To Shedeur, or not to Shedeur? (draft)
-
Adam Schefter did too.
Well after all, they did retire his jersey in Colorado. ?
I didn't know the "Rooney Rule" applied to the pro bowl, too......

Great for him! But it's sad. Nobody wants to be bothered with it so they have to go down the list until they find someone who'll go...and he gets to be a pro bowl player. Just do away with the festivities and return the honor of being a pro bowler. Shedeur shouldn't be one.

A great point, shows just how corrupt the NFL seems to be, more and more.

Before today, Patriots QB Drake Maye, Buffalo Bills QB Josh Allen, and Los Angeles Chargers QB Justin Herbert were the three QBs listed on the AFC’s Pro Bowl roster. With Maye going to the Super Bowl, his spot needed to be filled, hence why Sanders had the opportunity to be named to the roster. Still, there was more that led to Sanders being the NFL’s choice:
The AFC’s Pro Bowl QBs were Drake Maye, Josh Allen, and Justin Herbert.
Maye is going to the Super Bowl. The other two are banged up. We’ll see if they stay.
Bo Nix got injured.
Patrick Mahomes is injured.
Daniel Jones is injured.That’s how it trickles down to Shedeur… https://t.co/YdPE9vv4cd

As NFL insider Ari Meirov lays out, Denver Broncos QB Bo Nix, Kansas City Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes, and Indianapolis Colts QB Daniel Jones are all injured. All three of these options could have, and probably would have, been the names the NFL chose from, but instead, this honor went to Sanders."
**************************************************
and now, for that great point:
"Looking at other options the NFL had, even with the three QBs above being injured, it’s hard to argue that Sanders was more deserving. One player in particular who jumps out is Jacksonville Jaguars QB Trevor Lawrence.
His team was 13-4, and Lawrence is a league MVP nominee. Using PFSN’s QB Impact Metric, we can see that he is ranked 16th overall among all QBs this season, while Sanders is ranked 46th.
48 NFL quarterbacks qualified for PFSN’s QB Impact metric in 2025.
Shedeur Sanders ranked 46th, with a 56.9 grade. ? https://t.co/6FfjfekyY0 pic.twitter.com/VsBVvbQlDS"
*****************************************
so, Lawrence is the wrong skin color when the NFL had a chance to be bigoted again? (referring to the way the superbowl halftimes have been going, the political messages on helmets....)

Let's see that point again for emphasis:

Was it DEI when Mac Jones was made pro bowl alternate?
I guess this would imply Huntley was a DEI.
What this tells you is
a) pro bowl is essentially meaningless award
b) the vast majority of people dont know how alternate works at this point. Lawrence was already an alternate, so this means he declined

Don’t let facts get in the way of the regular suspects spouting their nonsense

I have no idea how good Sanders can be long-term, but I'll be interested in seeing how he looks with a full NFL off-season.

I didn't think of that, Lawrence declining. But the pro bowl is worse than a farce, now.

Yeah, that was a joke too. Wasn't that the last actual tackle football game of the pro bowl.
Look, I actually like Sanders...but I don't think that he should've been named to the pro bowl. So whatever the mechanism is that got Sanders the pro bowl title to his name ( whomever wants to go to the pro bowl step forward. And everyone but Sanders takes a step back ) should be trashed....like the whole pro bowl event thingy itself. Just announce the All Pro selections. And then the respective pro bowl squads, AFC & NFC, and that's it. If ya want, the All Pro's get and All Pro ring...and the rest get a Pro Bowl ring. - My 2 cents.

Kiper stopped by ESPN Cleveland to further defend Sanders once again.
He believes Sanders showed everything you’d want in a franchise QB in his rookie year and warned fans not to listen to the doubters.
“The way he competed? The arm strength? In those weather conditions? [Shedeur Sanders] didn’t have an issue there. In terms of mobility and athleticism, he showed that. To me, I don’t know what else you could want. Is he the quarterback of the future? I think he is, the doubters and the haters will be out there saying he’s not,” Kiper said.

If he became an above average starting QB, it would help offset the damage caused by the Watson trade. He'll be very cheap the next three seasons.
But I have a feeling the Browns aren't going to stand pat and just go with Sanders or Watson this season. At the least, they will try and fail to bring in someone to start over them.
