Shedeur Sanders is the son of Deion Sanders, and the starting quarterback for the Colorado Buffaloes. Overall, Shedeur was a sensation last season thanks to his play during the first four games of the year. However, as the season went on, it became apparent that the Buffaloes simply did not have the pieces to compete. Moreover, fans fell out of favor with Deion and his public comments about the other teams in the Pac-12. It was becoming too much, especially since the team's results were not worthy of around-the-clock coverage.
Now, the Buffaloes are set to begin a new season and the expectations are elevated, especially with how much Deion has been hyping up his team. Additionally, it is a big season for Shedeur who is looking to show NFL scouts that he is a top-tier prospect for the league. In fact, in a new NFL Mock Draft, Shedeur Sanders was projected as the first overall pick, where he would be going to the New York Giants. In second is his teammate Travis Hunter, who plays offense and defense. This Mock Draft has him going to the New England Patriots.
