That certainly was the case on Thursday night, as Colorado quarterback Shedeur Sanders slipped all the way out of the first round and became a national story. There were two quarterbacks taken on Day 1 of the draft — Miami’s Cam Ward No. 1 overall by the Tennessee Titans, and Ole Miss’ Jaxson Dart at No. 25 by the New York Giants.

Sanders was not in attendance in Green Bay though, instead opting to watch the draft from home in Texas alongside his father Deion Sanders and brother Deion Sanders Jr. The elder Sanders posted a speech from his son after the first round, in which he admitted the proceedings didn't go according to plan but said he wasn't going to be discouraged.
