Message: [QUOTE="HuskyHawk, post: 5268909, member: 1414"] The real message here is that what is between the ears is the #1 factor for success as a QB in the NFL. That is where teams had a very low grade on Sanders. Nobody worked harder than Brady. There couldn't be a worse comp. Some guys have stellar athletic abilities and arm talent, like Zach Wilson or Trey Lance, so get drafted high hoping they can be coached up. But Sanders is athletically pretty meh. Not very fast. Not very tall. Not a big arm. He's accurate with the ball. Who did I just describe? Mac Jones. But with attitude issues. My overall sense is that teams probably had about a 3rd-4th round grade on him, "capable backup" caliber QB but didn't want to take the chance that he'd come in and act like he should be the starter on day one. You don't need any noise or any distractions from your backup QB. [/QUOTE]
