Lawrence Taylor won't allow No. 56 to be unretired for Abdul Carter. Abdul Carter accepts that.

Sanders' stats speak for themselves, deserving of being first or second qb taken; attitude problems so serious to torpedo his chances at success - or something under the surface ...

The opening odds start here
Deion is so polarizing, negative, positive, basically a coin flip. I'm sure teams knew his son would be a packaged deal. Off the field antics are almost a guarantee, and teams knew this would be anticipated. Best case scenario he should be fortunate that there are several rounds left, then again he could also go somewhere undrafted, but that looks like the least attractive result. Reputation speaks volumes and beyond.

It's not under the surface it's on the surface. No one wants the drama when there are serious doubts about his ability.

If he was fantastic he'd have gone near the top, and if he was fantastic they wouldn't have had to retire his number at CO in a sad attempt to hype him up.

Best fit would be the rams. Good coach,stafford up in age,warm weather. Dieon didn't want his kid to play in the cold.(pitt and clev)

Jacksonville should take him to reunite with hunter, Trevor is int machine and still has trade value
Hunter will play, at this point Sanders will be a backup at best, have to wait for an injury. he might even be the 3rd QB on a team.

fair game to knock his character; again stats and talent indicate either QB1 or QB2 as all the experts predicted. no football has been played since the ratings came out.

stats approaching those of mahomes, same league ...

possible explanation, calls the Giants, ''take me at 3 or don't take me at all ...''

add to not being interested in a lot of the small city teams, skid is on ...

Sanders invited teams to not pick him if they didn't want him to define their culture around himself. Very simply, he got his wish.

He didn't play top competition and while his stats were good they didn't win. Lots of guys from small conferences have great stats, that alone isn't enough.

Randy Moss and Aaron Rodgers first round skids come to mind, few others; nothing near this level

You’re the Jets with Fields and Taylor, or the Saints who could be without Carr, and you don’t take a shot at Sanders in the 4th round. I mean, not that big a risk at this point.

No Combine, no Senior Bowl.....this is a opportunity for teams to bond with a player.

Sanders passed....now they're passing.

Oh good- now these miserable fucks on tik tok can take down their live feeds bitchin and whining that he hasn’t gotten drafted.

lmao. +1. I don’t even have TikTok and I’m tired of this guy. The artificial intelligence videos of him crying to get drafted were funny. We’re not talking about buying Mom a new house here. This guy’s privileged. Glad it’s done.
