- NCAA. NFC team closely monitoring Shedeur Sanders ahead of NFL Draft
It appears that Deion Sanders's wish is on the verge of being granted. With one month until the 2025 NFL Draft, bettors and analysts are increasingly in agreement, clarifying the outlook for potential draftees. According to the latest odds, Shedeur's most likely destination is Coach Prime's preferred city: New York.
Most experts predict that the former Colorado Buffaloes star will be among the top five picks in the draft. Some even believe he could be in the top three.
Bettors, for their part, are wagering that the young Sanders' name will be called with the third overall pick, as reflected in the most recent odds from the specialized betting platform DraftKings.com.
Who will select Shedeur Sanders in the draft?
With a +105 moneyline, Sanders offers the best odds to be the third overall pick in the draft. This means that a $100 bet would yield $205 if successful. If Sanders is not selected third, his former Colorado teammate Travis Hunter has the next best odds at +235. Abdul Carter follows at +275.
For the first pick, the odds favor the former Miami Hurricanes star Cam Ward with odds of -1100. This implies a $1,100 bet would return $1,200 if won. Carter's odds are +600, Hunter's are +1800, and Sanders' are +3500.
The Giants hold the third pick in the draft
It's important to that the New York Giants hold the third pick in the draft. This suggests that, barring any trades, Shedeur's most probable destination would be the Big Apple. This coincides with recent reports that his father, Deion Sanders, desires his son to play in New York.
Rumors suggest that Coach Prime expressed his hope that Shedeur would be chosen "by New York" in a casual conversation during the 2025 ProMat. While these rumors have not been confirmed, if substantiated, it would signify a victory for the Sanders family.
