Chris Brockman · Apr 21, 2025

Brockman predicts Shedeur Sanders is drafted late in the first round by a good team that doesn't need him right away and will sit as a backup, and says Ashton Jeanty — whom he calls the second-best player in the draft behind Travis Hunter — goes in the top five.

He gets drafted late first round. By a team that's good, I think.

  • Shedeur Sanders to be 2nd on the depth chart

    I think he's going to be drafted by a team that doesn't immediately need him. I think he's gonna end up sitting

    Best players in the draft. Right? Yeah. Travis Hunter is one. I think this kid is number two.

    Not settled yet. This is graded once the season it describes has finished.
