Shedeur Sanders $100 Million Conspiracy Exposed
Shedeur Sanders $100 Million Conspiracy Exposed
The 2025 NFL Draft created unexpected drama when Shedeur Sanders, son of football legend Deion Sanders and widely considered the second-best quarterback prospect, experienced a shocking slide.
Initially projected as a top-10 pick with some analysts even suggesting he could go as high as third overall to the New York Giants, Sanders unexpectedly fell to the fifth round where the Cleveland Browns finally selected him with the 144th overall pick.
This dramatic fall has sparked controversy beyond typical draft discussions. A Colorado Buffaloes fan has filed a $100 million lawsuit against the NFL, claiming “severe emotional distress and trauma” from watching the high-profile player’s draft slide.
The 55-year-old plaintiff, identified only as “John Doe” in court documents, alleges an “illegal conspiracy” among NFL owners prevented Sanders, despite his phenomenal genes and demonstrated greatness during his college career, from being selected according to his projected draft value.
“That is the function of the lawsuit. We should get access to all the teams that he’s talked to, every team that he’s interviewed [with] so we can dispel the notions that he tanked his interviews and things of that nature,” he told the Daily Mail.
‘We should be able to get all the scouts that visited Colorado and their notes to prove that he had a high draft grade. And then we will have to prove… how did he go from one draft grade to being taken off the board.
Just mounting frustration from the anxiety that I experienced, some of the trauma, the disappointment and frustration that I was feeling when I’d seen that Shedeur didn’t get drafted at his projected draft spot.
Just to realize that a person was feeling that vulnerable and he couldn’t fight back and then I was just frustrated to the point where I’m like: ”Well if he’s not allowed to fight back, I guess I’ll go ahead and file my lawsuit against them because of the trauma that it caused me.”
Shedeur Sanders’ NFL Draft Journey Continues
Despite the surprising slide in the 2025 NFL Draft, Shedeur Sanders‘ professional football journey is far from determined. History has shown us that draft position doesn’t dictate career success for quarterbacks. The NFL landscape is filled with legendary quarterbacks who weren’t highly valued during their draft process.
Many elite quarterbacks emerged from humble draft beginnings:
- Tom Brady: 6th round selection
- Joe Montana: 3rd round pick
- Kurt Warner: Went completely undrafted
- Roger Staubach: Selected in the 10th round
The true measure of Sanders’ potential will come through his dedication to mastering NFL playbooks and refining his technical skills. His college performance demonstrated his talent, but the transition to professional football requires significant adjustment.
NFL teams’ evaluations during the combine and draft process don’t always predict a quarterback’s ultimate career trajectory. Sanders now has the opportunity to prove his abilities on the field rather than in scouting reports.
