I have a super unpopular opinion:

I actually think Sanders is going to be a great QB in the league (top 10 QB, if not an MVP candidate one day) and think he’s going to have a 10-year+ career. He’s impressed me with his positive attitude with all the chaos that’s happened and he doesn’t seem to take himself too seriously IMO. If prediction markets would let us buy a stake in a players career he’d be a huge value buy for me, based on how he’s pretty much been buried before playing a snap.

If Vegas actually had a line on future players success in broad strokes, they would hedge a medium because way too much is unknown. Similarly, because of all the drama, the lines would likely be bet pretty evenly success vs failure. User name does not check out.

You keep saying the prognostications already have him doing nothing in the NFL. That's mostly coming from you and not the media or fans at large. The media and general public seems to be pretty evenly split on success vs failure aside from the 2 things almost everyone agrees upon. First, whatever his future holds, if success is a part of it, it won't be in Cleveland. The second is it will be an adjustment for him being coached by someone not named Deion. 

The rest of your jibber doesn't match well with reality. 

Edit - So I'm clear, I watched him play a LOT and I can tell you I'd much rather have Dillion Gabriel playing QB for the Longhorns or Cowboys than Shadeur. Take that to mean whatever you like.

With his attention to detail and understanding of what is important to a professional leader, surely Sanders will shoot right up the depth chart!

 

Sanders didn't take any first-team reps in Wednesday's workout, which was noted by the Cleveland media. That isn't surprising at all. Joe Flacco and Kenny Pickett are the veterans presumably at the top of the depth chart. Fellow rookie Dillon Gabriel was drafted in the third round, two rounds before Sanders. Sanders was the only quarterback to not take first-team reps, according to Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN. 

 

 

Basically he's only practiced against 3rd and 4th stringers and the fan boys run with his performance vs that as he's doing so well in camp but reality is he's not getting any run.

I saw something the other day that showed him making 2 “td” passes. Of course, he was actually sacked on both plays.

As long as he tends to hold the ball, an NFL caliber pass rush is going to be an interesting challenge for him.

Colorado football coach Deion Sanders has been away at his estate in Texas dealing with an unspecified health issue even as CU’s annual slate of summer football camps got underway last week in Boulder.

Sanders appeared at his CU summer camps in 2023 and 2024. Operating them is listed as one of the official duties in his employment contract with CU. His picture also is used by the university to advertise them.

But it’s unclear when Sanders is returning to Boulder. On Sunday, his eldest son Deion Jr. appeared on a YouTube livestream from the family estate in Canyon, Texas, where he said his father was in his room and “feeling well.”

“He’ll tell y’all soon enough what he going through, what he went through,” Deion Jr. said on the livestream.

He suggested that when they return to Boulder was open-ended.

“When we get back in Boulder, I don’t know,” Deion Jr. said June 8. “I’m waiting until my dad leaves. When he leaves, then I’ll go. Until then, I’m gonna sit here with him.”

Sanders, 57, also canceled a scheduled speaking engagement scheduled for June 8 in Florida. He canceled because of an "unavoidable last-minute scheduling change," according to The Foundation for Sickle Cell Research, whose symposium had advertised Sanders as its keynote speaker. The foundation instead replaced him with NBA legend Magic Johnson.

In 2023, issues related to blood clots in Deion Sanders' legs led him to miss a Pac-12 Conference media event in Las Vegas. He has been accompanied in Texas by CU athletic trainer Lauren Askevold, who has helped him with his legs since the issue got serious in 2021, including the amputation of two of his toes and the removal of the sides of his left calf.

Sanders has been out of the media spotlight since the NFL draft in April and suggested it was related to a health issue but didn’t say what exactly. He mentioned it on a podcast with former NFL cornerback Asante Samuel in late May.

“I hope you’re feeling better,” Samuel said to Sanders. Samuel then asked him if he ever tried fasting.

Sanders responded by saying “what I’m dealing with right now is at whole nother level” but said he’s coming back after losing about 14 pounds.

Last week, CU hosted separate camps for high school football players and eligible high school graduates. CU also is scheduled to host a youth football camp this week before a women’s football clinic on Thursday.

The university didn’t immediately respond to a message asking if Sanders would be appearing at this week’s camp activities.

His Buffaloes team opens the season on Aug. 29 at home against Georgia Tech.

Deion's estate is in Canyon, Texas?
