The biggest story of the 2025 NFL Draft after Round 1 is a player who didn't even get picked. Colorado quarterback Shedeur Sanders remains on the board, and is a popular choice to be scooped up early Friday evening.
But that's not the outcome Sanders expected. Sanders came into the event as a projected first-round pick on multiple big boards. Even if some analysts ranked him lower, it wouldn't have been a shock to see a team push Sanders up the draft board given his position.
That didn't happen Thursday.
