Took a team that 4, then 1 game, then won 4 & 9 in the two years Sanders was QB with a bad offensive line and an iffy defense outside of Hunter.
Jackson State won 23 games in 2 years wit him at QB.
There is some other reason he slipped so far.
Lots of QBs with less refined skills went higher than this in recent years. Yes, some were busts, but some are still in the league.
I agree that him skipping throwing at the combine was a poor decision & I read he cane off as a spoiled brat in some interviews.
I still think there is something we don't know.
From talk of Top 10 to 5th round doesn't make sense.
