The biggest story of the 2025 NFL Draft was definitely the fall of Shedeur Sanders. The Colorado quarterback fell all the way to the fifth round. One of the most surprising parts of that fall is that the Las Vegas Raiders passed on him SEVEN different times before he finally got selected by the Cleveland Browns with the 144th overall pick.

Shedeur Sanders falling to the fifth round of the 2025 NFL Draft sparked significant scrutiny and discussion. He was projected to be a first-round pick, or at the very least, a second-round selection. However, as the draft progressed, Sanders' name was absent from the list of picks.

Sanders was rated as the No. 23 overall player and the No. 2 quarterback in the class by Bleacher Report's NFL Scouting Department. His slide out of Days 1 and 2 was the story of the draft as he fell to the fifth round and was the sixth quarterback taken at No. 144 overall.
