Shedeur Sanders found out the hard way that cockiness doesn't impress Giants, Saints

More info trickling out about how Sanders turned off some teams, including the Saints, during the interview process

Ask the New York Giants, the New Orleans Saints and other teams that interviewed with Sanders.
According to Sports Illustrated insider Albert Breer explains in great detail what was going on behind the scenes. For all the fluff surrounding Sanders, not only as the son of Deion Sanders and his rise from an FCS star to the leader in Boulder, several issues were either under-addressed or unaddressed in the days and weeks leading up to the big show in Green Bay.
"A lot of times in combine meetings, teams will have a player’s worst plays ready for him when he enters the room and, along those lines, one had a particularly rough interception teed up for Sanders in Indianapolis. When asked to explain it, Sanders didn’t take blame. And as they dove deeper into it, and how it might relate to the NFL level, Sanders simply concluded that maybe he and the staff he was talking to might not be a match.
"Ahead of another visit, he got an install with mistakes intentionally planted in it—done to see if a quarterback would catch them. Sanders didn’t catch them. A coach called him on it, and the resulting exchange wasn’t pretty."

I have been told by Stephen A Smith and many others that it is actually racism

On top of that, the interviews and the attitude shown at the combine rubbed several owners the wrong way.
Here's one that I wonder about..
Do draft picks have to meet Gayle and pass her rigorous testing for what makes a good pro football player?

I wouldn't think so, unless it's Jerry Jones. Maybe the owners were getting the reports from their coaches

Normally not.
But I think when picking a franchise QB, owners are likely involved in some capacity

I don't know. Do employees have to meet with company owners and pass their tests? I'm going to reach out to all of my pals who own businesses and tell them that "jmcwhrter" says they need to stay out of it.

I think there was some thinking that he intentionally blew that interview, thinking he would go in the first, but didn't want to go to the Giants. He underestimated how much info gets around about these things.

Rooney and Mara families have always been hands on

See, these are the types of comments that infuriate me. These are amateur hour chauvinistic fricking pitiful comments. Ya'll moan and groan she's not involved and demean her involvement if she is involved.

your latest troll attempts are super weak. can you find a new gimmick, and fast?

Racism I’m not really sure of but it seems to have everything to do with race and how some think people of certain races should be above question.
No matter why the situation.

Please, for the love of God, someone request a Shedeur Sanders' board.

I'd be interested in hearing more about this. How exactly does it work?

If comments about an old woman who has failed upward multiple times in life to the point of being a billionaire infuriate you, you should take a break from the internet(or at least this board) like you’ve done before.

He’s the poster child on how not to conduct yourself and was obviously parented horribly.
Yes, his conduct got around and shitting on any NFL team gives other teams concerns you’ll eventually shite on your employer too.

Yet the current state of both her franchises seemingly doesn’t bother you at all.

I’m convinced Chad is Mickey Loomis.

To be fair. I believe Chad was referring to the hypocrisy of the situation. And not saying Gayle should actually have any say about actual talent.

If you mean by hiring 2 guys in Moore and Dumars no other franchise would touch is huge action so be it.
You guys who are satisfied just being in the pro sports club with 0 expectations are funny.
