The NFL is DEI. It is not a meritocracy. Every draft for the past 25 years has hovered right around 20% White athletes drafted with little deviation either way (I believe the two outliers were around 15% and 26%). The glass ceiling White athletes face is a very real thing. The open discrimination that Whites have to endure in both the college recruiting and NFL draft processes is not some imagined conspiracy theory. I have followed the draft closely since 2004 and after 20 years the patterns are obvious. I have seen countless White athletes get screwed over and never get a chance at the NFL. The number of White kids coming out of high school every year that get ignored is probably 10 times as bad as the NFL draft. Year after year there are a ridiculous number of black players drafted at defensive back, wide receiver, running back, linebacker, defensive line, offensive tackle. And the next year the same cycle repeats itself. Meanwhile White athletes are written off because of their 40 time (the NFL draft process makes no effort to take into account much of the other athletic testing (vertical, 3 cone, bench press, short shuttle, broad jump). If the player is black and fast it's a meal ticket to the NFL. Meanwhile the White athlete that has a much more complete athletic workout but is a tenth of a second slowed in the 40 is written off. The newest trend being pushed is arm length. It's the next big lie behind 40 time to try and push White offensive linemen away from the tackle position. There have been several instances of this I can point to over the past few years - Pete Skoronski, Graham Barton, Grey Zabel, Jonah Monheim all played left tackle in college at a high level but there arms were deemed too short so they get moved to the interior. That is just a small sample off the top of my head. Will Campbell faced the same scrutiny this year about the issues with his arm length despite the fact he was the best blindside protector in the supposed best conference in college football. The cries of racism and collusion against Shedeur Sanders were beyond asinine. These cries were coming from the same group of people who for the past few weeks have been donating to Karmelo Anthony's gofundme, defending his murder of an innocent White teenager and reveling in the grief of Austin Metcalf's mother and brother (Metcalf's father is another story, a truly pathetic man). Many of these complaints I noted on social media were not people that followed football but just typical angry black people with the well established black victimhood mentality. It's all so tiring. The real collusion in this draft was this: Kyle McCord not drafted until the 6th round. McCord was demonized and pushed out of Columbus by the Ohio St fan base despite going 11-1. He goes to Syracuse and leads them to a 10-3 record. He did more for Syracuse than Sanders did for Colorado. Also led the nation in passing and was a better QB than Cam Ward who was gifted the number 1 pick due to skin color. Will Howard transfers to OSU and has a stellar season running Chip Kelly's offense. He wins a national championship. At KSU he was pushed aside much like McCord so he goes and wins a national championship. Riley Leonard takes Notre Dame to the national championship game. A true dual threat that was a better passer than he was allowed to be at ND due to playcalling. Quinn Ewers might be the biggest outrage out of them all considering he won 27 games in the SEC. Won big games in the SEC and guided Texas to back to back playoff appearances. The militant racist blacks and their white hanger on's crying about Sanders won't be able to deny those facts and will just ignore them. Fact is Sanders thought he was better than he is. He refused to take part in the Shrine bowl practices or game, the combine or the big 12 pro day. He really thought he was that good. His arrogant father fed him and hyped him up all these years. Blacks are saying that Sanders did not "code switch" to appeal to the "White" owners. You can't make this stuff up. Millions of black people in this country think like that.
