Some folk on here think this like playing Franchise in Madden. Just draft the guy you like first round and they think it’s automatic playoffs/Super Bowl.

Thats not reality. It’s so many things that go into drafting a guy first…so much tape and scrutiny. It’s not “hate” to point out Shedeur’s weaknesses. The NFL isn’t hating on him by not drafting him in the first round…cats on here thought that bc he was decent in college with some cool highlights and flashy play and because he had Deions genes/blood running thru him that it was a lock for first round.

If you look closer at his game, you’ll see why most on here who watched him saw a LOT of flaws and warts. It’s easy to play off one of the best players to ever play CFB (Hunter) but when the sole focus is YOU they watch even more intently…he’ll be drafted, and maybe he’s able to learn something from this, but those of us who watched buddy aren’t surprised at what happened with him last night. I think HE got surprised tho…now that he’s out of the comfort of having Daddy always there, coaching, let’s see how things start to line up for him. This is uncharted territory for both father and son…

He's not going yo the Chiefs or Eagles. That would be a shocker and a waste.

So he's a 2nd rnd lock at this point.



Ive said it before. Mahommes has 2-3 good years left before he becomes a worst Russel Wilson. So the Chiefs should strongly consider the option. At worst maybe the competetion helps make Mahommes better since he is a competitor:respect:


I think the bottom line here is Shadeur played himself,or better yet his daddy did. First they said they would pull an Eli if a certain teams picked him. Which ruled out a lot of teams who wouldnt want to take that risk. And its clear Shaduer wouldnt stay anywhere out of loyalty to a team that drafts him.

Then his pops says if Shaduer isnt playing well. He would step in to give advice:mjlol:. No coach or gm wants to deal with taking calls from Deon. I dont know if Shaduer is the player to make these type of diva demands for. NFL may be trying to send a message. They dont want Nfl turning to the NBA where players have too much power. Theyd be fools not to draft him at all based on pedigree though.

Pros:
Accurate
Processing Speed (Even with being slow and having an objectively bad O-Line, still managed to play well)

Cons:
Mid arm
Suspect footwork
Slow/Poor outside of the pocket
Average anticipation

Unknowns:
Ability vs competition


Funnily enough, I thought he looked much better first year in Colorado than he does now :manny:

All three of them were Heisman 🏆 winners.

The narrative was already set in stone for them that nothing, barring anything serious, could've impacted their draft positions.

It would've been a crime that they were drafted outside the top 5 let alone the first round. NFL teams are not passing up on Heisman trophy winners, no matter what, unless it's something serious.

Being a Heisman winner somewhat guarantees a first-round pick. The notion of Sheduer being “mid” doesn't bold well either because every year plenty of mid players have gotten chosen in the first round throughout the NFL draft in previous off-seasons.

The landscape for every draft is different. A lot of teams already had their QB.

GM's are also moving towards (and have been for some time) mobile QB's with elite physical tools. If they are taking a "mid" QB, it would be someone like an Anthony Richardson that has a cannon arm and is a tank, not a QB that doesn't have any elite physical traits. I'm not saying Sanders is awful, but it always boggled my mind how people thought he was worth a first overall pick or a top five pick.

1- Caleb Williams ? :what:

2- The hilarious irony is Shaduer and cam just so happen to be bffs and we see videos of them together and…Cam is the cocky one!

But watch this…

3- So why does it seem people fw Cam. And fw an Anthony Edwards. It’s bc all ‘cocky’ ain’t the same. People fw blue collar mentality and people they can relate to. Shaduer is like a James Prince Jr. People have fw him bc of his dad and everything they doin, but he’s no Anthony Edwards. I watch those vids of him with Cam and :patrice: He always seem like he whining and trying to lil bro Cam. So it’s hilarious people acting like it’s a white people thing…And thats all before you get to the fact he isn’t that good

What differentiates Shedeur from other “cocky” black athletes is that he grew up a rich kid. Being rich his entire life makes him not really relatable and perhaps misunderstood.

I can definitely see Prime’s kids, specifically his second set (shedeur, shilo, and the lil girl) rubbing people the wrong way.

I said Dart was getting drafted by Giants in one of these threads.

Dude didn’t participate in combine or senior bowl. Matter of fact he aint even accept a reese bowl invite. Did that after that abysmal BYU performance.

You can’t buck the process, when you ain’t got your father athleticism. Prime was advising Sheduer like Sheduer was Prime Time.

Its more prevalent in Shilo.

But those are Pilar's kids as well.

Deion had easy confidence/swagger. It makes it more inviting. Pilar got that level of extra that can be tiresome. Shedeur needs to know when to reign in that side of that family.

Huh? He can't choose to go anywhere unless he gets undrafted, we got 6 more rounds to go
As much shyt as is being talked about the guy that's exactly what it sounds like they want to happen. All the talk about how he's not good at this and he is flawed in that. So now what disingenuous mufukka fine start around and start singing his praises as a second founder and look fake as fukk? So the slide has to continue our the games being played well be confirmed. Nobody gonna pop all that shyt and then change their tune and lose face.....I rather see the kid go undrafted and go where he wants.

Shilo is completely unlikeable.

As rich as prime is, what makes him relatable is that he had an upbringing many can relate to

This is uncharted territory for both father and son…


Facts

It's a reason Deion took the Colorado job. He wanted Shedeur to have Power 5 tape and be a top 5 pick

Facts.

Thing is as fans we often look at players who were beasts in college and swear they will be a top pick. Then NFL front offices start picking them apart and using the smallest flaws to say this is why shouldn't be picked here or there.

So you take a player like Shadeur, where even a casual fan can watch him play and say "whoa, this dude needs to work on this and that" and you think NFL scouts will overlook all that and still spend a top pick on him?

Few players can overcome obvious flaws and still be a high pick. Shadeur ain't Tim Teebow.
