The Colorado Buffaloes have had some pretty decent success this college football season, and a lot of that has come due to the coaching of head coach Deion Sanders and the quarterback play of his son, Shedeur Sanders.
Shedeur has helped lead the Buffaloes to a solid 5-2 record this season, which means the squad is one win away from a bowl game. While the quarterback is at the top of the draft boards due to his really good play, there may be some teams his dad won’t allow him to go to.
Deion Sanders has had his own experience in the NFL, which is most likely why Shedeur will keep his eyes focused on his success right now in college and let his dad do all the thinking regarding NFL teams.
Former quarterback Dan Orlovsky, now a media personality, has also had his own experience in the NFL and has given his two senses on who he believes Deion Sanders won’t allow his son to be drafted by, and the results aren’t that shocking.
There is a 0% chance Deion let’s Shedeur get drafted by Cleveland

Dan Orlovsky Claims Deion Sanders Won’t Allow Shedeur To Be Drafted By Cleveland Or Carolina
Orlovsky, who played for the Detroit Lions, Houston Texans, Indianapolis Colts, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and Los Angeles Rams, claimed that there is a “0% chance Deion let’s Shedeur get drafted by Cleveland.”
He also claimed that “Carolina will not happen either,” and it’s not hard to see why, as Carolina is in complete disarray as a franchise right now after possibly squandering the career of sophomore quarterback Bryce Young.
Cleveland is also known as a quarterback graveyard, as other than Baker Mayfield, who coincidentally also played for the Panthers and floundered in both cities, is now starring with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
As of now, both Sanders are focused on the college game. The Colorado Buffaloes are set to take on the Cincinnati Bearcats at home, and with a win, the Buffaloes will clinch a Bowl game. It would be Deion’s first as a head coach.
