TeSlaa feels like a reach.  Gave up a lot and were really only bidding against themselves ad a day two pick.

However, the next time someone asks about a zero star prospect making it to the league, have them Google this guy.

I really like this pick. Before the draft, I didn't think they would take a WR early so this is the guy I was hoping for in round 3-4.

Ultimate dart throw. Will be interesting to see how MLF pieces it all together.

Meanwhile, they REALLY believe their former DL coach was just the biggest dolt, huh?

I feel bad for the kid.

He was mostly just a media creation because of the family name. And then propped up by all the experts who aren't expert enough to be hired by any NFL team.

I always get a kick out of complaints by fans that a team "reached" because a player was picked 20 spots before he was projected to go (by the experts).

When Milroe was taken, I said ok. When Gabriel was selected, then I knew and probably everyone else, knew it was a Dion effect and the rumors of Shaduer being an entitled brat.  The teams do not want a circus drama with Dion hanging over their heads. Dion in last year has mentioned certain NFL teams for his son, what system is best, etc. Let's say he is drafted high and then is second string.  Starting QB falters and then fanbase calls for Shaduer and it doesn't happen.  Dion then can't hold his tongue and it starts with his meddling.  Then the coach falters and the fanbase who likes Shaduer because he was taken high, wants the coach fired and replaced by Dion.  No thank you.

I have no idea of actual scouting reports, arm strength, holds ball too long, but when five QBs are taken, including and especially Gabriel, it is a personal/Dion thing. NFL TV talking heads/analysts know it, but won't dare say it.  Stephen A. will do so, he is un-fireable.

Both Sanders, with the assistance of ESPN, have been overhyped and heck, Colorado going to retire his jersey after going 13-12 over two years. Two months ago, he was going number two to Cleveland in like 80% of mock drafts. Just a strange turn of events. Pittsburgh only team left with a QB void now.

Sidenote, Mel Kiper hardly mentioned Shaduer tonight and at the end, he only said "it's disgusting". After last night and his obsession, the producers probably told him enough.  Greenberg was the obsessed one tonight.

Quick link.  Now the Sander's obsessed ESPN including a quote from an NFL executive from a team wanting a QB.  "Not a football thing" for his fall.

Felt like a BPA pick to me. Love it.

True. They definitely didn't rebuild the interior of the offensive line prior to the draft, right?

TLDR but it's "Deion"

The ESPN highlight reel they showed a few times over the past two days makes Sanders look like he doesn't have big arm strength. So many of the throws they showed were just floated/lobbed/almost-ducky deep balls that were connections for TDs or big gainers because the DBs fell down, got turned around, or were otherwise beaten like a drum. Obviously there's more to a dude's tape than the 10ish throws from a draft day montage, but almost all of the throws they showed looked like they would have been INTs in the NFL.

If he's elite, then it's worth putting up with the circus. If he's not, well...

I think it was the Athletic that compared him to Bridgewater in a recent show. And that makes sense with what you see on film.

The difference? Bridgewater was almost universally beloved as a teammate and a man.

Shedeur probably should do some reflection on the influences in his life.

Why? It's served him well for most of his life.
