After the NFL Prospect Sheder Sanders quarterrier was not selected during the first round of the NFL project on Thursday, many criticisms discussed why on social networks.
Former American Democrat representative Jamaal Bowman joined the debate on Friday, suggesting that the reason why Sanders slipped was because “America continues to fear strong black men”. Bowman also compared the 23-year-old quarter-back to the former NFL Eli Manning star, who refused to play for the San Diego loaders after being selected with choice n ° 1 in 2004.
“The NFL does not like [Shedeur]Sanders because he wears gold chains and speaks like a rapper. They do not care that he is a leader, intelligent, hard and completed 77% of his passes without O and without racing game. He was entitled but Eli Manning was not entitled when he refused to be drafted by San Diego? “Wrote Bowman on X.
“It is not athletic, but that did not prevent Joe Montana, Drew Brees or Tom Brady. America continues to fear strong black men who come from means and have a strong feeling of themselves without submitting to” dominant “culture.”

Bowman added in the video that he expects the Cleveland Browns to select Sanders with the first choice of the second round Friday evening.
“This is the way Shemer dresses. This is the way he speaks, and it is his culture, in my opinion. You see him in the draft last night. He wears all black. He put the L chain, and he speaks like a rapper,” said Bowman.
The first player selected in the draft was the former quarter of Miami, Cam Ward, who is also black. In fact, 26 of the 32 players selected in the first round Friday were black men.
The project broadcasts offered regular photos from the interior of the Sanders house in Texas when the family was waiting for the name of Shemer to be called.

The shots showed that the family had installed a shelf with several layers which included a ceiling for all 32 NFL teams. But the 23 -year -old aspiring pro could not put one of them to celebrate Thursday.
At one point during the quarter-Arrière slide, his other brother, the NFL security perspective, Shilo Sanders, insisted that “something happens” with SheDer who was not selected.
“Bro, if they don’t take you at the moment, it’s something going on,” said Shilo. “If they don’t take it at the moment, it’s something going on. I don’t know what’s going on, but that’s something.”

In images published by Deion Jr., Sheder addressed not to be taken in a speech to his family when the first night of the draft was over.
“We did not all expect that, of course, but I have the impression with God, everything that is possible, everything possible. I do not have the impression that it happened for no reason. All this is, of course, fuel for fire. The quarterrier said.
“Tomorrow is the day. We are going to be happy despite everything. Legendary.”
