Overview

  • Shedeur Sanders' draft position has become increasingly uncertain, with projections ranging from the top 3 to potentially outside the top 10.
  • The New York Giants are unlikely to select Sanders at No. 3, having added veteran quarterbacks Russell Wilson and Jameis Winston to their roster.
  • The Cleveland Browns remain interested but may prioritize other needs, with speculation they could trade back into the first round to draft Sanders.
  • Concerns about Sanders' decision-making, sack rate, and perceived arrogance have contributed to doubts, despite his strong college statistics and leadership qualities.
  • Teams like the Pittsburgh Steelers, New Orleans Saints, and Los Angeles Rams are emerging as possible landing spots if Sanders falls in the draft.
