The day after the draft, Slavin said he reached out to "half the league" to find out what happened.

"They thought he was a third- or fourth-round pick, but too big of a name to be a clipboard holder," Slavin said. "Which I think is chickens---."

Said one personnel chief, "There's only so many reps to go around for young quarterbacks. You can justify it at other positions, but if you can't get a quarterback the amount of work to develop him, then you're almost wasting a pick."

Was happy to see my boy Dillon Gabriel drafted ahead of both Sanders and Ewers.

He is extremely slow and inaccurate.

This is clearly racism.

He is just not that good

Anyone who has watched college football for 5+ years knows he should have stayed another year.

Doubtful he would have improved his stock with another year and he wasn't going to be the starter at Texas in 2025. And the point was made he can make a lot more money with years of speaking engagements at Texas functions post football career than he would if he decided to take a one year deal at another school. Even though he started at Ohio State, people will always seem him as a successful Texas QB. He could lose that shine if he took NIL and played elsewhere. That goes a long way with the old money guys and he can make a lot of money with speaking engagements as he gets older.

"I'm gonna need a full investigation in to this and demand someone draft my son, umm this QB earlier" Sanders got drafted earlier that Ewers, LOL

Heck of a 7th rounder. Better than who the Saints picked in the 2nd.

Sounds like a case of Shedeur Sanders Syndrome

I guess Texas’ money can’t buy a high draft round.
