[Tom McAndrew]

Please use this thread for any/all discussions about Day 2 picks in the 2025 NFL Draft

I would have preferred to continue with last night's thread but subject lines matter. New Orleans picked the quarterback from Louisville, Sanders is still waiting.

 

[Nittering Nabob]

Bump in hopes that this thread is the official Friday Night place to place your opinions.

 

[Midnighter]

Nailed it.

 

[Midnighter]

Saints drafted this dude over Sanders?

 

[LionJim]

Unless the Raiders pick him, Sanders will fall into the third round. He must have been a terrible interview.

Those goofy Golden Retrievers want to be part of everything. That said, get a glimpse of the blondes (short white dress; another in black dress with tan lines) celebrating in the second row. En Fuego.

Steve Wisniewski announced the choice for the Raiders, another player I've never heard of before.

I predict that neither the Chefs nor the Iggles will pick him. You heard it here first.

My only caveat to suggesting NFL Network over ESPN is I can’t stand Kyle Brandt. When he comes on, I change it.

Meanwhile, shedeur watching the draft:

 

[LionJim]

Cleveland will pick Sanders, third pick of the third round.

Nope. Fannin of Bowling Green.

 

[Catch1lion]

Cleveland will pick Sanders, third pick of the third round.

 

[LB99]

Nope. Fannin of Bowling Green.

How did Fannin drop to the third round?

How did Fannin drop to the third round?

I was shocked at the number of TEs that went ahead of him. He’s a bit of a tweener, but think he thrives in the right system.

 

[grinagrin]

K.J. Winston to the Titans, 82 pick.

 

[BiochemPSU]

It has to be some combination of he’s just a crap human being, no one wants the circus that he or his dad bring, or the nfl has again shifted and if you aren’t graded a QB 1, see you in the bottom rounds. Basically I’m not paying you big money to flop; if you have a strong chance to flop, you can flop for cheap.

 

[LB99]

Sanders must have come off as a complete d bag in team interviews.

I’d think there is a part of “we have our starting QB, and you don’t seem to be ok accepting a role holding a clipboard and waiting your turn”.

Then what about the Steelers?

 

[Erial_Lion]

Dave Robinson sighting…looks pretty darn good for 83.

You mean like all his other interviews?

 

[Erial_Lion]

Then what about the Steelers?

If it ever happens, Rodgers certainly isn’t coming to sit.

 

[Midnighter]

No combine, no Senior Bowl. Wanted to be drafted on his name alone. That said, he’s better than the guy the Saints took. My guess is they didn’t want Coach Dad Deion all up in their sh*t.

 

[LionJim]

To bed! U Maryland has their Spring Festival tomorrow, spring game at noon, I won’t go to that. Hope the weather holds. I’ll drop by the math library to check out my dissertation in the stacks.

And this gem:
“If you ain’t trying to change the franchise or the culture, don’t get me,”

“Okay.”

This looks like a bit of a Collin Kapernick situation more so than a bad interview answer. I think the league is sending the young man and his dad a message. What that is actually based on though, I’m not sure.

I think it's more likely that nobody thinks he's very good. If anybody thought he could help them win, they would take him.

Shedeur Sanders remains undrafted after Round 3 of NFL draft

Shedeur Sanders remains undrafted entering the fourth round of the NFL draft. Coverage resumes Saturday at noon ET on ESPN.

I’m sure father will be making some type of an announcement setting the situation right and letting all the GMs know how wrong they were.

Steelers can take him in 4th round. That is a scenario I can get behind. Very cheap in the 4th round. How many starters come out of the 4th round that didn’t drop thwre besides the clown show that their family brings. Can Tomlin and the Steelers control Deion?

I’d be ok with taking him now also. As you said, lower cost, less risk if he flops. Plus, maybe he uses this as motivation and focuses on the game more than his image. Also, seeing other places that they like McCord from Syracuse and could be targeting him in the later rounds.

I hadn’t realized until just now that both Milroe and Gabriel have been drafted.

It’s a message to colleges as well.

He's walking around with a huge chain around his neck that says Legendary. CU just retired his number. His attitude is like he should be inducted into Canton right now. You aren't legendary. If you have that kind of attitude you are legendary from day one you better be exactly that and he isn't. If he works hard Sanders has the potential to be a good QB but he won't have his father there to hold his hand and run interference every step of the way. People in the NFL work hard and they don't have time to be babysitters.

 

[razpsu]

ESPN and nfl network trying to come up with the blame game why sanders not taken. Basically everyone else’s and not sanders fault. lol. ESPN said it is “disgusting” lol and Rich eisen is outraged!! Can’t make it up.
