The 2025 NFL Draft is heading into its third and final day. Cam Ward went first to the Tennessee Titans, as expected. Travis Hunter went second to the … Jacksonville Jaguars in Round 1’s biggest surprise. But the biggest storyline dominating the draft remains the same from when it began: When is Shedeur Sanders going to be taken?
Five quarterbacks were taken in the first three rounds of the 2025 NFL Draft, and Sanders wasn’t among them. There’s still plenty of time for him to go, but it’s been a disappointing slide for a prospect who was considered by many to be the second- or third-best quarterback in the class.
