I just don't see that from Sanders. When he pops, it's from the pocket.
He loses far more off platform than Mayfield. Mayfield is asset in that regard; Sanders is ordinary. At best.

Pretty sure Baker was a tick or two slower than Mahomes in the 40. In the pocket, Baker has learned to be pretty elusive, and he's always been tough to tackle in small areas, I think mostly because he just won't go down.
but yeah, Baker can throw pretty well on the move; it was definitely one of his biggest assets last season when his tackles were getting hurt every other week and both Evans and Godwin got hurt for that month or so.
If Sanders can't make intermediate throws on the move consistently i'll have to reevaluate my take on Sanders. I thought he could do that to some decent degree.
