Deion Sanders denies viral quote about Shedeur preferring New York
Deion Sanders denies viral quote about Shedeur preferring New York Deion Sanders at the ProMat 2025 'We are hoping for New York' Shedeur wants to be a Giant? — Marshall Green (@MarshallGreen_) March 24, 2025 Deion Sanders, the father of Colorado quarterback Shedeur Sanders, went viral on Tuesday for a quote that he has since denied. While appearing at the 2025 ProMat biennial trade fair and conference in Chicago, Sanders was alleged to have tipped his hand on Shedeur's draft day preference. "THIS IS A LIE! We're thankful for whatever God chooses for them," Sanders wrote in an Instagram reply. Those in attendance at the event were prohibited from filming, which was revealed after Sanders' denial. The original reporter stood behind his source, who quickly made his X account private. Sanders also addressed the situation on X. A lie don't care who tells it. It just tries its best to outrun the Truth. #CoachPrime — COACH PRIME (@DeionSanders) March 25, 2025 Sanders has been very vocal about his willingness to intervene in Shedeur's potential destination, implying repeatedly that there are blacklisted teams atop the 2025 NFL draft. However, the New York Giants have never appeared to be one of those, with Deion even suggesting he knew for a "fact" general manager Joe Schoen would keep the No. 3 overall pick and likely target his son. Shedeur, meanwhile, has developed a strong relationship with the head coach Brian Daboll and the Giants as a whole. With a month until April's draft, most mocks now project Shedeur to the Giants with that No. 3 overall pick. If selected, he would join a quarterback room consisting of Russell Wilson, Jameis Winston, and Tommy DeVito.

Deion Sanders reveals his draft preference for Shedeur: 'We are hoping for New York'
Deion Sanders reveals his draft preference for Shedeur: 'We are hoping for New York' Deion Sanders has been very open about a desire to see his son, Colorado quarterback Shedeur Sanders, land in a team-friendly situation once he arrives in the NFL. Sanders has not ruled out pulling an Eli Manning and essentially preventing Shedeur from playing for a certain team, although he has stopped short of naming his blacklist publicly. On the other hand, he's far less shy about revealing his destination preferences. Speaking at the 2025 ProMat biennial trade fair and conference in Chicago, Sanders openly tipped his hand. This is not the first time Sanders has connected Shedeur to the New York Giants. In December, he claimed to have some insight into the team's draft day thinking and punctuated it as a known "fact." Meanwhile, the Giants reportedly followed Shedeur around the country this past season, scouting him at every single Colorado game. He is also scheduled to have a top-30 visit with the team in East Rutherford. The Giants seem like a logical match for Sanders, especially if they are unable to secure the No. 1 overall pick via trade, but there is some skepticism. Although most mocks have Shedeur landing with the Giants, some people around the league are beginning to think general manager Joe Schoen & Co. will pass on a quarterback with the third overall pick entirely. Deion is obviously hoping for something different.

Deion Sanders wants Giants to draft Shedeur: 'Let's hope it's New York'
Deion Sanders knows which team he wants to draft Shedeur Sanders. The Colorado head coach was asked at the ProMat conference which team he thinks will draft Sanders in the 2025 NFL Draft on Monday. Instead, Sanders shared the team that he's wishing will draft his quarterback son. "Let's hope it's New York," Sanders said, presumably meaning the New York Giants. The Giants are one of the more logical fits for Sanders ahead of April's draft. They hold the No. 3 overall pick and are still searching for a quarterback. While they added Jameis Winston in free agency, the Giants are still in the running for Aaron Rodgers and it's believed that they'll draft a quarterback this spring, FOX Sports' Ralph Vacchiano previously reported. Sanders has also been linked to the Giants for quite some time. Giants general manager Joe Schoen was notably present for multiple Colorado games this past season while the two sides met at the East-West Shrine Bowl in late January. Schoen later complimented Sanders, telling reporters in February that the quarterback is a "great kid" with "a really good personality." "It's a little bit cliché, but he checks all the boxes of a [player with a] dad that is a football coach and the passion that he approaches the game with," Schoen said. "It was good getting to meet him. He's had a really good career at Colorado and obviously looking forward to getting to knowing all those guys in the rest of the process." As the connection between the Giants and Sanders seems obvious, several mock drafts have New York selecting him with the third overall pick. FOX Sports' Joel Klatt is among the group projecting the Giants to select Sanders. "The Sanders-Giants relationship is strong. The Giants flew out to Colorado several times dating back to the fall to scout Sanders and get to know him at a deeper level," Klatt wrote. Not every draft prognosticator thinks that Sanders will end up in the Big Apple, though. FOX Sports' Henry McKenna wondered how far Sanders might fall in the 2025 NFL Draft, sharing a scenario where the Giants could pass on him. "If not Cleveland, will Sanders go No. 3 overall to the Giants? They might match best, but there's the issue of timeline, with Sanders' development track potentially taking more time than coach Brian Daboll can afford (before he gets fired). So New York might not work," McKenna wrote. Of course, Sanders could also be drafted before the Giants are on the clock. The Tennessee Titans and Cleveland Browns, who hold the first two picks in the NFL Draft, respectively, are both in need of quarterbacks, too. The majority of mock drafts have the Titans selecting Cam Ward while some have the Browns nabbing Sanders in that scenario. There's also the off-chance that Sanders meant the New York Jets in his comment on Monday. Unlike their cross-town rivals, the Jets aren't in desperate need of a quarterback as they signed Justin Fields to a two-year deal earlier in March with the plan to start him in 2025. But their longterm future at quarterback is still unsettled. If the Jets want Sanders, they might have to trade up as they hold the seventh pick in the draft. Many questions about the 2025 NFL Draft remain, but if there's one thing that's certain, it's that Sanders wants to end up in the Big Apple. Want great stories delivered right to your inbox?

