"He's the hardest QB I've had to evaluate since I've gotten into TV because 75% of his snaps don't matter. That's the reality for everybody's that evaluating Shedeur Sanders. Half of the snaps that he had at Colorado were thrown inside five yards. It feels like when you watch his tape, every ball is thrown at the line of scrimmage. You're not drafting him in the top five for that so throw that out."

"I mean, he's elite with his field vision. You watch the tape when it comes to that and you think well that looks like Tua Tagovailoa. The examples are, his ability to see things pre and post-snap."

The 2025 NFL draft will be hosted in Green Bay from April 24 to 26.
