Shedeur Sanders keeps falling in the draft, and Stephen A. Smith thinks he knows why. On Friday night, Sanders was not selected by any team in the second and third rounds and will still be on the board in the fourth round on Saturday.
Smith was not happy with Sheuder’s draft fall and believes teams are just hating on his father, Deion Sanders.
“This is a damn disgrace. How in the hell is @Shedeur not off the board, not drafted yet. Y’all still think this doesn’t have anything to do with teams hatin on @DeionSanders. This kid is a first rounder. In a different way, this is Kaepernick all over again…..being kept out. A damn disgrace. I don’t care what anyone says!”
Smith also claims that teams are colluding against Shedeur.
“Someone just texted me this message and they are absolutely correct: “This is a bad look for the NFL. This feels like Kaepernick-level collusion.” All the hard work the NFL League Office puts in to eradicate these kinds of perceptions, only to turn around and watch as the OWNERS look like they’re colluding, messing up everything. What has been done to Shedeur will outshine everything else in this draft. We’ll never believe this is about just talent evaluation again.”
As for Shedeur, he seems to be in high spirits and is leaning on his faith to keep him grounded during his draft fall.
