Reasons for drafting Sanchez

And you make a good point about Jason's demeanor. I think we all have to ask ourselves this question: What are the actual chances that Jason is destined to be an absolute superstar headed for Super Bowl MVP awards and a spot in the Hall of Fame? Doesn't someone like that have to show us more than what we've seen? Even when things around him aren't perfect, like the best O-line in the league and Pro Bowl wideouts? The truly great quarterbacks have something that makes everyone around them better.

Could it be that maybe, just maybe, Jason Campbell isn't that quarterback, and that he may never be?

We do not need JC to be that. Peyton Mannings are few and far between. We just need JC to be a solid starter that we can build a winner around. As far as I am concerned, signs are favorable that JC can fill this more realistic role.
