Baker was definitely humbled. He won the Heisman, and was the 1.1 pick, and he had to beg teams for a chance to start after Cleveland. If the NFL QB situation wasn't so bad, he may not even be a starter now because he may never have gotten an opportunity to prove himself.
I personally think Sanders is comparable to Tua, as they are both accurate with very mid arms, and they are both probably near the bottom in athleticism for an NFL QB.
Herbert hasn't won anything, but if I was a Dolphins fan, I would still be wondering what Herbert to Hill would have looked like.
So, why is that a first round pick? I mean, he wasn't even Geno Smith in college, so why would he be a first round pick?
The ESPN/NFL Network hype machines did everything they could to promote Sanders as the possible first overall pick, but it wasn't because he should have been a first round pick, and more about viewership and clicks, and now social media is ripe with fools claiming it was racial, blah blah blah.
