Shedeur Sanders is one of the top quarterback prospects in the 2025 NFL Draft, competing with Miami’s Cam Ward for the top spot. However, with this year’s QB class being considered weaker than usual, it’s unclear where exactly Sanders will land.
A recent report suggests that the New York Giants, who hold the No. 3 overall pick, have been keeping a particularly close eye on Deion Sanders‘ son.

Giants’ heavy interest in Sanders
NFL Network’s Daniel Jeremiah revealed on the “40s and Free Agents” podcast that the Giants had a scouting presence at every single Colorado Buffaloes game in 2024. This level of attention is uncommon and indicates serious interest from the franchise.
“I was told by someone outside the Giants organization but within the league that they had a presence at every single Colorado game this year. They followed Shedeur Sanders all season long,” Jeremiah shared.
Draft implications for the Giants
While this doesn’t guarantee that the Giants will draft Sanders at No. 3 overall, it raises speculation that they might take a chance on him. New York previously made a bold move by selecting Daniel Jones sixth overall in 2019, despite projections placing him much lower. Could history repeat itself?
Some analysts question why Sanders would be a viable option for the Giants at No. 3 but not for the Cleveland Browns at No. 2. The presence of Abdul Carter, a top-tier defensive prospect, could influence Cleveland’s decision, leaving Sanders available for New York.
Where could Sanders land?
It seems unlikely that the Tennessee Titans will take Sanders at No. 1, and if the Browns pass on him at No. 2, the Giants would have a significant decision to make. If New York opts for another player, Sanders could slide outside the top five, given that the Patriots (No. 4) and Jaguars (No. 5) are set at quarterback.
Beyond the top five, the Las Vegas Raiders (No. 6) might consider drafting Sanders as a developmental option behind Geno Smith. The New York Jets (No. 7) and New Orleans Saints (No. 9) could also be in play, depending on how the draft unfolds.
With the draft approaching, all eyes are on New York to see if their season-long scouting of Sanders translates into a high-stakes selection.
