The top storyline of the 2025 NFL draft was Shedeur Sanders shockingly falling to the fifth round before the Cleveland Browns finally picked him. Sanders was long expected to be a first-round pick, or maybe a second-round pick at worst. Instead, Sanders fell to Day 3 as rumors circulated that he didn't do well in interviews and left poor impressions on teams.
After the fall in the draft, Tom Brady was one of the people to send Sanders an encouraging text. Brady has been a mentor to Sanders in recent years, taking Sanders to work out in Tampa Bay several years ago and providing valuable advice to the young quarterback.
