In a scenario that seemed to be announcing in recent weeks, SheDer Sanders has not been selected in the first round of the 2025 NFL Draft.
Sanders was bypassed by a multitude of teams with a certain level of quarter-arre throughout the first round, including Tennessee Titans, Cleveland Browns, New York Giants, Las Vegas Raiders, New Orleans and Pittsburgh Steelers. Interestingly, the giants have done a significant amount of work on Sanders in the pre -project process, then transmitted it twice – first of all overall choice n ° 3, then again after Exchange in the first round and select the quarter-Arrière to Ole Miss Jaxson Dart With the 25th overall choice.

After the end of the Tour, Sanders spoke to the people present on his draft surveillance site in Texas. In a video published on Instagram by his father, deion, He developed the moment as “fuel to fire”.
“We did not all expect of course, but I have the impression with God, anything is possible, anything is possible, and I have the impression that it did not happen without reason,” said Sanders. “All this is of course the fuel for fire. In any case – we all know that it should not have happened, but we understand that we are on bigger and better things. If tomorrow is the day, we will be happy despite everything.”
While Sanders' drafts seemed continuously adjusted in the table when Thursday approached, his fall in the first round came following a series of last -minute controversies this week after NFL Network anonymously cited several league sources that have hammered Sanders With strong criticism of his playing and pre-project interviews. Although anonymous criticisms were not the first in Sanders in this process, the nature of certain comments – notably calling it “titled” and “not very good” as a player – attracted a series of negative reactions inside and outside the circles of the League.

This report has probably not changed anything in terms of Sanders evaluation through the league, but it once again highlighted a roller coaster of pre-Rôti speculation which made him the greatest mystery of the first round on Thursday. At more than one opportunity, Deion accused teams or unanswered individuals of the NFL of spreading lies and negative stories About his son, attracting more drama as part of the evaluation every month that passes. And Shemer himself has constantly described the criticisms of him “hatred” in the process.
Now, with so many quarter -Arrière teams that transmits it in the first round – and other possibilities to trade at the end of Thursday evening selection refusing to do so – this raises the question precisely of the distance that Sanders could finally go. This mystery continues until Friday evening, which presents a second round with several quarter-back teams who are seated at the top of the order.
The most important potential contenders are the Browns, who are looking for a long -term starter to develop and currently hold the first choice in the second round (33rd in total). Cleveland also has the 36th choice, what he Acquired Jacksonville Jaguars In a business that has moved Cleveland from n ° 2 in total in the fifth choice, where he selected Michigan Tackle Defensive Mason Graham.

Sanders has long been considered a natural adjustment for the Cleveland head coach offensive, Kevin Stefanski, who has succeeded for a sustained period with pocket quarters that have a somewhat limited global sports profile or a prototypical construction. The Browns have also done work on Sanders throughout the project process, taking him dinner and meeting him a handful of times, but not Put it through private training.
Beyond Cleveland, Las Vegas Raiders at 37th in the general classification remain a potential landing point, the owner of the Tom Brady minority having been a mentor for Sheder which dates back to high school. If it is not the raiders, the saints could be Sanders' soil in the 40th choice in total – although there is no guarantee that he does not fall even later on Friday, which includes the second and third rounds of the draft.
Long, considered one of the largest stories in this project, the destination of Shedeur Sanders will now also be the conference of the second day.
