The Federalist: Blaming Sanders' Late Draft Selection On 'Racism' Is Dumb
The selection of Shedeur Sanders in the NFL draft has sparked outrage among some sports commentators who claim his fifth-round pick is indicative of racism, despite the league being predominantly composed of black athletes. Critics like Skip Bayless and Stephen A. Smith argue that Sanders' late selection reflects racial bias against him and his father, coach Deion Sanders.
However, the notion that Sanders’ draft position is racially motivated is challenged by the fact that many black players were selected before him, and his performance metrics did not support a first-round pick status. Reports of his unprofessional conduct during interviews further complicate the narrative, suggesting that factors beyond race contributed to his draft outcome.
