Cowboys considered two QBs in draft

[rambo2]

Would you trade Mingo for Sanders? I would

I wouldn't want Sanders period.

 

[rambo2]

We passed on him because we already traded for Milton.

At 76? He went at 144.

Baker was not cocky in the interviews though. Baker did not fail the tests that coaches threw at him.
Baker was 5x the qb in college that Shedeur was.
Did you see that a coach sent Shedeur a 20 page install package 1 week prior to their meeting, the coach purposely put in many mistakes, Shedeur caught zero of them.

What’s the double standard?

Some people just wanted to draft a street baller. Enough said

 

[Mikexike]

Different sport, but LaMelo Ball (3rd pick) and Lonzo Ball (2nd pick) definitely did not see their stock drop because of their obnoxious father.

Shedeur did this to himself.

He sure did, they said he treated the interview process as a recruiting effort. Apparently he thought it was still college…

Attitude should not need to be coached, especially for a QB. A QB with Deion's mentality -cocky/arrogant attitude, most likely turned a lot of people off.

If we drafted him you would be his biggest supporter. Jerry screwed the pooch on this one. The draft process may have actually humbled him

A 4th round pick for Sanders was great value

I agree Milton will never be an NFL caliber QB. He wasn’t that good in college but he didn’t play at OM.

Yup.

Dude played 6 seasons of NCAA.

Starter for his last year.

Can’t throw.


Draft Bio is a train wreck.

He would have been pushing Dak for his job.

 

[Creeper]

Show tapes to back up your criticism of Shedeur. I can easily show tape where I feel he was worthy of being taken in the first 2 rounds.

Here, I will give you a little piece to show Shedeur does have an NFL worthy arm...



Now show us your proof that Shedeur doesn't have an NFL arm...???

I never criticized his arm. But having an arm is just one aspect of being a successful QB in the NFL.

 

[DallasEast]

At 76? He went at 144.

76? Dallas stood pat and passed on Shedeur Sanders at 12, 44 and 76. Similarly, every other NFL team did the same with their first, second, third and fourth round picks before Cleveland committed to him at 144th overall.

All front offices even bamboozled the people they contracted for providing content for NFL.com. Just a few of the mock drafts (link) posted prior to the draft on the league's official site:

• Sanders to the Steelers at 21 / Daniel Jeremiah 'media analyst' (link)
• Sanders to the Giants (3) or Saints (9) or Pittsburgh / Charles Davis, another media analyst (link)
• Sanders to Pittsburgh / Bucky Brooks, NFL.com analyst (link)
• Sanders to New Orleans / Eric Edholm, 'lead Draft writer' (link)

Even NFL.com graded Sanders with the second highest quarterback grade: 6.30 to Cameron Ward's 6.39 (link). Their scale states a grade between 6.30-6.39 'will eventually be plus starter'. For what it is worth, the site graded Tyler Booker (6.38), Donovan Ezeiruaku (6.40)* and Shavon Revel Jr. (6.34) all above Sanders at their respective positions.

* 6.40-6.49 'Will become good starter within two years'

Lol

I would have been sick.

His attitude may have worked as a DB or a WR, that is not going to work as QB.

 

[JW82]

He screams of a Johnny Manziel type for me, too much about himself, the arrogance, the bling, put on a pedestal, the cash and not willing to put in the real work to be an NFL quarterback...

He's a much better kid than Manziel. But Johnny had a big arm. sanders does not.

That’s sad but true and I didn’t want Sanders here.
