Just curious what others think of the Sanders ordeal.

Was he drafted too high, too low, or just right? i mean, not to the right team, because we all know that he was.

Also, what do you make of the prank call?

A. I think his college stats and some highlight film I watched show someone who has the game and physical potential to succeed at the pro level.

B. I think that his father did him no favors with his behavior and catering the entire offense to fit his play style. Who knows if he can adapt to someone else's play style?

C. I think that, if true, the rumors of his poor attitude and diva-like personality drove his draft stock WAY the heck down.

D. I think that the media thinking they know better than the NFL professionals about the player potential of anyone is fraught with peril and listening to them is silly.

E. I think the prank call sucked. Life is too short to go out of your way to intentionally cause pain to someone else.

F. I think that he was probably drafted a bit low for the performance he showed in college but that it was modified by the attitude he also allegedly showed.

G. I think that, if he can be healthy with how he channels all the negativity around his draft status, that he could play with a good chip on his shoulder and show all his doubters that they were wrong. However, the general curse that surrounds all thing CLE football will probably not allow that to happen.

A) l I think that Sanders has the talent to be a good, or maybe even a very good starting QB in the NFL.


B) l Whether or not that talent will bring such a career to fruition remains to be seen.


C) l Easy to say, not necessarily easy to do ...... Sanders needs to completely shut out anything that his father has said about him, anything that the media has said about him, anything that the fans have said about him, and go about his business of making the team for the Cleveland Browns (and perhaps becoming their starting QB.)

I was going to say he may be able to use this to motivate himself and personally I hope he does, I hope he proves them all wrong and hopefully a few rare honest media people will do the "I told you so" for him!

I actually was feeling a little sorry for him until I read about him blowing off all of his interview prep and then acting like a total entitled douche when the teams he interviewed w/ called him out on it. He's actually lucky to get drafted when he did.

I do agree the prank call was out of line. Total shit move by the guys who did it.
