I think it’s a combination of the teams not grading him as highly as many so called experts like Kiper and more importantly not wanting to deal with the circus that goes with drafting him.
'25 NFL Draft Day 2 Thread
- Thread starter Tom McAndrew
- Start date
NFL Network not entirely playing that game. Joel Klatt saying last night that it is time Sanders takes a long hard look in the mirror. Daniel Jeremiah saying someone close to him needs to take him away from the spotlight and have him contact teams and tell them that he is ready to come in and work hard. They all admitted that this turn of events has proven that teams look at him as a backup and not a first year starter and that he needs to change his mindset to that.
Absolutely embarrassing coverage - especially ESPN. Kiper having seizures about this and they’re missing all the real stars being drafted. Shameful.
Here Kiper’s rant includes saying Sanders didn’t have any help despite having a Heisman winning WR on his team. Clown.
Son of Falcons coordinator behind Sanders prank
The son of Falcons defensive coordinator Jeff Ulbrich admitted to being the one behind a prank call to Shedeur Sanders during Day 2 of the NFL draft.

I’m sure it’s all just a misunderstanding.
The NFL just fined the Falcons $250k, as it was the son of a Falcons assistant coach who made the prank call to Sanders.

Did he do all the prank calls? Because like 5 guys were pranked including Tyler Warren (Sanders getting special treatment?).....
If I understand correctly, the Falcons were fined $250K, and their assistant coach (the father of the kid that made the prank) was also fined $100K.
