Sellers has Lamar Jackson-type rushing ability, but is still pretty raw as a passer. Sports analysts frequently compare his ceiling and physical traits to Buffalo's superstar quarterback Josh Allen. His ball security is an area for improvement (14 fumbles in 2024). A team taking Sellers is betting on a solid QB/OC coaching duo. The ID skills are there: Short-range eye manipulation, throwing a guy open, and he's one of the best pure runners / athletes at QB since Josh Allen/Cam Newton. Freaks List. He's larger than linebackers, so he's hard to pull down. Brentnall: "rough around the edges as a passer. The processing and consistency need work. But then he uncorks this. 60+ yards in the air to Nyck Harbor for six. Easy to see why there's excitement about the upside "
