For what it's worth, Kiper's recent QB draft rankings;
1. Caleb Williams
2. Drake Maye
3. Shedeur Sanders
4. Jayden Daniel's
5. Bo Nix
6. Carson Beck
7. JJ McCarthy
8. Michael Penix Jr
9. Michael Pratt
10. Spencer Rattler
I don't subscribe to ESPN+. Did Kiper mention if Jordan Travis was omitted due to the injury that he sustained?

Wow, Sanders that high? I guess I need to watch more of him, but the odds of him coming out are really low. I agree with Kiper on Penix tho. Given his injuries, I'd be really surprised if he went in 1st round.
Remember all those QBs who were regularly mocked at the top of the 1st round of their drafts only to go in the 2nd, 3rd or 4th? Fromm, Clausen, Mallett...I think Penix could be that guy this year.
ESPN did a Q&A with Kiper, Matt Miller, and Field Yates regarding draft questions (which is where I pulled Kipers comments on McCarthy). They all have Sanders 3rd, along with many scouts they've talked to, but they do not expect him to declare. He'll likely stay to help save Dad's reputation after Colorado sank this year.
It's in Sanders best interest to declare for the draft. He was pummeled behind that OL this year & Colorado won't be able to fix it with a single recruiting class.
That's the thing with NIL now is that they actually can fix it as long as they pull out the boosters check books. Deion seems confident they'll be much better next year which leads me to believe things are in the works and his son is staying.

I dont recall reading anything about Travis and I would assume the injury impacted him not being on his list.
Walter football just updated their player rankings on the 5th and this is what they had on Travis;
12/5/23: In 2023, Travis completed 64 percent of his passes for 2,755 yards, 20 touchdowns and two interceptions. He used his legs to do some damage on the ground with seven scores. Travis was receiving third-day grades from some teams for the 2024 NFL Draft before suffering a gruesome lower leg injury in Florida State’s penultimate game of the regular season.

Not sure Travis would be in the top 10 even without the injury.

What if I told you you could get your QBOTF AND keep your 1st and 2nd rounder? Because I think you could get Fields for a 3rd or lower. Any takers?

I think the last thing the Bears would want to do is trade him within the division, but if we weren't in position to nab a QB in the draft...Fields would be the kind of young, high upside QB you'd want to take a swing on. I think the jury is still out on Fields.

Yeah I know, but it doesn't have to be a '24 3rd rounder.

Jury might still be out, but the bailiff is walking them to the court room.
For the record, I don't make that deal. I don't believe in Fields. But there is, what, maybe a 35% chance he could blossom with our line, weapons and offense? A 3rd or 4th rounder might be worth a taking that shot.
