Leinart could be a top ten but you have him as a top 3. That's probably a little too much of a jump. Remember he is playing in his 3rd offense in three years and he was up and down last year. Plus Arizona has a suspect line as well.
The guy I would look to have a breakout year is JP Loosman. I would have him rated way above Schaub. He really came on at the end of last year.

I think talk of JP Losman having a good season last year is quite overrated. He held the ball too long and had little success completing passes. I don't think theres anyway he sniffs last years production.
It's impossible for me to predict who will have the biggest role in their offense. That's why I rank the players based on the assumption that they will all throw an equal amount of passes, and hope that my rankings are proven correct. Leinart could finish 3 or 9 (or somewhere in between), but as long as he establishes himself as a clear cut pro bowl talent this year, I'll consider myself correct.
Just be aware that I'm not worried about the talent around a guy in my rankings. Of course that will affect his yardage totals, but I don't put a lot of stock into pure yardage. I'm worried about what a guy does with the opps he has. Schaub and Leinart were phenominal college players with lots of expeience who have shown some great things in limited time at the pro level. No reason to think that they won't be top ten passers this year.
