I decided to add Shadour to my team, which set me back 800k CFB 26 Coins, but it was worth every penny. The only issue was I forgot to apply team chemistry to him initially, so his speed was a little lower at first. However, after a quick fix, he was up to 88 speed, and the difference was noticeable immediately. His mobility and arm strength have proven to be major assets, especially when I'm trying to make big throws under pressure.
Gameplay Breakdown
In my games, Shadour demonstrated his versatility and high-level skills. He threw absolute dots on target, and with Travis Hunter still holding it down at corner, the combination of offense and defense was lethal. Despite a few hiccups—like a disconnect and some miscommunication with teammates—Shadour’s performance was rock solid. His ability to deliver accurate passes in critical moments has been a game-changer, and I’m not sure I’ve thrown a single inaccurate pass with him yet.
Shadour’s Strengths:
1.Deep Ball Accuracy: Whether it's a 50-yard bomb or a quick strike, Shadour doesn’t miss. His arm strength combined with his pinpoint accuracy allows him to deliver the ball downfield with ease.
2.Mobility: While he's not as fast as some of the more elusive QBs like Milroe, Shadour’s speed combined with his juke and spin ability allows him to make plays when the pocket breaks down. His 82 trucking also gives him that extra edge when taking on defenders.
3.Clutch Plays: Shadour steps up when it matters most. Whether it's a game-winning drive or responding to a tough loss, this QB can deliver the performance you need.
The Supporting Cast
While Shadour may be the newest card on my team, the rest of the roster is still as strong as ever. I have a solid receiving core and, of course, Travis Hunter—his teammate from Jackson State—who remains a lockdown corner. But Shadour is definitely the star of the show right now. I still plan to test out the Trevor Lawrence card that just dropped, but for now, I can’t imagine many QBs being more effective than Shadour.
Challenges and Hiccups
Every quarterback has their flaws, and Shadour is no different. While he's great at avoiding sacks and making quick reads, there were a few moments where I didn't anticipate the pass rush or threw a bad ball into coverage. However, these were more mistakes on my part than issues with the card itself. In fact, there were several times where Shadour delivered passes that I didn’t think were possible. Despite a few underthrown balls and a fumble here and there, the results were still impressive.
Closing Thoughts
Shadour Sanders is absolutely a top-tier quarterback in CFB 26, and his ability to make both quick decisions and explosive throws under pressure makes him a fantastic choice for any team. While he may not have the sheer speed of some other QBs like Milroe, his accuracy and arm strength more than make up for it. In nine games, Shadour posted 19 touchdowns and 1,400 yards, which is impressive no matter how you look at it. He’s been a huge asset to my team, and I’m excited to see how he continues to perform as the season progresses.
