Sanders is the consensus top quarterback prospect in the draft class of 2025, though some analysts peg Miami’s Cam Ward or LSU’s Garrett Nussmeier higher. Playing under his father, Deion Sanders, as the head coach, Shedeur has led the Buffaloes to an 8-2 record and a chance to qualify for the College Football Playoff.
