Quarterbacks Cam Ward and Shedeur Sanders figure to be among the top picks in next month’s NFL draft, though there’s no current consensus that either player will be the No. 1 overall selection.

As the son of Deion Sanders, the term "under-the-radar" will never be associated with Colorado quarterback Shedeur Sanders. His name precedes him, and that pressure has forged a confident quarterback capable of handling himself in game-deciding moments.

NFL draft quarterback prospect Shedeur Sanders opened up about his experience at the scouting combine last month, revealing that he was frequently asked about how he feels about not playing for his legendary father and Colorado head coach Deion Sanders as he makes his transition to the professional level.

Shedeur Sanders, who drew unfavorable reviews at the NFL Scouting Combine, fell out of the top six picks in the latest forecasts of the 2025 NFL Draft's first round.
