    I know a lot of people like to find ways to knock Shedeur based on the supposed cockiness or attitude off the field but he’s truly the real deal IMO. He’s the only QB worth a first round pick at this point with Beck as a fringe late first rounder.

    Shedeur has a great arm, great escapability with the sense to keep his eyes down field, and he’s very accurate. He also has a knack for making big plays.

    I think the off the field stuff is really overblown too. I mean Deion’s raised good kids that don’t get in trouble. They just have a bravado obviously.

    I don't see it with Sanders. He's a very good college QB, but if you want to succeed in the NFL these days without any dual threat ability, you need to be out of this world good, which he's not. If he weren't Deion's son and getting all the attention that goes with it, I don't think he'd be at the top of QB big boards.

    Eh, he’s plenty athletic though. He just doesn’t run the ball.

    So that begs the question - do you need to see a lot of runs in college if you know the player is athletic enough to pickup yards in the NFL?

    I think you need to see something. Stroud didn't run much in college, but he showed that when he wanted to, he could. I'm not convinced Sanders can do it in the NFL.

    Stroud basically didn’t run his entire career until the Georgia CFP game. I actually think Stroud’s a pretty good comparison to Shedeur. Just a bit of a bigger arm for Stroud.

    I like him, I think he'll probably make a faster transition to the pro game than a lot of players. I also think Deion would fight to the limits of his ability to avoid his son being drafted by the Jets. He doesn't want his blood associated with that.

    Want nothing to do with Sanders. He's no Jayden Daniels that's for damn sure.

    The Jets need to hire a proven leader first like Pete Carroll and he'll gut the hell out of this franchise and build it the right way. He'll start with the O and D lines and go from there.

    Next year they finish with worst record in the league under Pete and then they draft Arch Manning to lead us to a decade plus of competitive playoff football.

    The end.

    I wouldn't touch that one with a 10-foot pole. You don't want Deion to run his mouth about the Jets 24/7 and be a constant distraction.

    Tough call... The curse of the JETS, vs bright lights, big city for Sanders?

    Speaking of Stroud, when Carolina traded up to #1, I was sure he was the reason..... Then LOL "There is a team dumber than the JETS!"

    Shadeur looks small to me and it is hard to tell how good he is because I think he really benefits from Travis Hunter who is truly an awesome football player.

    I wont deny his toughness though, Shadeur is one tough football player, has taken a beating at times.


    Travis Hunter is the real gem from Deion's team though

    Hard pass for anyone who plays at Colorado under this terrible coaching regime.

    Travis Hunter is already what I thought Devonta Smith was going to turn into as a pro. And he's already as instinctive a zone corner as almost anyone currently in the NFL. It'll be really dumb if he isn't first overall.

    Would love to find a way to trade for Anthony Richardson without breaking the bank..Baker Mayfield style and give him a chance to learn next year.

    Strange comparison. Richardon’s a big fast athlete and a horribly inaccurate thrower. Baker’s almost the exact opposite.

    Shedeur loves to extend plays on purpose to try some highlight reel stuff and his father knows he aligns get killed with a team like the Jets that can't ever pair a good QB with a great OL. They have proven over and over again that they can't. Shedeur would be a dead man with the Jets.
