Saints met Shedeur Sanders at Combine (20 Viewers)

[UFCSaint]

Everybody does.

True. I don't think it happens as much as it used to but for a while...it was embarassing

 

[MV2]

I have nothing against him personally, but I was raised in a different era when we treated opponents differently. My NORD coach pulled me from a game and chewed me out for yawning during a game where we were blowing the other team out.

Caleb Williams said a lot of stupid things too, and they didn't age well.

I would have been OK with a Saints player decking Deion after the game. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

Again, your point is emotional for no reason. Punch Deion for taunting? Man everybody in football and the world knows Prime is going to taunt you.

The guy that coached you wasn't an NFL coach because you weren't in the NFL. It's a business and the stars must shine. They get millions from endorsements so he took on the alter ego of Primetime!

It was beautiful to me. A dude that talked the talk and walked the walk. Rings with different teams, 1st Ballot HOF'er and the best to ever play the position. Dude earned the right to strut. He was a dog in coverage. Let's not also forget he was a pretty good baseball player too.

Hate Prime if you want to, but the man performed when it counted the most. Now he's bettering the lives of young men. They're improving on and off the football field. For many, he's a positive example of athletic greatness, overcoming adversity and fighting the fight to stay straight on God's path. He's making a difference in this world. Salute the brotha and let that old stuff go.

Can’t see Deon being in favor of his kid playing for the Saints. He was well known for his dislike of the Saints during his playing days.

Yep. Broke my heart when he turned down more money from the Saints to go play with San Fran. Smart move on his part tho.

Yeah but didn't it give you warm fuzzies when Delhomme threw a TD bomb right over Deion in that Christmas Eve game?

 

[Chuck McGill Esq.]

Sanders is probably a career backup NFL QB. That’s likely going to be a problem for whichever team drafts him. There will be drama if he’s not starting.

Many people don't like his dad and make baseless assumptions that he's an RPO quarterback. As you say, it's all about where he lands. If his last name were Manning, there would be no complaints.

College doesn't have the pressure the NFL does. The QBs that win in the playoffs handle the best pressure. Deion played another position that doesn't require as much critical thinking as the QB position. So many QBs are good regular season QBs that don't materialize in the postseason. One good example besides LJ...Tua.

Yep, I agree. His dad has a bit of an ego, too. He was on NFL Network Total Access and was just a bit too cocky.

 

[WilliamBrees]

If he falls below 8, we're probably not gonna get Jeanty or McMillan.

 

[Tulsa Saint]

Won’t drop past the raiders

A lot of hate for the youngster and "cultural" differences being exposed.
You don't think he can handle the pressure? He's been groomed to be a QB for years by several former NFL QBs.
We'll see how this plays out next year, but I think he's the best overall QB prospect in this draft. Time will tell, though.

What exactly are the "cultural" differences that you think are being exposed?

 

[Tulsa Saint]

No idea and I hope it’s not political.

Sanders is not a perfect prospect(I actually like him but well behind Ward) but it’s strange some have to defend him in any thread when flaws are pointed out or may not like him as much as a prospect.

 

[TruSaint]

Man this sucks for us. We really really want sanders to get drafted before our pick to push a premium player down, if we miss out on Graham, Tet, Jeanty and Warren I will lose it.

 

[Shotgunred]

I don't really want him, but how do you pass on Shadeur if he is there at 9. The Saints would have to take a shot
