Draft Scouting Report

Rating: 87.40 (Pro Bowl potential)
Pro Comparison: Geno Smith
Summary

Sanders has a solid frame and stature to become an NFL quarterback. He has been highly efficient throughout his collegiate career completing more than 70% of his pass attempts. His decision-making has been generally good, but waned in the latter half of the 2024 regular season. He is a patient passer with a smooth release, but needs a better feel for when to rip it. Sanders does a good job moving around in the pocket and keeping his eyes downfield when pressured, but is known to hold onto the ball too long.

About
  • 2022 (Jackson State): SWAC Offensive Player of the Year
  • 2024 (Colorado): Big 12 Offensive Player of the Year
  • 2024 (Colorado): Johnny Unitas Golden Arm Award (nation's best upperclassman QB)
Strengths
  • Good accuracy: Through his collegiate career, Sanders has completed 70.1% of his passes for nearly 15,000 yards, 132 touchdowns and 25 interceptions.
  • Surgical from clean pocket: When protected, Sanders will sit back in the pocket and carve opposing defenses.
  • Confidence and calmness in critical moments: As the son of Deion Sanders, pressure has followed the young quarterback, but he has elevated both Jackson State and Colorado to higher levels of competitiveness.
Weaknesses
  • Holds onto the ball too long: Sanders takes too many unnecessary hits late in the down.
  • Drifts in the pocket unnecessarily: There are times when he should step up in the pocket rather than sensing pressure and drifting prematurely.
  • Average athlete: Sanders has average arm strength and is never going to be known as a quarterback capable of rushing for high-volume yardage.
