The Colorado Buffaloes held their pro day on Friday afternoon with Shedeur Sanders and Travis Hunter being the big time players teams were focused on. We got to see Sanders do a full throwing session while Hunter ran routes. It was peculiar that Hunter didn't do any cornerback drills.

The Tennessee Titans, Cleveland Browns, and New York Giants sent large contingencies to Boulder to see them workout, as they all have interest in both players while also needing a quarterback.


Deion Sanders says Shedeur Sanders and Travis Hunter should go 1-2

Both players looked good at the Buffaloes pro day and head coach Deion Sanders took some time to speak to the media after the workouts and heaped praise on both players.

"I think we have the most qualified guys in the draft. They're not a risk like Shedeur has been doing it here and here and here and here. Has played college football in this, this, this, this. Travis, ain't nobody like Travis. And so the surest bets in this draft, I'm not a betting man, I'm a godly man. But the surest bets in this draft are those two years, and I didn't stutter when I said that. All right, mic drop. Let's go."


When you look at the NFL Draft, it's relatively simple at the top. Cam Ward seems destined to be a Titan and Hunter primed to go in the top three, but Sanders is the wild card. There are a lot of mixed opinions on where he should go, but mock drafts do consistently have him in the top five.

Deion heaping praise on both players is also no surprise, as Shedeur is his son and he talks about Hunter as one as well. They are both very talented with a lot of potential. Where they will go will become clearer with time.
