Colorado Buffaloes football head coach Deion Sanders promised to do his part to ensure his son, Shedeur, lands with the right team at April’s 2025 NFL Draft.
Deion Sanders’ Buffaloes are off to a scorching 7-2 start, and they’re ranked No. 17 in the nation heading into Saturday’s home game against the Utah Utes. Shedeur has delivered another excellent campaign behind center, tossing 2,882 yards and 24 touchdowns against just six interceptions
Shedeur is a candidate to go first overall in the 2025 NFL Draft. The QB-heavy class also features Georgia’s Carson Beck, Alabama’s Jalen Milroe, Miami’s Cameron Ward and Texas’ Quinn Ewers.
So, what happens if Deion Sanders isn’t happy with his son’s landing spot in the pros? During his appearance on FOX’s “Speak” program, ‘Prime Time’ promised to step in and address the matter.
“Yeah, yeah, but I’m not gonna do it publicly (step in). I do it privately,” Sanders aid. “Cows come home.”

It’s awfully hard to project Shedeur Sanders’ landing spot, because 11 teams enter this week with records of 3-6 or worse. The race for the first overall pick is wide-open, and it would go to the Jacksonville Jaguars if the season ended today. With Trevor Lawrence and his $275 million contract occupying the starting QB job, Shedeur obviously wouldn’t be a fit there.
Only Shedeur and Deion Sanders know deep down which team they’d like the standout quarterback to play for. But at this time, the focus is on finishing the regular season strong.
Deion Sanders Might Not Have Much Say In Where Shedeur Lands
It’s understandable that Sanders wants his son to be put in the best place to succeed. For example, going to a quarterback graveyard franchise like the Cleveland Browns would likely spark great concern for the Sanders family.
But Deion might not have as much pull in this as he says. Even if Shedeur threatens to demand a trade from the team who drafts him, there’s no guarantee that they’ll actually do so.
