Shedeur Sanders was a college star during last season, largely due to the hype and the relationships his father, Deion Sanders, built throughout his career. Coach Primetime helped the Colorado program-and specifically his son, Shedeur-gain more attention than any other college team.
The Giants’ quarterback who was drafted before Shedeur Sanders
However, the former Buffaloes quarterback kept falling further down the draft board during Thursday night’s NFL Draft until a surprise occurred. The Giants traded up, preparing to select a quarterback, but they chose someone other than Shedeur. Instead, they picked Jaxson Dart, an Ole Miss alumnus who showcased his immense talent during the latest college season.
In a recent video with Jon Gruden, Jaxson Dart displayed a moment that might not sit well with Giants fans. When the former Raiders head coach asked him to demonstrate the snap count, Dart simply clapped instead of performing the drill. Gruden was taken aback. Is Dart truly a first-round talent? Will he shine in the NFL?
The Giants’ decision surprised many in the football world, but they weren’t the only team that overlooked Shedeur; the Saints, Steelers, Raiders, and Titans all let him pass as well.
It’s clear that Sanders possesses significant talent and will make those teams regret their choice. This raises the question: what are these teams trying to avoid? Are they steering clear of Deion Sanders and his ongoing controversies? Or do they doubt Shedeur’s abilities?
Every year, rookie quarterbacks entering the NFL have the chance to work within a project and be the focal point. This season will reveal the outcomes, but I personally have a good feeling about Jaxson Dart with the Giants, Cam Ward with Tennessee, and I believe Shedeur will contribute significantly to the league, no matter which team he ends up with.

The incident saw Norris' first retirement in almost 12 months, with his last failure to see the chequered flag coming at the 2024 Austrian Grand Prix when he collided with Max Verstappen."Obviously it's an episode which cost him championship points," said Stella."It's an episode that for his own admission he said, 'the principle was clear, I just made a misjudgement'. He never came to say, 'let's talk about it'. "This may have an impact in terms of his confidence, but it's up to us as a team to show our […]

Paul Skenes returns to Omaha for a brief visit to the arena that changed his life
OMAHA, Neb. — In the far corner of the bar, on a Monday afternoon, towered Paul Skenes.He drank only water, yet all around him swirled an intoxicated mayhem, a frenzied hurricane of purple and gold. This was the Men’s College World Series in full, drunken bloom: Jell-O shots by the trayful, sticky floors, ball games on big screens, a sea of golf shirts. LSU chants erupted sporadically across the crowd. One particularly well-prepared fan led a cheer with a trumpet.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementAt Rocco’s, the unofficial hub of Omaha’s pregame, midgame and postgame debauchery, the party had already reached a rolling boil. Across the street, Arkansas starter Gage Wood had just tossed the first MCWS no-hitter since 1960, an elimination-game gem to keep his Razorbacks’ season alive. Back at Rocco’s, the final out elicited cheers and reluctant appreciation from the LSU faithful.Behind a […]
