NFL Rumors: Shedeur Sanders Praised by Insider for Arm Strength Ahead of 2025 Draft
Although the 2025 NFL draft is still far away, Colorado quarterback Shedeur Sanders could cement himself as a high first-round pick with another impressive year as a member of the Buffaloes.
A pro personnel director was specifically impressed with the signal-caller's arm strength ahead of his 2024 campaign, telling NFL insider Jordan Schultz that there's a "shot" that both Sanders and two-way standout Travis Hunter are selected within the first five picks in 2025.
"Shedeur's special man," the personnel director said. "I don't think he gets enough credit for how natural a thrower he is and how strong his arm his."
Sanders wrapped up a tremendous inaugural year at Colorado in 2023, setting a school record with 3,230 passing yards in a single season. He also completed 69.3 percent of his throws, recording 27 touchdowns compared to just four interceptions.
His performance was even more impressive considering the Buffaloes' subpar offensive line, as Sanders was sacked 52 times in just 11 games.
In Monday's way-too-early 2025 first-round mock draft from Bleacher Report's NFL Scouting Department, the 22-year-old was selected with the No. 14 overall pick.
If Sanders is able to improve even further in 2024 and help Colorado surpass the team's previous record of 4-8, he could rise even higher in the 2025 draft.
