Rate your level of interest in the NFL Draft this weekend
  • Medium. My interest in how the first round plays out is high, and I'll certainly be checking things out on Saturday, but it won't be a priority for my weekend (41%, 59 Votes)
  • High. First round draft picks? Buffs given serious consideration in later rounds? Oh, and I want to keep on my NFL team and its rivals. I'll be watching closely (34%, 49 Votes)
  • Low. It's important that former Buffs get drafted, but the emphasis should be on the former. I'm more interested in the 2025 CU team at this point. Time to turn the page and get ready for the fall (25%, 35 Votes)

To what do you attribute all of the negative press surrounding Shedeur Sanders leading up to the draft?
  • It's all about Shedeur actually having flaws. Buff fans tend to overlook them, but Shedeur tends to play hero ball, and he rubs way too many people the wrong way to be the face of an NFL franchise (51%, 90 Votes)
  • It's all about deception. With Cam Ward going No. 1, there are few options for teams looking for a first round QB. Teams are playing the reduced expectations game, hoping Shedeur will fall to them (27%, 48 Votes)
  • It's all about the last name and the brashness of the Sanders clan. If a team takes Shedeur high in the first round, and he flames out, it will be a national story no NFL team wants to be a part of (22%, 39 Votes)

Your prediction: Where in the NFL Draft will Shedeur Sanders be taken?
  • In the Top Ten. There has been plenty of talk about Shedeur dropping on draft boards, but don't listen. When the Draft opens on Thursday, Shedeur will hear his name called very early (43%, 83 Votes)
  • In the Top Twenty of the first round. Shedeur may fall out of the Top Ten, but that will be due to teams not having a need for a starting quarterback. I can't see him falling further than No. 20 (29%, 55 Votes)
  • Outside of the Top Twenty, and perhaps not in the first round. Shedeur has a big ego, and teams may be turned off by the off-field noise (28%, 53 Votes)

If you were to get only one four-star graduate Power Four transfer to come to CU in the next month, what position would you take?
  • Offensive line. CU has gone from terrible to bad to mediocre along the offensive line under Coach Prime. One more proven starter might actually move this unit up to "good" (40%, 91 Votes)
  • Linebacker. CU's defensive line is solid, and there is talent in the defensive backfield. The only glaring weakness for Coach Livingston is at linebacker. Get that one good backer and we'll be good (32%, 73 Votes)
  • Running back. CU has a history the last few years of getting good but not great running backs. The current room has talent, but no proven difference maker. CU needs one this season (28%, 64 Votes)

CU adds defensive backs Terrance Love (Auburn) and Teon Parks (Illinois State) over the weekend. Thoughts?
  • We'll have to see how this plays out, but neither player seems to have as much playing time as Buff fans would hope. Added depth is always welcome, but I'm not sure they're more than that (44%, 47 Votes)
  • I'm excited about both pickups. Both have playing experience, and both have three years to play two in Boulder. Coach Prime is not only adding talent, but young talent to the roster (34%, 36 Votes)
  • Recruiting sites can never make up their minds. Love was a four-star recruit at 247 Sports, with three dozen Power Four offers two years ago, but now he's the No. 1174 player in the Portal? (22%, 23 Votes)

  1. Stuart:

    I like the question about SS’s negative coverage. Personally, I think the see-saw coverage is mostly about “stirring the pot” and/or getting clicks. SS is this year’s draft soap opera–a love/hate fest For one negative story there is a more positive one. Some stories are just hit jobs (anonymous NFL assistant/exec), others just cover every minutia of his life. Yesterday, Kiper has him still going early.

    SS is an intriguing draftee warranting discussion, however the extensive overall coverage on every detail for one QB prospect seems over the top. NFL teams have their draft boards, needs, and evaluations and they make decisions based upon that. I’ll be glad when SS and TH are picked today and the focus will be on our team.

  2. The Buffs need to wear the silver and gold that are the official school colors. Black jerseys are OK as the’ve been around for a long time, but out with the black helmets–and the white ones too. Gold helmets with silver pants, alternating with silver helmets and gold pants would be good. Nix on all black and all white!!

  3. Stuart, your polls are so thoughtful and on point. Appreciate you doing this and sharing it with your CUAtTheGame community.

  4. Wouldn’t mind the Cheez-It Bowl at all, as I have connections at Kellogg’s (owns Cheez-it) who could get me tickets!! Is that Cheezy??? 🙂
