ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- Denver Broncos coach Sean Payton said the teams who have passed over Shedeur Sanders so far in the NFL draft should "beware," because the former Colorado star would use the snub as motivation in a successful NFL career.
Payton was asked Friday night, after the completion of the draft's third round, why Sanders, who set an FBS record for career completion percentage in his two seasons at Colorado (71.8%) as he threw for 4,134 yards and 37 touchdowns this past season, was not among the first 102 selections of the draft.
