2025 NFL Mock Draft: Raiders trade up for Shedeur Sanders, Lions get edge partner for Aidan Hutchinson

2025 NFL Mock Draft: Raiders trade up for Shedeur Sanders, Lions get edge partner for Aidan Hutchinson

Tom Brady and Shedeur Sanders go way back, having established a football relationship since Sanders’ days as a high school quarterback.Β 

And with Brady seemingly very much involved in the decision-making process for the Raiders now that he’s a minority owner, let’s assume the legendary quarterback makes sure his team can draft the Colorado quarterback in April.Β 

Las Vegas has the No. 6 overall pick — so there are no guarantees Sanders is wearing Silver and Black in September. If the Raiders trade up to No. 1 overall, that can, of course, happen.Β 

In this mock, in his first seismic move as part owner, Brady and Co. — whomever they hire as GM — make a deal with the Tennessee Titans and promptly select Sanders to be the club’s next quarterback. It’d fill a need. Sanders is reasonably pro-ready from a full-field read perspective.Β 

And if you hit on the quarterback, no one ever remembers, or cares, what you sent in a draft-day trade to get him.Β 

The draft order below was determined using the current 2025 NFL Draft order.
