Shedeur Sanders Aims to Be the First Pick in the 2025 NFL Draft

Shedeur Sanders, quarterback for the Colorado Buffaloes and son of the legendary Deion Sanders, has expressed his desire to become the first overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft. Confident in his ability to transform any franchise, the talented player has caught the attention of teams like the Tennessee Titans, who hold the top pick after a difficult 2024 season.

At the East-West Shrine Bowl, Sanders stated that it would be an honor to be selected by the Titans, highlighting the greatness of Tennessee and its fans. "I would love it, I would be very grateful. I know the city and have heard great things about it and the fans, so I know it would be a lot of fun here," he told the team's official website.

The Buffaloes graduate shined in the 2024 season, leading the Big 12 Conference with 4,134 yards and 37 touchdown passes, in addition to being named Offensive Player of the Year. Although he finished eighth in the Heisman Trophy voting, his performance establishes him as one of the most promising figures of his generation.

Sanders also made it clear that his main goal is to positively impact any team that drafts him. “I know I’ll be able to change their program. I’m just a player, but I’ll be grateful for any situation and team,” he stated confidently.

In addition to the Titans, teams such as the Cleveland Browns, New York Giants, Las Vegas Raiders, and New York Jets could also look to strengthen their quarterback position in the upcoming draft.

With his combination of talent, confidence, and leadership, Shedeur Sanders is emerging as a key prospect in the 2025 draft, promising to be a fundamental piece in the future of the NFL.
