NFC front office team official sees 'Daddy Ball' continuing at the next level for CU's 'Grown' QB
As the 2024 college football season approaches, many people have speculated about where Colorado's Shedeur Sanders might land in the future. One thing that remains crystal clear is Deion Sanders could significantly influence the decision. NFL front office personnel anticipate the Hall-of-Famer will continue to play a pivotal role in his son's career even after Shedeur's tenure with the Buffaloes concludes.
According to ESPN's Jordan Reid, one NFC executive went on the record about "Daddy ball" saying, "Deion has been the kid's coach all of his life. Everyone knows that he's running that show, and that's not going to change moving forward." The involvement of Deion Sanders in Shedeur's career raises questions for NFL teams. An NFC scout noted, "You're not only drafting Shedeur, you're drafting the family as well, and there will be varying opinions about that." This sentiment highlights the potential complexities that come with drafting Shedeur Sanders, as teams must consider the influence and involvement of his father, who is a high-profile figure in football.
Deion Sanders has not been shy about expressing his opinions on his son's future in the NFL. In March, he told Chris Russo of SiriusXM Mad Dog Radio that he had concerns about Caleb Williams, the top pick of 2024, going from Southern California to Chicago. "I don't want my kid going nowhere cold next year," Deion Sanders said. "He grew up in Texas. He played in Jackson, played in Colorado. Season's over before it gets cold in Colorado. I'm just thinking way ahead.
As the Buffs "Grown" QB prepares for a breakout college season behind an improved offensive line in Boulder, his potential as a first-round pick remains strong. If the 22-year-old can avoid more sacks and continue to develop his accuracy and throwing strength, he could solidify his position as a top prospect for the 2025 NFL draft.
