Former NFL quarterback Boomer Esiason said this week that he spoke with three different personnel people in the NFL that removed Sanders off their draft boards completely because the team owners made it clear they did not want him. "Shedeur Sanders just torpedoed himself," Esiason said.

The 2025 NFL Draft will forever be remembered as the year Colorado quarterback Shedeur Sanders went from projected top pick to fifth-round pick.

In a bombshell that’s rocked both NFL and college football circles, Boomer Esiason dropped a harsh reality check for Colorado Buffaloes fans — and especially for Shedeur Sanders. The former NFL MVP and longtime analyst claimed that multiple NFL owners had told their front offices to completely remove Sanders from draft consideration.
