Colorado Buffaloes quarterback Shedeur Sanders is having another excellent season in Boulder and looks poised to become a top-five pick in April’s 2025 NFL Draft.
Proving 2023 was no fluke, Shedeur Sanders is faring even better than last year. He comes into Saturday’s game against Utah with a 72.9 completion percentage for 2,882 passing yards, 24 touchdowns, six interceptions and four rushing scores.
Sanders headlines a deep group of quarterbacks for the 2025 draft class that includes Georgia’s Carson Beck, Alabama’s Jalen Milroe, Miami’s Cameron Ward and Texas’ Quinn Ewers. His father and Buffs head coach, Deion Sanders, has made it no secret that he’ll try and influence where Shedeur lands.
Coach Prime was a guest on FOX Sports’ “SPEAK” program. There, the two-time Super Bowl champion was asked what he’ll want from the team that drafts his son:
“Somebody that can handle the quarterback that (Shedeur) is. Somebody that can handle understanding what he’s capable of. Someone that has had success in the past handling quarterbacks or someone in an organization [who] understands what they’re doing, not just throwing you out there amongst the wolves.”
