Giants GM Evaluates Shedeur Sanders as 2025 Draft Prospect

Shedeur Sanders, the standout quarterback from Colorado, is garnering significant attention as a top prospect for the 2025 NFL Draft, particularly from the New York Giants, who hold the third overall pick. Giants general manager Joe Schoen praised Sanders for his football intelligence and personality during an informal meeting at the East-West Shrine Bowl, highlighting his connection to his father, Deion Sanders, a football coaching legend. With a remarkable collegiate season behind him, Sanders finished with 4,134 passing yards, 37 touchdowns, and a completion percentage of 74%, making him a strong contender alongside Miami's Cam Ward for the first quarterback selected in the draft. The Giants are keen to find a franchise quarterback to rejuvenate their team after a disappointing 2024 season, and Sanders's charisma and talent have made him a prime candidate. While it's uncertain if Sanders will still be available when the Giants pick, his impressive performance and accolades, including the Johnny Unitas Golden Arm Award, have solidified his status as a top-tier prospect. Sanders expressed excitement about the Giants' interest, emphasizing the importance of building a relationship with their staff.
