The DetriotLions selected Sanders with their 1st-round 3rd overall pick in the 1989 draft. Though there were concerns about his size, it turned out these concerns were mostly unfounded. Sanders was far too quick for defenders to hit solidly on a consistent basis, and too strong to bring down with arm tackles.Though short at 5'8", Sanders was very stocky; his playing weight of 203 lb was the same as walter payton and only slightly under the NFL average for a back.
