is one of the twitchier backs in this group, and that quickness shows up right away. He has no problem making guys miss, and what’s interesting is that while he can slip through arm tackles too, he doesn’t do it the way bigger backs usually do. He’s not just bullying through lazy contact. He’s slippery. He’s the kind of runner who’s hard to line up cleanly in the first place, and even when a defender thinks he has a shot, Sanchez has already shifted just enough to make it awkward for them. That’s why the burst matters so much with him. He led Liberty in rushing this past season with more than 700 yards while also giving them real value in the passing game, and there’s still room for more if his role grows. I would like to see him continue adding size if he’s going to take on a bigger role between the tackles, because that would round out the profile even more, but the third-down value is already very real. He’s got the kind of movement skills that translate naturally into being an extra wideout in empty looks, and he’s good enough at running routes to look like he actually belongs there. Not every back can say that. The agility, the slipperiness, and the ability to create space without much wasted motion make him a really good fit for this list.
