"Can Shedeur Sanders Sue the NFL for This?": Fans React as HOFer Eric Dickerson Fuels Conspiracy Theory Around Coach Prime's Son's Draft Tank
Eric Dickerson alleges the NFL instructed teams to avoid drafting Shedeur Sanders, aiming to set an example due to concerns about his conduct and financial deals.
- Shedeur, initially expected to be selected in the first round of the 2025 NFL Draft, unexpectedly fell to the fifth round before the Cleveland Browns chose him with the 144th overall pick.
- Eric Dickerson revealed that he heard from an insider the NFL advised teams to avoid selecting Sanders to set a precedent regarding off-field issues, whereas Albert Breer countered this by explaining that most teams simply rated Sanders lower than expected, rejecting the idea of a coordinated effort.
- The Browns traded up to select Sanders after originally not planning to draft him, and the decision was mainly made by Andrew Berry according to Browns owner Jimmy Haslam.
- Sanders has expressed patience and readiness, stating on Thursday, 'Whenever it’s time for me to get out there and play, I’mma play,' while competing for a backup role behind Joe Flacco.
- This draft episode placed a spotlight on the Browns' quarterback room and suggests a complex mix of team evaluations and alleged league interference shaping Sanders’ unusual draft slide.
