Re: Mark Sanchez at 13th?
Mark Sanchez is not a star and he won't win right away. So this won't give the Danny another tantrum. Let's just hope no more QBs become disgruntled with their teams.

Re: Mark Sanchez at 13th?
No, No and no! We need to concentrate on our O and D lines.

Re: Mark Sanchez at 13th?
unfortunatly he will be gone we our pick comes around. sanchez will not make it out of the top 10, and he is not going to get past denver who picks right before us at #12 but i agree with you ,he would be our franchise quarterback for at least 12 years......

Re: Mark Sanchez at 13th?
If he makes it to 13, and Orakpo and M. Oher are gone, I say yes. It's a given that J. Smith and Monroe are gonna be gone. I think Sanchez is extremely cerebral and a hard-worker. He doesn't have a rocket for an arm but he has plenty of arm strength. His fundamentals are outstanding for a college qb, better than some pros form what I've heard. And if you lok at past 1st round qbs, the ones w/ the rocket arms dont make it often, the 2 recent exceptions being the Manning brothers. Cerebral QBs w/ questionable arm strength who are stars: Drew Brees, Matt Ryan, and some guy named Brady....I think he's won 3 Super Bowls and was 1 unbelievable catch,by David Tyree, away form having 4 rings. Im not ready to throw the towel in on Campbell just yet, but im close. I'm just saying take Sanchez in case Campbell doesnt show major improvement this season, that way he can be learning the offense, because I dont think Brennan is the answer. And If Campbell lights it up this year, then we have a decision to make.

Re: Mark Sanchez at 13th?
Stay with JC and forget Sanchez. We have more problems on this team than QB. We need to get a DE or a solid linebacker. Also a good offensive lineman is a necissity!! Remember the redskins three superbowls were won with a great line.

Re: Mark Sanchez at 13th?
For those of you who don't think Mark Sanchez is a franchise QB or that he won't be able to play right away, Trent Dilfer thinks you're wrong. Trent was a so-so quarterback (who reminds me of Campbell in alot of ways), but he is probably the best former player analyst on ESPN and he seems to be a very good judge of quarterbacks.
Dilfer was on the Herd a few days ago and he was absolutely gushing about Sanchez. According to Dilfer, Sanchez is not only the best QB in this draft, but he's also better than any of the QBs entering the draft next year. I dont remember details on everything Dilfer said, but he said its amazing how good Sanchez was last year, considering it was his first year as a starter and the O-Line, RB play and receivers were far worse than when Leinhart was QB at USC. Dilfer also compared Sanchez favorably to Tom Brady and Peyton Manning in that they have a commanding lockerroom presence. He said guys like Cutler arent leaders and dont command respect. When Sanchez walks into the room, it doesnt matter who else is in there, the focus is on him - he has that type of presence. Dilfer commented on how important that type of presence was in a QB. He said that Sanchez has it all and was absolutely confident that he would not only become an elite QB, but also that his "aura" would make everyone around him better. If Sanchez is available at 13, I think its a no-brainer that we take him and trade Campbell for a 2nd rounder or a 3rd and a 4th. I also think its worthwhile to trade UP to get him, if necessary. Yes, we have other needs. I know. I'm not forgetting about OT, DE, and OLB. But The Colts had a ton of needs when they drafted Peyton Manning. But the did the smart thing. They drafted him, and then built a team around him. Unless Dilfer is completely mistaken, I think we can do the same with Sanchez.

I don't think it's a no-brainer at all. Especially if you're talking about trading Campbell for as low as a 4th. What is there to gain there?

Re: Mark Sanchez at 13th?
We don't even need to worry about taking him because there is no way he is going to be there.

Re: Mark Sanchez at 13th?
Denver is rumored to be trying to move up and snap up the "Dirty Sanchez".

Re: Mark Sanchez at 13th?
Just curious who would you draft at 13 if Orakpo and Sanchez were both available?

They also are a team that had far more holes than we do now. They had the worst record in football in 1997 - they went 3-13 - which is why they were drafting first. We were an average team in 2008. We've filled the vast majority of the teams glaring holes. Bring back Daniels and Wynn allows us to "get by" another year at DE if we have to. We have a hole at SLB, but Blades didnt do a half-bad job there last year. We had the 4th ranked defense in 2008 and we added the best Defensive lineman in football to our roster and replaced an aging injury-prone Shawn Springs with a 25year old pro-bowler who has the 3rd most interceptions of anyone in the league the past 5 years.... our defense will easily be top 10 next year even if nothing else changes. On offense, we've already upgraded our interior dramatically with Dockery and Jansen and Heyer are duking it out for the starting RT job. Competition should ensure whoever wins the job (if we didnt draft anyone else) would be better than they were in 2008. The big question mark with our team is quarterback. The team has expressed no confidence in Campbell and less than a week ago, they were within minutes of replacing him. They might be showing more support in Campbell now, but he certainly hasnt done anything in the past week to give them any more confidence in his ability to be a franchise QB. Even if we want to be completely short-sighted and only look at the 2009 season, we will be a better team in 2009 than we were in 2008 (when we were average) without making any more changes. And, ill add, we will certainly be better than the 1998 Colts team that went 3-13 again. It wasnt until 1999 that everything turned around and they went 13-3 and have been a dominant team since.... all because they took a long term approach and invested in a franchise quarterback when they had the chance. Anyway, we are an average to slightly above average team right now. We've already made major improvements to our roster. Everything else we get in the draft (and after) is just "gravy." IF Dilfer is right about Sanchez, then it makes all the sense in the world to get him this year. We will have our franchise QB, a team that enters 2010 with the same "holes" we have now (RT, SLB, and DE), but we will have almost a full compliment of picks in 2010 to fill those needs - not to mention free agency in a possibly uncapped year. IF Dilfer is right, Long-term it makes sense to get Sanchez, even if it means letting a few holes remain until 2010.

Re: Mark Sanchez at 13th?
Do you guys think that us looking at Leftwich has anything to do with us preparing for a QB change? I don't see us going QB in the first round, but a new backup could lead the way if we got rid of Campbell after the year... or just serve as a mentor to some kid we drafted
