Shedeur Sanders' slide might soon reach free fall. The Browns didn't take him at Nos. 33 or 36.
The Raiders didn't take him at No. 37. And at No.
40, the Saints chose a different quarterback, Louisville's Tyler Shough. Sanders could go anywhere at this point. The Steelers have been linked to him, but as of the Saints pick, Pittsburgh's next selection is No.
83, well into the third round. Could Sanders really fall that far? At this point, it seems like anything is possible. SN's NFL DRAFT HQ: Live tracker | Pick-by-pick grades | Best players still available The Saints chose a 25-year old QB who started his college career in 2018 over Sanders.
It's just getting a bit bizarre. Maybe there's a Deion Sanders issue. Maybe there's truly doubt in Sanders' QB ability.
But whatever the question, the reality stinks for Shedeur. He just wants to start his professional journey. And he's being asked to wait longer than he ever could've imagined.
