I said that Ridley was more polished as a route runner so really no need for the bolded. Sanders measured 5'11, 190, ran a 4.41 and had a 39 inch vert so Sanders was just as good an athlete coming out. Sanders eventually became a better route runner (he was also younger going out).

Not every comp is going to be exact but I think there are a lot of similarities in their scouting report, their size and their athleticism. Talking about 2 inches and maybe 0.05 secs in their dash.

well, 2 inches taller, faster with home run speed, much better route runner, better hands, projected top tier #2 as opposed to a #3 or #4. Not a good comp. With that said, I doubt they take him at 8.
