Well, with Sanders showing his eagerness for the pro-league and despite a whole season remaining for the Buffs QB to enter the draft, analysts across the world have started pouring their opinions on it. ESPN’s Field Yates believes Shedeur Sanders and his receiver duo Travis Hunter can be the first and second picks in next year’s draft, with ‘the top 10 being the absolute floor for them’.
The Buffs started this season with a flaring three win record, but their progress suffered a steep decline after it, because of which they ended their season with a 4-8 season. In the 11 games he started, Sanders threw for 3,230 yards, 27 touchdowns and just 3 interceptions. His receiver duo Hunter, who played from both sides of the ball, amassed 57 catches for 721 yards and five touchdowns on offense and 30 total tackles, 5 passes defended and three interceptions on defense.
Well, Sanders and Huter will have this season to set themselves apart from others, thanks to the exceptional recruitment Deion Sanders has made for the upcoming season. However, it will hardly come to them easily, given the competition they will be facing.
