Expectations for Shedeur Sanders are slowly dropping, it’s no secret that he was “hit” as many claimed he would be one of the first picks in the NFL Draft.
While some believe Sanders will continue to fall down draft boards, others, including Louis Reddick, a former NFL scout, still see him as one of the first ten picks and a future franchise quarterback.

Reddick has a very strong opinion of Shedeur, whom he rates as an elite “franchise player.
He has no doubt that NFL teams should strive to draft him and devote resources to his development. He believes the team that drafts him should surround him with expert quarterback coaches who are responsible for honing his skills and teaching him everything he needs to be a leader at his position.
A project with Sanders at the helm
Louis Reddick has great faith in creating a project tailored to Shedeur, practically giving him the keys to the franchise. He believes he has what it takes to be the face of an NFL team, clearly the cornerstone as a franchise quarterback.
He even took the time to lay out a “plan” for NFL teams looking to sign him: “You have to recruit him, prepare a solid quarterback room for him to adjust and settle in his first year, and then watch him take off in his second year as the leader he promises to be”.
‘Arrogance’ is the biggest but
Known for his bold and often shocking personality, Deion Sanders justified his arrogance with exceptional talent. He passed these traits on to his children, raising them to be strong individuals full of conviction.
In general, confidence is applauded, but with Shedeur Sanders, the conservatives who run NFL franchises seem to see him as a challenge.
According to some sources, teams tend to be cautious about drafting a quarterback who expresses his thoughts unapologetically, or who demonstrates such confidence that he does not feel the need to speak constantly.
Franchises often have a fixed vision of what a quarterback should be, and when a player does not fit that mold, there is uncertainty about his ability.
We’ll see what his tremendous future holds, but some franchises are already having second thoughts. Of course, once he’s on the field, nothing can be questioned, and surely some NFL team has him on their wish list.
