There's a lot of old white media guys taking this personally. They think it's it the NFL old boys network shutting out someone based on frivolity, and/or want to be patted on the head by Deion and/or made to look stupid for their pre draft predictions.

I have no problem with Deion of his style over the past years but Sanders moving further down will make whatever team takes him, even more of a circus given all this faux outrage.

He’s an average prospect with a lot of baggage. I’m not surprised.

I still think Raiders should have taken him with one of those two picks, worth a flyer at this point

There's gonna be a cottage industry in the next few days with stories and anecdotes about how badly he interviewed and other issues.

Pretty sure Sanders is going to be an Argo this year.

in terms of quality, he should have probably been a Day 2 pick. But I wouldn't even pick him on Day 3 just because of the circus attached. It was bad before the draft, but his freefall would probably make it even worse now. As a Steelers fan, I'd rather take a punt on Kyle McCord or Will Howard today.

Speaking of the Steelers, I would have been fine with Jalen Milroe at 83, but given they had 9 RBs in for a pre-draft visit, I'm not surprised they went that route instead. Think Kaleb Johnson is a great fit too, as more of a north-south runner he should complement Jaylen Warren and Kenneth Gainwell well. Good value too, I saw him mocked in the 2nd round consistently. Pretty happy with how this draft has gone so far, although I really hoped they'd find a way to trade George Pickens and add another Day 2 pick. Oh well.

Not in love with that Shough pick (outside of sticking it to Deion/Shadeur), I just don't think this is the year to take a QB (outside of Ward). I like the idea of taking chances on QBs until you get your guy, but the team has too many holes everywhere to burn the #40 pick on a 26 year old, oft-injured one. But I'll happily eat my words on that in a couple years.

Pretty cool moment as Barryn Sorrell gets picked by the Packers after sitting in the green room for 3 days waiting

Some scouts had Kaleb Joh son ahead of Hampton as the #2RB in this class

Yeah not sure who takes Sanders now.
First question from the ravenous press to his new team's GM will be why didn't you take him earlier?
Next question will be why did he fall so far?
How was his interview? Other teams said that he didn't seem to be interested in them in the interview process, why were you different?
Are you worried about him being a backup given all this and this fall?

And then there would be the whole other set of questions that would've been asked if he was picked anytime in the first round, around Deion, etc etc.

It's just too much of a sideshow that teams don't want.

No idea how he would and they'd have to take his jersey down but he'd make as much money at Colorado next year if he could go back, as the 4 year contract he'd sign at this stage.

At this point it does feel like it's gotta be a Chiefs, Ravens, Bills, Eagles, someone with an unquestioned starter that, even if Shedeur and his family are obscenely delusional, are not even that delusional to think they can start #### to try and get those starters gone. Anyone with even a slight question at QB likely wants nothing to do with the possible circus.

The story on ESPN tries to paint it as a "maybe it's ok?" story but Abdul Carter asking LT if he can have his number is wild. The balls on that kid
