Yeah you don’t know how the draft and building teams works. Getting Sanders in rd 5 was good value. Whether he pans out to be a first rd caliber player remains to be seen. Even IF you think he had a first rd grade? Throwing away a 3rd drafting the same position is moronic. That’s another talent you could have had at another position to help the overall team. Regardless of Sanders if a first rd talent or not.

It’s still not a bad draft if you get a first round talent in the fifth. If they whiff a 3rd it’s minute compared to the value they got at that fifth round.

Why did you wait til rd 5 to take a player with first round value? Browns passed on him in rd 1. Then passed him on twice in rd 2. Passed on him twice in rd 3 (took a QB with one of those picks). Passed on him in rd 4. Then traded up in rd 5 to take him. Explain…

[quote]George Pickens is departing from the black and gold to provide Dak Prescott with an outstanding complementary target next to CeeDee Lamb.
The Pittsburgh Steelers are trading Pickens to the Dallas Cowboys in a deal that should be official soon, NFL Network Insiders Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero reported, per sources informed of the deal.
Dallas will receive Pickens and a 2027 sixth-round pick, while Pittsburgh will get a 2026 third-round selection and a 2027 fifth-rounder, Rapoport added.
Much in need of a No. 2 target beside Lamb, the Cowboys rode through free agency and the 2025 NFL Draft without bringing in a bona fide second wide receiver. Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said the train had not "left the station" in terms of adding reinforcements if called upon.
Dallas called, and Pittsburgh answered by sending the three-year pro to the Cowboys in a splashy move that will no doubt get the hype train going full speed into the upcoming season.
Following the acquisition of DK Metcalf from the Seattle Seahawks, it seemed feasible that Pittsburgh could move Pickens -- like Metcalf, a big-play receiver who specializes in contested catches. That's come to fruition. It's a move that completes a massive offensive overhaul for the Steelers, who have now parted ways with their leading wide receiver from 2024, their leading rusher (Najee Harris; signed with Los Angeles Chargers) and their leading passer (Russell Wilson; signed with New York Giants).
Pickens moves to his second NFL team while entering the final year of his rookie contract, due just $3.65 million in what will be a massive prove-it season.

Apparently the footage from the Sanders and Giants meeting is so bad that the Browns and Sanders have threatened legal action against the Giants if it's released. :lol
Re: 2025 NFL Draft - (April 24th)
Derek Carr retires. The 25 soon to be 26yr old TJ Slough gets the starting job. Roffles
Saints even have a “ha, see I told you” moment or this will be a facepalm pick

So arrogant. So entitled. Ugh let the chaos begin…
Re: 2025 NFL Draft - (April 24th)
Sanders compares himself to Tom Brady "My story is going to be similar." :roll:

Re: 2025 NFL Draft - (April 24th)
Brady and Sanders spoke recently, the Browns quarterback told reporters on Saturday. Sanders shared how similar their stories are thus far and how Brady seems to be helping him to not focus on the draft results. Having someone like Brady in his corner will surely be helpful for Sanders as he begins his NFL career
[I]“I was a late round draft pick, but we’re here now and none of that stuff matters, it just mattered on the day. I’m just excited to be here and ready to work[/I]”
Sheesh the entitled little brat. Too worried about branding. He’s already being a distraction with his comments. Smh
Re: 2025 NFL Draft - (April 24th)
I don't know how Sanders will work out for the Browns. They are one of if not the worse franchise in the league in terms of developing drafted quarterbacks, but I think him falling in the draft is the best thing that could've happened to him in terms of being successful in the NFL. It can put a chip on his shoulder, give him motivation to prove people wrong and put in the work to earn his place.

Right becuase if he was drafted in the 2nd rd we would be seeing a different Sanders. The real version. One that’s entitled, selfish, throws teammates under the bus, only cares about his brand, thinks he’s better than he is etc etc etc
This version is the 5th rd version. Wonder what the undrafted one would have looked like? Hmm
