Deion says he won't let the wrong team draft his son

[TDToomer]

He's previously been on record a not wanting Shadeur going to a cold weather team.

It's colder in Boulder than it is in New Jersey. If anything he is more prepared for cold weather than the QBs at Southern colleges.

Will he sit for a week if they are on the road in Lambeau in late December?

I don't know, why don't you ask him insread of me.  HE's the one who said it.

Well then.....

I just got off the phone with a friend who follows the Raiders.  Supposedly Sanders like the idea of his son being a Raider

[coggs]

Am I the only one who thinks that Deion is going to the Cowboys as Head Coach?

Not b/c he'd succeed, but because Jerry needs a sideshow like that to sell tickets and prop up merch sales.

His team has less young talent than the Giants, and he has built a dysfunctional roster.

Even with Dak, who is looking like a shot QB, Deion and Son will elevate the soap opera with the increase in interest.

No.  1) the tickets are sold regardless.  2) merchandise sales are shared among the league.  Jerry makes the same money on Sanders Jerseys whether he is with the c*wb*ys or dolphins.

One thing we can know for sure is that despite his success as college Coach Prime, he is looking to bask in the reflected glory of his NFL playing days. And why not?

As for his influencing his son's decision as to where he should play in the NFL, I would also suggest, why not? However, I think it may have more to do with the quality of the organization- perhaps also the market- than with the weather which ironically was the case with Eli and Archie.

That said, I won't be unhappy if the Giants are not on the Shadeur/Deion favor list.

Cheers!

He's the flashiest guy and Las Vegas is the flashiest place so it makes sense.

I don't believe that John Mara would allow that pick. The kid has talent but he also has some XXXXXXX in him.

Mara's meddling means more mediocrity.

I suspect that both of what you say may be true, Ed.

Sounds like he'd be OK with Shedeur being a Giant!

Me too, Deion. Me too. 

I agree, Cleveland is definitely not on the list of approved teams IMO.


Like I said in another thread, and if we dont get Shedeur:



IMO this draft class has maybe two guys that could start year one:


Sheddur Sanders
 
Quinn Ewers



But that not bad at all. I would get Mariota, Flacco, Dalton or Taylor. And draft Sanders or Ewers if they can.

If neither guy is available, I would go after Drew Allar, Garrett Nussmeier or Dart and let them sit for a year.

You could be right, as QB is a different animal, but Mara did sign off on Nabers even though he has some XXXXXXX in him as well (including showing up with a crew to an NFL team interview).  These days, I am not even sure I can predict or know what Mara will or will not do or sign off on as the losing season piles up and generations of new Giants fans are lost.

It's not about that.  It's about owning the media narrative and continuing to have the Cowboys front and center. 

Plus, increasingly, the tickets aren't sold regardless.  You can tell by the increasing number of opposing fans who get in.  Home fans don't want to see their team stink up the joint every week.

I'm DYING on this hill.  Mark my words: Coach Deion.  Place a bet and take it to the bank.

Bob, I think it's going to be a lot worse for whoever drafts Sanders.  Its one thing to have an overbearing mother on social media.  Its an entirely other thing to have a HOF player who has experience as a coach and assembling a team with some success to be looking over the shoulder of the FO.  His clout as a player and coach along with his not so quiet persona will very likely be a challenge to any organization that isn't extremely successful with his son on the team. 

uconn: That's true. Add to it the following: some people would be aware enough to know that speaking out at all (let alone in his son's senior year) is likely to hurt his son's draft status (because GM's are likely to be thinking just what you wrote. Dumb, dumb, dumb. Bob
