Carson Beck vs. Shedeur Sanders and Travis Hunter

Looking at the dozens of early 2025 mock drafts, one thing is clear: Shedeur Sanders and Travis Hunter are highly likely to be a top 10 pick in the draft. However, the one CFB player who is an ultimate threat to their high overall ranking is Carson Beck. All the mock drafts that project Shedeur Sanders as a top 5, also have Carson Beck in the same circle.

Take ESPN’s Matt Miller’s mock draft, for example. In it, Beck has swept the position of QB1 in the 2025 NFL draft from Shedeur Sanders along with the overall No.1 pick. Whereas Sanders had to settle with QB2 and overall draft pick No.2 with the Raiders. Amid these two, Travis Hunter got awarded the 9th overall pick as a first-rounder, with the likelihood of him landing with the Cardinals.

Hence, along with connecting more with their fans through such live streams, Hunter and Sanders would need to focus and perform their best this season to get that upper hand against Beck. They would need to give the scouting heads a good taste of their talent, ensuring that they both get drafted as the top players.
