GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) — Shedeur Sanders is still on the board.
The New York Giants passed on the former Colorado quarterback with the No. 3 pick in the NFL draft Thursday night. So did Las Vegas (at No. 6), the New York Jets (No. 7), New Orleans (No. 9) and Pittsburgh (No. 21), four teams seemingly in need of signal callers.
How far will Sanders fall?
It’s entirely possible he will be available when the second round begins Friday. And no one would be surprised to see a team trade into the bottom end of the first round and grab Sanders.
Concerns about Sanders’ arm strength have become an issue in recent weeks, although his father, Pro Football Hall of Famer Deion Sanders, laughed at that notion. In 50 collegiate games, Shedeur Sanders threw for 14,347 yards, with 134 touchdowns and 27 interceptions. He completed 70.1% of his passes and ran for 17 more scores.
