SI.com's Breer: An honest discussion about Shedeur Sanders

[Bunsen82]

Errr, ok.  Johnny Football, DeShaun Watson, now this.  Stefanski and Berry looked like they swallowed a glass of vomit.  Haslam had Baker Mayfield and had to let him to go to Tampa to actually find success.  You're not exactly hard-selling this.

Manziel -  1st round 22nd pick
Watson -  3 1st round picks  a 3rd round and a 4th round pick
Mayfield - 1st round - 1st pick
Sanders -5th round - pick 144


Comet - he would have gotten picked by someone else or sign as a UDFA.   Its all about the amount of investment.  Yes Sanders has some flaws,  but he also has some talent.  Yes imperfect QB's need time to learn and overcome some of their flaws.   Unlike Manziel and Mayfield,  there is no expectation for him to start or lead an organization.  He just has to show up to work ready to learn.   If you don't understand the difference in draft capital,  there is really nothing else to say here.  He can easily be cut if he is not putting in the work or being a distraction.

So did Christian Ponder.

“I was so mad, my pride kicked in, and I tried to hit this 235-pound safety as hard as I could. I ended up injuring my shoulder—third-degree AC joint separation. I had surgery, and it ended my season. I just never felt like I threw the football the same.”

It reeks immaturity and a lack of focus.  Will that change?  Odds are no.  If it does, you might have something there.  When the talent isn't the issue,  its the between the ears issue,  you are hoping maturity kicks in and you see a change in behavior.

"The meetings with Shedeur Sanders were chatted about before the draft and while it was going on.. The meetings weren't great and the interactions weren't great" ~

This stuff isn't fiction, its fact. And Sanders isn't denying it. Cleveland had zero business drafting Sanders, they just took Gabriel a few rounds before. This reeks of a Goodell call to Haslam saying do me a solid please....
