Since the draft. But does he even have a
number? Like that seems good question, silly.
I feel like, I think he does. For
example, the Chiefs might end up having the highest
selling rookie jersey, and it's gonna be a 4th
rounder. With Jalen Royals, because if he goes
number 85, which is realistic for a wide receiver
, Royals 85, that's when the Royals won the
World Series was 85. So everyone in Kansas City
is talking about if he gets 85, that's gonna
be, it's like, why did a guy who
had 300 yards win the the uh the highest grossing
rookie jersey uh jersey seller? Couldn't he also go
like 14? It'd be 15, and it'll let
you think why 15 is not gonna work. Someone
else wearing 15. 0, Patrick. Yeah,
probably can't, probably can't use 15. I made
that joke on there. Everyone's like 85 ago,
well, I say 15, just go to Patrick
and say, hey Patrick, sorry, you're gonna
have to switch, pal. Yeah, true.
Uh, so let's, uh, let's, let's
talk Ser Sanders. Um, obviously it, it
has been the talk of everything since the draft,
he fell, I mean, I don't need to
recap what happened, we all know now. He
was projected a 1st round quarterback at best, 2nd
quarterback off the board, top 10 pick, fell
all the way to the 5th round. I think
it's the biggest fall I've ever seen in the NFL
draft. Uh, Sterling, I'll just give you
the floor. I have a little bit of a
, a different take than what I think most people
have, so I'll let you take the floor.
Just give me your thoughts on the whole Sanders.
So I'll start first with the prank call, which
is just horrendous. That drives me insane. Also
, he calls his dad 100K, the Falcons 250K
, um, that's brutal, man. Like that's
just uncalled for. Not only was it just dumb
. You recorded it You posted it And it wasn't
even funny. You're just an ass. Like that
drives me insane. Like I, I don't get
, I'm gonna sound so old, but kids these
days, like I, I, I don't get
that. That's absurd. You're trying to take away
from what is almost gonna be the greatest moment of
this man's life, whether you like the guy or
not, that is dumb, that is atrocious.
I'm glad. I don't wanna say I'm glad he
got fined, cause I almost feel for the dad
in this situation to an extent, but man,
that kid, I'll tell you what, he's gonna
be his dad's phone bill. Uh, no,
I wanna, I, Sanders, the talk going
into it was all second best quarterback, and then
it was all of a sudden going, is he
a 2nd round guy? And he just kept somewhat
falling even prior to the draft. And then you
start seeing these things come out of these clips and
again, everyone has clips, right, but Him
being a me first guy, a look at me
guy. I don't think the talent is necessarily there
for him to be a look at me guy.
I mean, he's even there with his legendary and
all this stuff. He has a, you know
, a whole crew and all this. It it
just everything is over the top. It can't just
be about what happens on the football field, and
part of it is because his dad. It's not
unfortunate, but if his dad was out of the
limelight just a normal guy, I think Shaur gets
drafted earlier. I, I can never, I've
not thought about this too much, but has there
ever been a guy where your dad being a professional
athlete is actually used against you? Normally it's used
as a positive of, well, he knows he's
been around the locker rooms, he gets what it's
like to be a pros pro. He understands all
this stuff, you know, the the the big
lights. Used against him. It's used as a
negative. It's used as he thinks it's gonna be
spoon fed to him. He thinks he's, you
know, he, he deserves this. Um,
I think it's ridiculous, went to the 5th round
. Um, I'm shocked, but I also understand
where if you're saying he's not a starting caliber quarterback
, why would you want him as a backup?
You don't, your backup quarterback is supposed to be
out of the limelight. The backup quarterback is to
is to cause no drama. That's pretty much what
the backup quarterback is in today's NFL. And he's
not gonna do that. I think he's talented enough
to be a backend starter. I do. Uh
, you know, my thoughts. I think he's
got a pretty decent floor, even if the ceiling
is not great. Um, I was shocked,
perplexed by the entire thing. I think there are
some me first tendencies that other teams probably picked up
on, and I do think Dion, his dad
, was used as a negative, which for one
of the first times I can remember, a professional
athlete, um. That you know, your dad
is used as a negative instead of a positive.
