Little things starting to leak out and circulate around the league.

Essentially he made it known that he was interviewing them not the other way around, to see what team he would pick, not who would pick him. Teams did not appreciate that to say the least.

When Daboll tried to get him to discuss concepts he hadn’t run before on the white board, he essentially said no he wasn’t doing that but he would go over the concepts he has ran and wants to run in the pros.

Daboll said frick this guy. The browns one was allegedly “worse” but no exact details on that one yet.

Yeah

Sounds about right

That must be the one where he told them what he thought about their franchise and I assume it was not nice

this is the most striking thing to me. one thing that has popped up constantly were teams concerns over his ability to run an NFL offense because what he was running at Colorado was so simple.

It’s called FAFO. Sanders thought they were bigger than the NFL and have quickly found out. Unfortunately I don’t think this humbles them and will in fact have them doubling down.

The stories after the draft will be fun to read. Underhill mentioned last night he heard some truly crazy stories.

i really, really want to see what happens today. i'd have to imagine they'd want to go undrafted to "pick" where they want him to go

I’m not sure he is overly concerned about his draft position given his wealth. Obviously it’s a kick to the ego and he’d love to go in the 1st, but I think he knows one team will be willing to buy into his whole thing

There were reports out of Colorados pro day that Prime wouldn’t allow NFL scouts to run through their drills with Shadeur. Prime dictated what drills he would and would not run. Huge red flag.

Given the Giants great offensive proficiency and potency, perhaps Daboll needed help in the offensive concepts department and Sanders had some insights.

Or Sanders said....."find Malik Nabers".....and get me a better offensive line and RB, I 'm tired of getting abused ....plus you're the dumbass that let Saquon Barkley get away."

bullshite. If he wasn’t concerned then why did his dad build that draft day set? And his wealth is probably something that hurt his stock. He obviously feels entitled because of it and is one reason Dillion Gabriel was drafted before him.

Y’all are truly nuts.

Daboll is incredibly well respected as an offensive mind. You can say what you want about him as a HC but the Sanders fans are truly delusional.

Bc he expected to go on the first?

You think that Deion and Shadeur don’t know the consequences of him being himself and not giving PC answers throughout the draft process? They are smart enough to know that behavior would take him off many draft boards

Even if the Sanders’ “pick” where they want to go, a team is not forced to offer a UDFA contract. If you didn't draft him, you don’t want the circus.

Shedeur isn’t capable of this thought, but he should run from Dad and to a grounded Christian QB like Tebow or Kurt Warner to mentor his career. It’s his best shot now.

So he did/does care about his draft position.

Doesn’t equate but I digress

I’m just theorizing

I think it's very possible they did not.

Arrogance is much easier to fit in this scenario than insanity.

That makes a bit of sense. He had to have really pissed some NFL teams off to have Dillon Gabriel, Tyler Shough, and Jalen Milroe all drafted before him.

They clearly didn’t. They thought they were bullet proof and could truly choose what they wanted.

Sanders literally said in March he went into interviews with “a different approach” than teams are used to.

So they clearly thought they could do what they wanted.
