The group of NFL teams believe Deion Sanders' son is the top QB, but outside of the top ten best players in 2025
The excitement surrounding the Colorado Buffaloes might have dimmed following a 4-8 record in Coach Prime's debut season, but Shedeur Sanders could ensure that NFL scouts continue to come to Boulder. Sanders is positioned as the top prospect for the 2025 class, despite challenges from Georgia's Carson Beck and Texas' Quinn Ewers. The 6-foot-2, 215-pound quarterback impressed in his first season with the Buffaloes, completing 69.
Despite all of this weighing into his overall performance, Sanders has been graded as a second-round pick by NFL teams, according to the BLESTO scouting report obtained by BuffsBeat. The annual review of pro prospects has Sanders graded at 1.25, which puts him in the middle of the second round. There are ten prospects above CU's "Grown" QB, but he's still the top passer in the 2025 NFL Draft class.
There were two other Buffs to fall within the drafted category. Travis Hunter received a first-round grade of 1.1, which was second-best overall behind Missouri's Luther Burden III.Sanders' tenure at Jackson State and Colorado reveals a high IQ and processing ability, making him a cerebral playmaker from the pocket. Despite the varying levels of competition, his initial success in the SWAC as a freshman demonstrated maturity and a game well beyond his years.
However, Sanders' footwork and fundamentals need refinement. His relaxed approach didn't hinder him against weaker opponents but could become a liability against stronger competition at the Power Five level. At Jackson State, his superior talent masked his technical flaws, but these inconsistencies could be exposed at a higher level, if not addressed before the 2024 season. Not to mention, he was sacked 52 times due to a lackluster offensive line.
