6. It is really hard to make it to the NFL

A lot of quarterbacks work very hard and never threaten to make it. Sheduer Sanders even being able to complete a pass against NFL defenses puts him into a rare category of humans though I understand the standard he is being compared to and admit it was a bad game for him.

The Ravens I think got off to a slow start due to a hard schedule but I still think they are a top 10 team in the NFL. I'm jealous of their GM as I think they consistently get good players and players that I'd draft. I thought Lamar Jackson was more impressive in college than Josh Rosen but the Cardinals drafted Rosen with a top 15 pick while Lamar Jackson was the last pick in the first round of the same draft and a lot of GMs thought Jackson should play wide receiver or running back so I don't put much stock in how GMs rate QBs on draft day. I also would have drafted Charles Woodson or Randy Moss instead of Andre Wadsworth in the 1998 draft but I'm not the Cardinals GM.

As far as Sanders Colorado is doing a lot worse without him or Travis Hunter even though they have a better offensive line. They did get the Liberty QB and a 5 star dual threat QB out of high school but Colorado isn't as good yet.
