Shedeur Sanders, quarterback from Colorado, is a prominent 2025 NFL Draft prospect, often projected as a first-round pick and a contender for QB1 in his class. Son of NFL legend Deion Sanders, he showcased elite skills in 2024, completing 74.2% of his passes for 4,134 yards, 37 touchdowns, and 10 interceptions, earning Big 12 Offensive Player of the Year honors. His strengths include pinpoint accuracy, poise under pressure, and exceptional mental processing, honed by a high football IQ. While not a dynamic runner, he’s mobile enough to extend plays. Critics note his tendency to hold the ball too long, leading to sacks (52 in 2024), and question his arm strength compared to peers like Cam Ward. Still, his polished pocket presence and clutch performance make him a high-floor prospect with franchise potential.
