Sheur Sanders is still on the board.
New York giants twice passed the former Colorado field marshal, even with No. 3 and No. 25 Select in the NFL draft on Thursday night. Four other field marshal teams necessary for Las Vegas (at number 6), New York Jets (No. 7), New Orleans (No. 9) and Pittsburgh (No. 21), also chose not to select Sanders.
The giants seemed that they could grab Sanders when they changed to the first round, sending three selections to Houston for the 25th general selection, but chose the field marshal of Ole Miss Jaxson Dart on Sanders.
So how far Sanders will fall?
The second round begins on Friday with the Cleveland Browns selecting first, then the Houston Texans and Tennessee Titans, before the Browns choose again with the fourth general selection of the second round. The Titans selected Cam Ward with the general selection number 1 on Thursday and the Texans have a star marshal in CJ Stoud, so Neinder needs Sanders.
If the Browns do not select Sanders with their first choice, another team can exchange points with the Texans or Titans. If the Browns do not select it with their second choice, it could fall against the New Orleans Saints (40º in general), the New York Jets (42º in general) or the RAMS of Los Angeles (46º in general).
The concerns about the strength of the Sanders arm have become a problem in recent weeks, although his father, the member of the Hall of Fame of Professional Soccer and the coach of Colorado Deion Sanders, laughed at that notion. In 50 university games, Shedeur Sanders launched for 14,347 yards, with 134 TouchDowns and 27 interceptions. He completed 70.1% of his passes and ran for 17 more scores.
