Sanders has been viewed as either the best or second-best quarterback prospect in comparison to Miami's Cam Ward. And being a quarterback, there's always a good chance he ends up at No. 1.

Deion Sanders, the coach of the Colorado Buffaloes and Shedeur's father, said a year ago on an episode of "Million Dollaz Worth of Game" that both Shedeur and Hunter will be taken in the top four of the draft, with either one of them being the No. 1 pick.

“Top four,” Sanders said when asked where he thinks the two players are going to go (Timestamp: 59:06). “Anywhere from one to four, one of them is gonna be one. One of them is gonna be one, and the latter one would not go behind four.

Before the NCAA football season ended, almost every mock draft had Travis Hunter going No. 1, as he is widely viewed by many as the No. 1 prospect in the draft. Part of his high stock is his versatility, playing on both sides of the field and excelling at both wide receiver and cornerback.

What do you think the Titans will do with the first pick?
