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.

    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
    • Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.      
    • I think people aren’t patient enough with Young. It can take a few years for a QB to develop. Look at Darnold, Baker and most recently Daniel Jones.   he hasn’t been able to put up big passing numbers either cause of how much we run the ball. You can tell our coaching staff still hasn’t took the training wheels off Bryce and let him go all out. We’ve had some pretty bad receivers as well. We finally got a true number one last year and look how much Bryce improved. Still we didn’t really have any depth behind TMac. Coker was hurt for a lot of the year and XL was our #2. How many big plays or TDs has XL dropped? I think this year can be the year we see Bryce able to hit his stride. If not then we can start looking for another qb but I just ask people to be patient.
