NFL Rumors: Shedeur Sanders Didn’t Get ‘Anything Close’ to R1 Grade from Some Scouts
Shedeur Sanders seems confident he will be the top pick of the 2025 NFL Draft, but not all scouts are on the same page.
“I’ve already talked to people within the league who don’t have anything close to a first-round grade on the guy,” Pelissero said about Sanders on Friday’s episode of the Rich Eisen Show.
Pelissero continued: “The idea that he’s just going to walk in and going to be the No. 1 pick, that’s probably pushing it… if I were guessing who comes off the board first, I’d say Shedeur is not the first Colorado player off the board as it stands today.”
The quarterback said ahead of the game that his cleats would reflect where he was going in the upcoming NFL draft.
Pelissero said that while Sanders going No. 1 could still happen, there was “healthy skepticism among people in the league” that one of the bottom finishers would use their top pick on the Colorado signal caller.
Sanders’ case for No. 1 likely wasn’t helped by his performance against BYU, during which he struggled with three sacks in the first half.
