Just watched Sanders at his Buffalo showcase (pro day to mortals).  He had a dollar sign on the back of his shirt.  I am old school, and that would bother me if I were a GM--he is destined to be a mediocre QB on many boards, so why would you make a team think $$$ is your motivation?  He is already a millionaire.  His dad is a millionaire. We get it, but maybe a football on your shirt would have been more appropriate.  I am sure someone will say "But that is his symbol or trademark."  I don't know that it is, but if so, he chose it.  His towel on the field had a $ too--in college, when most of your team is not making bank.  I just smell entitlement.  Talk me out of it.

Was his shoelaces tied differently? hair crazy looking? Shorts looked funny?? What did you think of those things too?

Welcome to the new sports world, muh fend... Branding. I think Lamar just sued dalejr over something like this. Im too old of soul for much more of it as well. I already left NBA, MLB, nascar, college.. I just had too much invested with the Panthers to leave, but they are the last sport/team I care to follow. Guys on the bench are even "branding" of creating a "community". It's like a fuging onlyfans but for guys.......

 

I can only only hold off the gods soooo long.

not the same thing.  And it is "Were" his shoelaces tied differently?  I did not ask for anyone's approval--never do.  Crazy hair is not about money.  Funny Shorts are not about money-since you asked.  Dollar signs are about money.

Here is what I should have explained because I assumed everyone already understands this:  Somebody is going to reach for Sanders.  Some team, their fans, and their GM are looking for a QB to get them to the next level.  He shows up with Diamond Necklaces, talking about how he is mentally superior to everyone else, wearing a dollar sign shirt--if that is what your looking for, he is your guy. 

On your next job interview, tie your shoelaces differently, make your hair look crazy, and wear funny looking shorts--and a shirt with a huge $ sign on the back.  Good luck.

Sanders has the physical ability to make the plays in the NFL.  I just feel like he's gonna get killed if he takes sacks like he did in college.  You've got to get the ball out in the NFL.  Even if it's just throwing it out of bounds.

Milroe is just way too raw.  I really doubt he has success in the NFL outside of a short run in a meme offense.

Ward will be a turnover machine.

Sanders biggest flaws are his physical limitations. Not a great athlete, not great arm talent.

I think it's all about the system he ends up in and the protection he gets. Could be Drew Brees, could be a poor man's Geno(not as physically gifted as Geno, IMO).

Agreed. I think he is a bigger, far more mentally prepared Bryce to some extent.

I do think he ends up being the best QB of this class but I am unsure that will be more than just a league average starter.

Bryce shits all over Sanders as a prospect

I generally disagree. I think people legimately underestimate the "NFL bubble" that Sanders developed in. 

But, I also said Bryce was the best prospect in his class so that didn't exactly pan out yet.

I agree that he's the best QB in this class. Also agree that he'll be better than Bryce was out the gate. He won't be surprised by the NFL. But Bryce Young was a much better prospect than Sanders. #1 in his high school class and Heisman winner. He's on a different level than Sanders.

Yeah, I am not sure about that. Bryce showed flashes of being the "super processor" I personally thought he was in the home stretch last season but I can't swear his ceiling is appreciably higher. I fuging hope so. fug my evaluation, we just deserve it as a franchise after all this BS we have delt with.

I hope you are correct.

Easy you look at them as prospects. Just because Bryce as struggled for the most part doesn't change the fact that he was a much better prospect coming out 

Yes, but this is in comparison to other QBs that were coming out in that class with him which is looking to be really bad if you remove stroud. It was stated numerous time during the draft process that QB class wasnt that good and they would all rank below future QB classes if they were in other drafts.

      So is Legette getting traded?

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Can't keep pining for what never happened....but for god sakes, DeJean, Frazier... and we got this dude in a R1 trade up.  The most notable blunder of this era, that's for sure.

      That's it. How do you feel about this draft class.

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Overall, fine.  Wish we landed a guy to pair with Lloyd but I presume this means they're giving Trevin one final year to put it together (72nd overall 2 years back).  Flashed potential year 1, had a dud last year.   R1: Freeling LT - Great value and a need; landed our new long term LT that could end up starting off the bat.  Icky had a terrible injury and is not playing in his contract year.  Walker is what he is on a 1-year rental, who even knows how he fits. You get premier OTs early if you can find em' and he has what you want.  I thought he could have gone as high as 6/CLE pre-draft, so am a big fan of the selection.  Looking at this class, he's one of the guys at the top that is like "okay that's the LT".  Others have this right/left or G/T type discussion about them.  Freeling is an LT.   R2: Hunter NT - We didn't really have anyone replacing A'Shawn's snaps in our rotation.  Wharton & Brown aren't 3 downers so adding Hunter to the mix fills a big void. I dug deep into S and LB this draft so was a bit to zeroed in - In recognize the value and impact add in the trenches. R3: Brazzell WR - Intriguing.  Given our history, I don't really want to place any expectations here, but a different style weapon for Bryce. I pretty much expect a WR drafted yearly with this regime. Other notables.. Hecht C - These are the type of rounds where starting centers have been found.  We got a starter for this year, but Hecht seems pretty capable and I like it for a long term find.  SOLID AF.  Wheatley S - A pretty well regarded safety prospect.  And we see it every year (like this one) safeties get hyped, people think they may go sooner than expected, and the league reminds them how it rolls.  Plenty of nice safeties have been found in the 4th-6th in recent years.  Big fan of Wheatley. Can't say I know enough about Lee or the others.
