Just a couple of tidbits I heard on ESPN today:

First for all those enamored with Sanchez: On Cowherd's show (while a Skins bashing a-hole, he does from time-to-time make a good point or two). Paraphrased "Of QBs taken with picks in the top 12 overall in the last 8 years (I believe), there were a total of 18, 11 are generally considered busts, 2 the jury's still out, and 5 are hits." So on the high end 38% and on the low end 27.7% are the chances that Sanchez will be the "QB of the future" for the Skins. Are you JC basher/Sanchez/Quinn lovers willing to risk at a minimum two 1 round picks and a 4th, on what is a sub-38% chance of success.

Second, Mike Torico (sp?) mentioned that he doesn't even talk with NFL people at this time of year because all you get is misinformation and I believe he used the phrase "a bunch of smoke".
