Former Rams and Cardinals quarterback Kurt Warner joined Joel Klatt on his show to discuss his concerns about Shedeur Sanders ahead of the NFL Draft.
Warner Says Sanders Gets Uncomfortable Too Quickly.
According to Warner, Sanders does try to create too much offense too soon and does not let his progressions come naturally.
“Did you make the right throw? Did you make the right read, as opposed to stacking it all together? That said, in the last four games, Shedeur was very uneasy in the pocket. Very seldom did I see him strong in the pocket and get back and set and read and deliver the ball. It was almost like he was always uneasy back there.” Warner said.
He also outlined the positive aspects of Sanders’ game.
“I will agree that Shedeur may throw the best ball,” Warner said. “And what I mean by that is the most catchable, the most accurate ball of all of these guys. I love that he can place the ball, but he never, you know, whether it’s because of arm strength or whatever, he never throws it hard. He never has to throw it through you.”
“So, I like that aspect of things. I like guys that understand how to make different throws. He’s got great touch. I think he throws a really good deep ball. All of those things.”
Warner Does Sasys That he Is Not a Draft Guy.
Warner began the interview by saying that he is not a draft guy, does not watch every snap that college quarterbacks take, and says that the process “is such an inexact science that I’m not trying to get into that world.”
