"Shedeur is gonna be the No. 1 pick," Deion Sanders boldly stated in a conversation with Adam "Pacman" Jones, leaving little doubt about his confidence in the Colorado Buffaloes quarterback.
As of now, the New York Giants are positioned to claim the top draft pick, per Tankathon. With a dismal season behind them, the Giants are desperate for a franchise quarterback, and Shedeur Sanders is among the most highly regarded prospects, alongside Miami's Cam Ward.
NFL.com, which uses a slightly different metric, also projects the Giants to finish with the No. 1 pick.
Could Shedeur Sanders land with the Giants?
The idea of Shedeur heading to New York raises interesting possibilities. Deion Sanders seems convinced that any team with the top pick, including the Giants, won't hesitate to select his son.
"The Giants are not gonna give up that pick ... I know that for a fact," Deion asserted.
Still, selecting Shedeur might come with added layers of complexity. Deion's high-profile persona, along with his tendency to generate media buzz, could create concerns for a team already under intense scrutiny. Would the Giants, or any team, welcome the potential distractions that might come with drafting Shedeur and being tied to "Prime Time"?
Before anything becomes official, the NFL landscape still has many variables to address. Will the Giants ultimately secure the first pick? If so, will they choose Shedeur as their quarterback of the future? Equally important, who will be leading the Giants organization as head coach and general manager when draft decisions are made?
Deion Sanders' unwavering belief in Shedeur's abilities has already set the stage for heated debate and speculation. As the 2025 draft approaches, Shedeur Sanders is undoubtedly one of the most compelling names to watch in football.
