Analyst: There’s ‘legitimate NFL talent’ at Colorado in 2023

Colorado football has “legitimate NFL talent” with the likes of 2022’s No. 1 overall recruit Travis Hunter, Deion Sanders’ son Shedeur, and talent across all five Power Five conferences having transferred to Boulder following the Buffaloes’ hiring of Coach Prime. 247Sports’ Chris Hummer classified the incoming group as potential “transfer portal boons.”

“There is legitimate NFL talent at Colorado thanks to some transfer portal boons,” Hummer prefaced before saying, “The Buffaloes have an above average quarterback (Shedeur Sanders), deep skill rooms and one of the better cornerback duos in the country. They also have Sean Lewis as offensive coordinator, and his system provides a high floor as we saw annually at Kent State.
