So the issue is whether or not Sanchez will be a great QB - - because that is the only way that Scenario 1 makes even a shred of sense.

For the record, I would not make that deal. I think Sanchez excelled in a program where just about every player on the USC side of the ball was better than the guy who lined up against him in the "other colored jersey". It would be difficult for a QB not to look good under those circumstances.

I agree completely. My comments were based on the thinking that Sanchez is not the next Peyton Manning.
