The upside for Sanders will be in the RB 1 range on paper but will ultimately depend on how much the Eagles commit to using him. Something else to keep an eye out for is QB Jalen Hurts' ankle injury which could force the Eagles to rely even more on their RB's which could increase the volume for Sanders in a great matchup.
