Maxx Crosby had an uplifting message for some prospects ahead of Day 3 of the 2025 NFL draft. The Las Vegas Raiders' defensive end recalled his draft day, when he was taken in the fourth round, and appeared to suggest that what matters more is how players perform in the big league.
"It’s Not About Where You Get Drafted… It’s About What You Do When You Get There. #Day3," Crosby tweeted on Saturday.

Some fans suggested that the Raiders star was hinting at Shedeur Sanders, who went undrafted in the opening two days.

"A clue about Shedeur today," one tweeted.
"NOW LETS GET SHEDEUR," a user added.
"Tell em stop playing and get Shedeur," a third commented.
A few also appeared to agree with Crosby's tweet.
"And we are very lucky!" one wrote.
"The Truth’ never give up, stay focused, and be great,'" another added.
"Amen young man, listen to the pro kids. All you need is to get into the show, from there it is up to you," a user tweeted.
A total of 257 prospects will be drafted this year. Of that, 102 players were taken off the board in the opening three rounds.
Day 3 of the NFL draft will feature Rounds 4 through 7. Some believe that Sanders is one of the best quarterbacks remaining in this year's draft and were surprised that he wasn't taken earlier.
