If you ask fans, Shedeur Sanders is the only quarterback that the Las Vegas Raiders would want to settle for. Ahead of the 2025 NFL Draft, the Colorado quarterback is among the most exciting prospects. With a record of 2-7 and currently sitting with the No. 5 pick, the Raiders desperately need a franchise quarterback.
Raiders fans eagerly hope that Shedeur will be the answer, and day by day, other NFL fans are more convinced than ever that Deion Sanders’ son is bringing his talents to Vegas.
NFL Fans Went Gaga Over Shedeur Sanders’ Latest Remark About Raiders
The Raiders’ quarterback situation has been shaky, to say the least. Losses have been piling up for the Las Vegas team, with no signs of a consistent offensive leader. One step in the right direction by the Raiders’ front office is parting ways with offensive coordinator Luke Getsy and bringing in veteran advisor Norv Turner.
The franchise’s struggles present the perfect opportunity to start fresh with a signal-caller like Sanders. He boasts a 73.3% completion rate and an 82.3 QBR from the pocket. The Colorado QB has the stats to back up his hype, and fans believe he’s the spark the team needs. Sanders was spotted giving autographs on football cleats when he said, “Shout out, Raiders.” One fan expressed their excitement, saying, “We’re ready for him.”

“Bro makes it so obvious he wanna go there😭,” wrote another.
One more fan wrote: “Tom Brady will make it happen.”
Another tweeted, “I have seen enough Sheduar [Shedeur] Sanders is a Raider.”
“The writing is on the wall,” one more said.
“I’m finally gonna have a franchise Qb in my lifetime 😭🙏🏾 shedeur is a raider shedeur to bowers is gonna feed generations,” one more fan wrote.
One Raiders faithful said, “Bro wants to be a raider and he needs to be a raider!”
Shedeur’s father, Pro Football Hall of Famer Deion Sanders, also added fuel to the fire, hinting that he wants to ensure his son lands in an organization capable of supporting his talents and pushing them forward. Given the Raiders’ current state, Deion might be concerned about whether they meet these criteria.
There’s a twist that fans find promising. Brady’s presence in the front office could assure Deion that Shedeur will have the mentorship and guidance essential for a young quarterback.
However, if the Raiders are serious about courting Sanders, there’s still work to be done. A coaching overhaul might be necessary, especially if head coach Antonio Pierce doesn’t last the season. The Raiders’ upcoming games and offseason moves will be crucial in making this vision a reality.
