Saints met Shedeur Sanders at Combine [SBPP sources: Saints didn’t Pro Day—Top-30/ did a media bluff to not make interest obvious]
Word?
First time hearing this.
Underhill said the Saints like Sanders, but they like him more in the 2nd round or possibly in the late first.
Personally, I think #9 is too high for him, but I would like him late in the first or in the second. But, I think a lot of people just immediately say no on him because they don't like Deion and hold that against him. I don't like Deion either and it probably made me think of him as a mid-round pick for a long time. But, when you objectively look at him play and look at his high completion percentage and great TD/Int ratio, I think he's a good 2nd round QB. If he was a little taller, had a better arm, or was a bit faster, he would probably be a first round guy. But, he's not.
That being said, if Moore likes him at #9, I'd support the pick. As Elvis said, at some point we have to start taking chances on young QBs higher in the draft.
