if you’re the QB

He doesn't come off like he will work hard and lead a team. That's a problem anf his dad will be a distraction who can't stut his mouth.

Baker was definitely humbled. He won the Heisman, and was the 1.1 pick, and he had to beg teams for a chance to start after Cleveland. If the NFL QB situation wasn't so bad, he may not even be a starter now because he may never have gotten an opportunity to prove himself.

I personally think Sanders is comparable to Tua, as they are both accurate with very mid arms, and they are both probably near the bottom in athleticism for an NFL QB.

Herbert hasn't won anything, but if I was a Dolphins fan, I would still be wondering what Herbert to Hill would have looked like.

So, why is that a first round pick? I mean, he wasn't even Geno Smith in college, so why would he be a first round pick?

The ESPN/NFL Network hype machines did everything they could to promote Sanders as the possible first overall pick, but it wasn't because he should have been a first round pick, and more about viewership and clicks, and now social media is ripe with fools claiming it was racial, blah blah blah.

I love it!

Ha ha!

He already thinks of himself as legendary. ��*♂️
And he’s been fed this BS his entire life growing up.

His Daddy is his biggest fan

He has the Cowboys or Raiders written all over him

The baker mayfield example is a great one. But not for the reasons you think.

I hated the idea of bringing Odell Beckham to kc. I just care too too much about locker room drama. I can handle off the field character issues if people like you. What he did to throw his coaches and baker under the bus was despicable. Yet people let him off the hook because he’s charismatic and talented. I don’t want teammates like that. It was a unique thing because Odell was liked by teammates but to the point of turning everyone against certain teammates. I feel like that’s shedeurs destiny. He has the same bad habit of throwing his teammates under the bus but the media loves it because it’s entertaining and “charming.”

Unless he has Patrick Mahomes like talent or your team is just super desperate to get media attention, that is a huge red flag.

Mahomes record wasn’t great, but he isn’t a colossal ****head either.

To say he acts entitled is an understatement … meanwhile, the packers kid is trying to buy his grandmother a home after it burned down in a fire.

You missed the main part.


His Brand Name on it called "Legendary".

Just like most home improvement projects, the ROI just wasn't there.

I think the better question is... who the **** had this guy IN the first round?

Did the experts just think, well some franchise is stupid enough to do it... which tbh is a legit argument.

In the first 10 picks of Round 2 the Browns have 2 picks, and the Saints and the Jets have 1. If he gets past those picks he is probably ****ed. If he doesn't he is probably also ****ed.

The Legendary logo is a Dollar $ squared.

Thinking about it the best landing spot for Shadeur to actually become a successful starter and have a career to me looks like Indianapolis. Might have gone Steelers but they don't have a second round pick.

If the Browns don't take him, the next team down would be the Saints. And if they don't take him... the Jets. Of course, there is potential for trades, too. I can see Tampa drafting him.

The objective here is probably a future in front of a camera/cameras

If he goes to the Browns we all know how this ends.

If he goes to the Jets.. LOL.

The Saints are probably his best bet.

It would be hilarious to see him go in the 3rd round.

What physical tools does he have? He has subpar arm strength, he isn't mobile, and he has the worst sack rate in college history despite playing in an offense that was designed for him. He's a 3rd or 4th round prospect.

Pittsburgh has the 83rd pick. :jester:

Generally speaking QBs are overdrafted every year. Weak teams have to take swings. Just a month or two ago Sanders and Ward were the consensus #1 and #2 QBs.

While I dont think Sanders was an early first round QB, he warrants a shot in late 1st or 2nd round. His accuracy is said to be excellent and he did most of his work with a horrible Oline. If he had a different last name it's possible he wouldn't have had so much bad press.

Having said that, Ive read his interviews were horrible so that did him no favors.

He would have had a way better record if he didn't have the worst defense in CFB.

I think the entitlement, his helicopter dad, and inability to time his throws is why he's sliding

I’ll never watch espn’s draft coverage as long as Mel kiper is there after last night. He took it so personally that sanders wasn’t picked- he totally ruined Jaxson Dart’s moment to crap all over Dart so he could build up Sanders

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Mel Kiper was angry last night<br><br>instead of celebrating 32 kids seeing their dreams fulfilled… he tried to turn the whole production into a show about Shedeur Sanders not getting selected<br><br>here’s 9 minutes of Mel’s agenda taking over the night (and this wasn’t even everything) <a href="https://t.co/CxCkvlHeH7">pic.twitter.com/CxCkvlHeH7</a></p>&mdash; Warren Sharp (@SharpFootball) <a href="https://twitter.com/SharpFootball/status/1915789532785524958?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">April 25, 2025</a></blockquote> <script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

Yeah, Mel Kiper was off on his constant Sanders talk. Def ruined Darts moment.

Who is the Sanders fan downvoting posts?!

Uh oh...

Kiper gets these weird draft crushes from time to time.

Browns will take him at the top of the 2nd, no one else wants him.

It's why I flipped between Chiefs youtube creators this draft. There's homers and goobers but it's all Chiefs related and how it impacts KC's draft instead of random presenters and 5 minute stretches of comments about someone's outfit.

Even when bad it's better than ESPN.

He's not a better QB than Chase Daniel and that guy went undrafted.

2nd round is cuz of daddy's name alone.

If the Browns pass with their current QB situation, that would be pretty damning for the dude. I can't see it happening.

It felt like Kiper was being paid to promote him. Watching him get overly defensive about his fall made it even more enjoyable.

And you're going to have to put up with daddy.

Yeah I think he is going to crash and burn in the NFL and it's going to be fun to watch.

If the whole NFL is out on him that's damning. The Browns by themselves passing on him tells me nothing because they are probably the absolute dumbest franchise in existence.

He seems to me the type of QB that would get a coach fired. Browns maybe better off adding pieces to their roster and hope for a QB next year.

Yeah I did. I bet the under 2.5 QBs taken in the first round prop bet at +170. That profit covered 12% of what I lost on the under in the first game of the Royals doubleheader.

12% ain't nothing.

Interesting, if true.

What's weird is to see Keiper with short gray hair. I remember his long combed back brown hair back in the day. But he still sounds like a dickwad a lot of the time. He's very knowledgeable, but also very dickwad sounding.

I just saw the experts list on nfln and they had him as the 20th best player left on the board. So yeah, they clearly thought somebody was going to really reach for him early.

Sanders has starting level talent.


I could see a more prepared Geno Smith.


That isn't legendary though...

I hope he wins the Mr, Irrelevant Tropy

I am surprised the Steelers didn't draft him then surprised the Browns didnt.

He doesn't have the biggest arm and despite who his father is he is not an elite athlete but he's really pretty accurate and a good playmaker on the run.

He had the worst offensive line in power 5 football last year. It was truly putrid and he still put up numbers. Colorado is a weird team because they would have like 6 guys on their team who are really good and then HUGE holes at almost every other position.

I would argue hes a good QB and the physical tools arent there as much.

Sanders like Mahomes doesn't play defense.

I think a big reason he isn't getting drafted is because NFL head coaches who have say who they draft are scared if they get him and he struggles it will be their head and they will rush to Deion to coach him.

Holy shit another non-Shedeur QB just got drafted.

It’s not the physical tools that has been keeping him from being drafted.
