PLAYSTYLE & SCHEME FIT
Sanders is a polished pocket passer with excellent accuracy, poise, and ball placement. He possesses high-level field vision and anticipation, which allows him to dissect defenses when given time. While his arm strength is solid but not elite, he compensates with precise timing and touch on deep throws. He thrives in a timing-based offense that prioritizes quick decision-making and rhythm passing but needs to improve his pocket movement and ability to mitigate sacks. His NFL bloodlines, leadership, and toughness give him strong franchise QB potential, especially in a West Coast or spread-based system.
CEILING GRADE ANALYSIS
Mid-Level Starter Potential (60-64)
A solid, dependable starter with the potential to exceed expectations. They have good athleticism and tools but may lack elite traits. While they show flashes of high-level play, they also have some notable weaknesses that must be developed. These players often need 2-3 years to establish themselves.
