Yeah sorry I just don’t buy it. He was slated to go in the first round for a year. He was the #2 QB on plenty of boards but draft day hits and all of sudden he’s not talented enough. I understand the media hyped him up and they obviously get it wrong sometimes, but I just disagree that he’s a “medium talent”.
He’s plenty comparable to current NFL starters in all his attributes. He can process well and creates plays with his legs. Obviously his arm isn’t a question. If you didn’t think Deion Sanders’ son wasn’t going to have an attitude then that’s on you. But I think teams will regret it.
He botched the pre-draft process as he acted as if he were a guaranteed top 5 pick, but NFL teams didn't agree with draftnik media. Kiper Jr. has pumped this guy up even past the level of his past Jimmy Clausen & Will Levis exploits.
He went to the East West Shrine Game but wouldn't play. Didn't throw at the combine. I heard that he wouldn't even interview with some teams because he believed he wouldn't be on the board at their selection. On top of that, his dad already stated that he wouldn't play for certain teams.
It's said that during an interview with another team he didn't agree with some coaching points to improve. Another report states that he appeared disinterested in the process. Sanders has no one to blame but himself.
I still marvel at how his jersey got retired when far better Colorado players in the past have not.
He has a big name thanks to his dad who has been his coach all his life and teams needing a QB are already in bad shape and probably have coaches that don't want to hear about his dad eventually taking their jobs. Too much of a distraction for most teams.
