FWIW, I give Deion a lot of crap for being a "Hype Vibe Merchant", but I do admire the way he demands that his players be disciplined, accountable and uphold academic standards. So that does tell me that if Shedeur has the physical talent to work in the NFL, he'll likely be smart, coachable and fully capable/worthy of developing.

Right

I've haven't seen much tape on him either. But some of the knocks on him if he was in the pros are pretty big. Not much escapibility, holds ball to long and takes big sacks, over confident in throws off platform and so on. 

I'd guess he's going to need some time learning to reach NFL starter level, let alone Burrow level.
