With most of the attention geared towards Matt Stafford and where he will go brings up an interesting topic. And I'm sure nobody is more interested to see where Stafford goes more than Mark Sanchez, QB, USC. If Stafford is picked first, chances are Sanchez will be picked in the next few picks to accomadate those teams QB needs ( ex: Seattle at #4). However if Detroit passes on Stafford, he will obviously go in the next few picks. This means Sanchez will drop a few picks, maybe to 9-15, because teams #1-8, with the exception of Detroit & Seattle, have needs elsewhere. This could be good for Sanchez, because much of his criticism has been he is underdeveloped. By going to a decent organization, he can have time to mold into a prolific pro QB. However, if he goes to Jacksonville, with a defensive minded coach in Jack Del Rio, I think he will suffer a bit. Either way I don't really see Sanchez turning into one of the bests of all time. Take a look at Matt Leinart's situation in Arizona. Leinart had all the tools to take the stage in AZ but has yet to do anything. My guess is Sanchez will be more like Leinart than another USC QB, Carson Palmer. Here is a link to a video regarding Sanchez's Combine performance:
