Coach Prime has said that two of his players, Shedeur Sanders and Travis Hunter, are the two best prospects in the upcoming NFL Draft.

“They’re not a risk,” Deion Sanders said.
Coach Prime made this comment at a recent press conference, which Mike Florio and Chris Simms shared on “NFL on NBC.” The two acknowledged Hunter’s uniqueness as a cornerback and wide receiver.
Hunter is the Colorado Buffalo player who could be going as high as number three after Cam Ward and other players like edge rusher Abdul Carter.
Hunter’s 2023 season included 57 receptions for 721 yards, five touchdowns, three interceptions, and 30 tackles.
In 2024, he had 92 receptions for 1,152 yards, 14 touchdowns, 32 tackles, and four interceptions.
“Travis Hunter is worthy of that,” Chris Simms said. “But I don’t think Shedeur is going one, two, or three, and I’d be surprised by that like I understand what Deion is saying too.”
Simms further shared, “Hey, the complaint might be that he (Shedeur) has no wow trait or wow and physical skills even with the workout (at the NFL combine) you don’t go oh my gosh like you do with Cam Ward on about 50 throws you don’t go H@#$ C@#$ that’s special.”
A recent CBS Sports article by Cody Benjamin noted that the Titans recently canceled Shedeur Sanders’ private workout, leading to speculation that they will not be choosing him first overall.

Many believe that it is Cam Ward that the Titans are taking.
“All I need is an opportunity,” Sanders said. “Simple. Whatever franchise wants to change their franchise, then there’s no doubt who to go with. I’ve done it over and over and over. So you would be a fool not to pick me.”
Sanders is a 6’2″, 215-pound quarterback with 4,134 passing yards, 37 touchdown throws, and eight interceptions at Colorado in 2024. He tied for 20th nationally in QBR at 75.5 and led the Buffaloes to a 9-4 finish.
