Will the Cowboys draft Shedeur Sanders? CFB insider reveals NFL scouts' impression of Deion Sanders' son

Shedeur Sanders enters his fourth collegiate season as one of the country's best quarterbacks. The Colorado Buffaloes is garnering interest from some NFL teams, including one of his father, Deion Sanders' former teams, the Dallas Cowboys.

According to Sport DFW, an NFC scout believes the Dallas Cowboys are a wild card for Shedeur in the 2025 Draft.

The scout said:

"With the Dak contract situation happening and struggling to pay their other stars, you better believe that Jerry Jones has it in the back of his mind what the merits of a young and cheap quarterback could be for that franchise if they crash and burn again in the postseason."

He continued:

"Imagine a home-state kid whose father not only played for your team but was a highly successful star, and Shedeur is the type of player that would embrace the star on the side of his helmet."

It won't be a surprise if the owner of the Dallas Cowboys, Jerry Jones, decides to take a chance on the son of one of the greatest cornerbacks in NFL history.

Shedeur Sanders is looking to finish his college career in style

According to ESPN's Matt Miller, Shedeur Sanders is projected to be drafted in the Top 5 of the 2025 NFL Draft. The scout considers Sanders as a prospect with the potential to do a decent job on an NFL roster.

However, Shedeur must put up an elite final collegiate season to shore up his draft stock. He'll get that chance playing for the Colorado Buffaloes as the team's star quarterback.

The former Jackson State Tigers standout had a decent first season with the Buffaloes, putting up 3,230 passing yards, 27 TDs, and three interceptions stat line. He'll be aiming for better now that he's used to the offense and is fresh off some humbling experiences in the 2023 season.

The Buffaloes have been active in the transfer portal, adding the likes of Ethan Boyd, Dayon Hayes, Rayyan Buell, and Preston Hodge to improve their fortunes. We expect Sanders and the program to post a positive record in 2024 and make a Bowl Game in the second year of the Deion Sanders experience.
