A poll of 15 NFL scouts revealed Joe Burrow, Geno Smith and Tyrod Taylor as the most common comparisons for Colorado quarterback Shedeur Sanders, ESPN's Jordan Reid reported.

One AFC North scout compared Sanders to Burrow because of his ability to perform under pressure, according to Reid.

"He's Burrow because they're just never phased in those high-pressure situations and plays with swag," the area scout said, per Reid. "Does [Sanders] have plenty that he needs to clean up? Sure, but that type of calming presence is why Joe came into the AFC and it didn't take him long for him to experience success.