Modula Introduces Flexibox: A New Automated Solution for High-Speed and Flexible Order Fulfillment
Modula Inc., a leading manufacturer of automated storage and retrieval solutions, officially launches Flexibox, a high-speed, scalable, automated storage solution designed to enhance order fulfillment efficiency and flexibility for businesses across various industries. Franklin, Ohio--(Newsfile Corp. - March 17, 2025) - Modula Inc., a leading manufacturer of automated storage and retrieval solutions, announces the official launch of Modula Flexibox, its latest innovation in automated storage and retrieval systems. Unveiled at ProMat 2025 (March 17-20) in Chicago, IL, Flexibox is now available to businesses looking to potentially enhance order fulfillment operations with high-speed picking and scalable automation. Designed for retail, e-commerce, automotive, and distribution industries, Flexibox enables companies to streamline warehouse operations with no disruption to existing workflows. Image 1 To view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit: How Flexibox Works Built on Vertical Lift Module (VLM) technology, Flexibox is designed for maximum efficiency, featuring a central elevator with a telescopic fork capable of retrieving up to nine bins simultaneously. Integrated with advanced WMS software, Flexibox groups multiple order references within a single tray, minimizing operator wait times and accelerating order fulfillment. When an order is received, Flexibox analyzes all order lines and retrieves the required bins using its central elevator. These bins are placed on a service tray that is delivered directly to the picking bay, allowing operators to complete multiple order lines in a single cycle. While one tray is being processed, the system simultaneously prepares the next one, ensuring an uninterrupted workflow and maintaining a high-speed picking rate. Flexibox offers flexibility with internal and external bay configurations, available in single or dual delivery levels to suit various operational needs. The internal bay optimizes floor space, making it ideal for compact environments, while the external bay maximizes picking speed. A single delivery level ensures ergonomic picking at an optimal height, while the dual delivery level aims to enhance efficiency for high-demand workflows. With Smart Preparation, Flexibox automates order processing during idle periods by pre-arranging trays in advance. Controlled by WMS, the system prepares "ready-to-pick" trays based on incoming orders, reducing waiting times and streamlining workflows. Additionally, Flexibox maximizes vertical storage, reaching heights of up to 65 feet, accommodating hundreds of bins while freeing up valuable floor space. What Sets Flexibox Apart Flexibox has been designed with the aim to meet the growing demand for faster, more efficient order fulfillment while keeping automation accessible to businesses of all sizes. " Flexibox represents a major step forward in high-speed order fulfillment," said David Lind, Sales Director of Modula Inc.

Some of its key potential benefits include: High-Speed Picking – Handles up to 180 bins per hour, aiming to increase throughput and reducing order processing times. Scalable & Flexible – Flexibox allows companies to automate at own pace, without requiring major facility modifications. Optimized Space Utilization – Compact footprint with vertical storage capabilities, maximizing warehouse efficiency. Ergonomic & User-Friendly – Designed for improved operator experience, aiming for ease of use and reducing strain during picking operations. Seamless Integration – Fully compatible with Modula WMS and other warehouse automation systems, including conveyors, AMRs, and AGVs. Modula's Legacy of Innovation The launch of Flexibox is the latest milestone in Modula's ongoing commitment to developing solutions that respond to the evolving needs of modern warehouses. " With Flexibox, we are providing a dynamic solution that addresses modern warehouse challenges," said Orfeo Finocchi, CEO of Modula Inc."
