A former New York Giants coach had some good issues to say about quarterback Shedeur Sanders, however many Giants followers aren’t going to love the comparability he made.

Former Giants coach Pat Shurmur has labored with Sanders as Colorado’s offensive coordinator. He stated he sees some similarities between Sanders and former Giants quarterback Daniel Jones, who Shurmur coached in 2019.

“I feel they’re very comparable prospects, from a participant and an individual,” Shurmur instructed Paul Schwartz of The New York Publish. “I feel they’re each great human beings, they’re each extremely completed, proficient school gamers which have an opportunity to make an affect within the NFL, so there’s quite a lot of similarities between Daniel Jones and Shedeur Sanders.”

Shurmur meant this as a praise, however Giants followers in all probability is not going to take it as such. Whereas Jones had some preliminary success with New York, his second contract turned out to be a catastrophe and the staff unceremoniously dumped him this previous season. If the Giants are contemplating taking Sanders at No. 3 total, they’ll need a way more profitable profession than that.

Sanders continues to divide opinion amongst NFL evaluators. The Giants chosen Jones at No. 6 in 2019, so it could be an identical funding to pick Sanders.

The Giants have yet one more exercise with Sanders earlier than the draft, however current rumors recommend they could be stepping into a distinct route at this level. Giants followers would in all probability want that if Sanders is simply the second coming of Jones. Some NFL groups might not even assume he can obtain that.
