"Sanders was selected by Cleveland in the fifth round of April's draft. He completed a class-best 74% of his passes and avoided INTs (1.43%) in his two seasons at Colorado (24 starts), though it's worth noting he was conservative (7.4 aDOT is third lowest in this class) and took a ton of sacks (8.64% rate, second highest). He adds a bit with his legs (117-687-8 line during his time at Colorado), which will help his fantasy stock if he moves ahead of Joe Flacco, Kenny Pickett and third-round rookie Dillon Gabriel and takes over Cleveland's starting gig. Sanders is worth drafting only in dynasty and superflex."


"Even though Dillon Gabriel cleared concussion protocol Monday, Sanders will get the nod against San Francisco after he helped guide the Browns to a 24-10 win over the Raiders on Sunday. Sanders completed 11 of 20 passes (55 percent) for 209 yards, one touchdown and one interception against Las Vegas, showing some deep-ball touch on a 52-yard shot to Isaiah Bond down to the two-yard line in the process. Sanders' matchup against the Niners will be favorable on paper, as San Francisco is dealing with a boat load of injuries on the defensive side of the ball, but it's fair to question if Sanders has enough of a floor-ceiling combo to warrant consideration for fantasy lineups."
