One of the craziest parts of the 2025 draft was talked-about quarterback Shedeur Sanders of the Colorado Buffaloes not getting drafted until the last day of the draft. In the months leading up to the draft, Sanders was expected to be among the first quarterbacks to hear his name called, and multiple teams expressed major interest in the high-performing signal-caller. But, that didn’t happen, and at the end, onlookers were left wondering if he actually wouldn’t even be drafted until Sanders finally heard his name called.
Sanders got drafted by the Cleveland Browns as a fifth-round pick. It was a little nerve-wracking watching the event transpire, because it was just hard not to feel sorry for this guy who kept hearing everyone’s name except his own called.
Well, just because the Browns have Sanders that doesn’t mean they’ll keep him. The NFL is a wild world, and the Detroit Lions are in need of a more solid quarterback room. It’s not totally crazy, although definitely a stretch, to say that they could strike a deal with the Browns to bring Sanders to the Motor City.
