Colorado quarterback Shedeur Sanders will be one of the most talked about prospects in the 2025 NFL draft class. Led by his father, coach and Pro Football Hall of Famer Deion Sanders, the Buffaloes emerged as a major talking point heading into the 2023 season, and Shedeau was a big part of that frenzy. Expect to carry it through 2024 as his pro projection comes into focus
Sanders starred for FCS Jackson State for two seasons to begin his college career, winning the Jerry Rice Award as the top freshman in the FCS in 2021. He combined for 6,963 passing yards, 70 touchdown passes and 14 interceptions in 2021-22 before following his father. In Colorado. Sanders immediately fit in at the FBS level last season, finishing with 3,230 passing yards, 27 touchdown passes and just three interceptions. But he has been sacked more than any quarterback at the FBS level. That, after Colorado’s rough 4-8 season ending with a 3-0 start, NFL scouts and staff want to see more from the 6-foot-2, 215-pound signal-caller.
So where will Sanders stand in the eyes of the NFL in his senior season? What does he need to work on and where does he fit in with other quarterbacks in the 2025 draft class? ESPN draft analyst Jordan Reed spoke with more than a dozen scouts, coaches and executives about Sanders’ talent, digging into his strengths, concerns, comps and draft projections.
