We&rsquo;re talking about guys like Travis Hunter, Mason Graham, Abdul Carter, Cam Ward, Shedeur Sanders and many more. Sanders was projected to be one of the top picks in the NFL draft, but recently his draft stock has been slipping down further and further. Why? It&rsquo;s because many analysts are starting to believe that Sanders did not play the toughest of competition, and they are also starting to question his athleticism and his overall traits for a quarterback.  <\/p><p>The Buffaloes&rsquo; QB was highly accurate when it came to delivering the pass, as in 2023 he had 69.3 percent pass completion rate and 74.0 percent in the 2024 season. However, in his final season playing for the Buffaloes, he was sacked 42 times and that is something that <a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/nfl\/\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>NFL <\/a>scouts and analysts hate to see. While Sanders threw for 4134 passing yards in 2024, along with 37 touchdowns, his dependability is still a looming question going into the NFL draft.<\/p><p>Recently an NFL analyst compared Sanders to Andy Dalton and Kirk Cousins, and as mind blowing as that sounds, he also added that the QB does not have &ldquo;elite traits,&rdquo; to be some of the top picks in the <a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/nfl\/\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>NFL <\/a>draft.
