The Sanders family isn\u2019t too happy about Shedeur Sanders free-falling out of the first round<\/a> Thursday during the 2025 NFL Draft.<\/p>\n

When former Eagles running back LeSean McCoy ripped the Giants in a post on X<\/a> that read, \u201cNo wonder the [Giants] DONT WIN SH\u2026.,\u201d right around the time Big Blue traded up to draft Jaxson Dart <\/a>over Sanders, Deion Sanders Jr., the son of the NFL Hall of Famer Deion Sanders, re-shared the message on his own page.<\/p>\n

Sanders Jr., who is Shedeur\u2019s half-brother, also re-shared a tweet<\/a> from Andrew Fillipponi of Pittsburgh\u2019s 93.7 The Fan that quoted ESPN draft analyst Mel Kiper, a noted fan of Colorado\u2019s former quarterback<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cMel Kiper Jr: \u2018Shedeur Sanders will comeback to haunt these organizations that are passing him up,’\u201d the tweet read.<\/p>\n

Sanders, regarded as the most polarizing prospect of this year\u2019s class, was linked to a bevy of quarterback-needy teams, including the Giants.<\/p>\n

Big Blue, which scheduled a private workout with Shedeur last week, first took Penn State edge rusher Abdul Carter at No. 3 overall<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

There was buzz that the Saints (No. 9) and Steelers (No. 21) could select Shedeur, but both went in different directions. <\/p>\n

Despite the disappointment, Shedeur is looking to stay positive<\/a> entering Day 2, with the second and third rounds getting underway Friday.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe all didn\u2019t expect this, of course, but I feel like with God, anything possible, everything possible,\u201d Sanders said in an Instagram video<\/a>. \u201cI don\u2019t feel like this happened for no reason. All this is, is of course fuel to the fire. Under no circumstances \u2014 we all know this shouldn\u2019t have happened \u2014 but we understand we on to bigger and better things.\u201d<\/p>\n

While his dreams weren\u2019t fulfilled just yet, Sanders expects his name to be called soon.<\/p>\n

\u201cTomorrow\u2019s the day,\u201d he said in the social media video. \u201cWe going to be happy regardless. Legendary.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Browns could potentially target Shedeur<\/a> in the second round as they hold two picks, No. 33 and No. 36.<\/p>\n

The latter selection was part of compensation from the Jaguars<\/a>, who traded for Cleveland\u2019s No. 2 slot to grab Shedeur\u2019s former teammate, two-way star Travis Hunter.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Sanders family isn\u2019t too happy about Shedeur Sanders free-falling out of the first round Thursday during the…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":18219,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[2067],"tags":[11,7,519,1775,1917,56,2321,2469,6,15,16,17,9,10,203],"class_list":{"0":"post-18218","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-new-york-giants","8":"tag-deion-sanders","9":"tag-football","10":"tag-giants","11":"tag-lesean-mccoy","12":"tag-new-york","13":"tag-new-york-giants","14":"tag-newyork","15":"tag-newyorkgiants","16":"tag-nfl","17":"tag-nfl-draft","18":"tag-nfl-draft-2025","19":"tag-shedeur-sanders","20":"tag-sports","21":"tag-sports-entertainment","22":"tag-sports-media"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nfl\/114438950463278899","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18218","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=18218"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18218\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/18219"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=18218"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=18218"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=18218"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
