Among the top 10 picks in NFL draftthe New England Patriots, Jacksonville Jaguars, Las Vegas Raiders, New York Jets, New Orleans Saints, and Chicago Bears have head coaching openings. Only the Raiders could really have a shot at selecting a quarterback.
Sheder Sanders is expected to be one of the first players selected in the draft, but it will all depend on what the five teams in front of them do. The Tennessee Titans definitely need a quarterback and will likely select one if they remain at No. 1. The Cleveland Browns need a quarterback but could opt to sign a veteran free agent. The New York Giants also need a quarterback, but they also have a host of other needs that need to be addressed as well.
Shilo Sanders may not be selected in the first round, which could make it easier for Deion Sanders and any team he might coach to select him.
