Mark Sanchez at 13th?

This is just the way they do things. Never sit back, also get involved if for no other reason than to shake things up. As I mentioned in other posts, I don't think getting Cutler was ever the prime initiative. It was more about a) a limited lack of faith in Campbell's ability to lead a team to a championship (as opposed to being part of a championship team) and b) seeing if they could fit in as the third team perhaps so that they could get some draft picks

There will be varying opinion on the existance of a Quarterback who is able to will his team to a championship, but even if Snyder really does believe this player exists, what about Jay Cutler looks like this player. Jay Cutler is a good "stats" guy, conventionally and metrically. So is Jason Campbell. But if the problem with Campbell is that the Redskins don't feel he's the right guy, why the absolute infatuation with Cutler? What did they see in Cutler that the rest of us don't that would put him in the Manning/Brady category.

Well, like I've said I don't believe it was ever really about Cutler

I think there's no way Sanchez falls to 13. Probably SF at 10.

I hope Sanchez does NOT fall to us at 13. That way the FO doesn't have the chance to screw up and pick him... At this point we need to focus on the Lines, and evaluate Campbell's performance THIS season. If Campell struggles this year, especially if the o-line elevates thier play\performance, the team needs to play Colt towards the end of the season, in order to figure out If we should draft\trade for a quarterback for 2010. I DO NOT think Sanchez would be a smart pick considering his lack of play at USC, and the depth of Quarterback talent in next years draft versus this year.

Jason could become a good quarterback in the near future but I think this kid could be our franchise quarterback for the next 10 -15 years. Everything I hear about him makes me believe that we may have to draft him if he's there. He always make the right read, takes what the defenses gives him, very accurate even on the move and he's cerebral which he is able to go through the playbook and analyze it. They even say he knows where the blitz is coming from even though that was college not the pros but can be taught by Zorn. USC also runs the west coast offense which is similar to ours per Fred Davis. I was favoring the linebacker Rey but Sanchez might need to be the answer. Before I get flack for this thread I know we need oline help as well as LB and DE help but franchise quarterbacks brings championships. Guys what do you think?

I think that Dan Snyder is a good avatar for you.

IMO we need to let Campbell play his contract season, and take it from there. Colt has been/is being groomed by Zorn and if for some reason we need to part ways with JC after this season, Colt will have every opportunity to audition for the job this preseason and next. If deemed necessary, we should make a splash NEXT offseason for a first round QB and hopefully for one with more experience and/or potential. This is a HUGE if, and for all we know JC will have a career season and get a seven year extension.

on a totally unrelated note, and just out of curiosity, does anyone know if Colt worked out for us before we drafted him?

I agree. I think the best thing to do is see what's what with Soup and make a decision at the end of the year. Let Colt or Collins play if Soup doesn't work out. If Collins doesn't win out then let him go and get an insurance policy in FA next year. Then Draft Tim Tebow or some other bad a** QB in the draft next year. If Colt doesn't work out then you've got another young guy and an insurance policy sitting right there, just like we have now.

First of all, Soup = clever

second, drafting a "bad a** QB" would be contingent upon us having a bad enough season to have the draft power to get a QB of such stature. Third, and finally, if this happens I would not go after Tebow.

If we go 8-8 again we'll be looking for a new QB next year, Tebow or not. With a full complement of draft picks, (barring that the FO doesn't trade them away betweeen now and then) we'll have plenty of fire power to get a talented QB if he falls to us or if we need to trade up. This is the worst case scenario.

The alternative is that we win the division and go to the play-offs.
Either way it's a smart move because they'll have played things through for once.

NO NO NO NO NO!!!!!!!!!!!! They have needs at OL, DL, and LB that are staring them in the face. They must address those 3 first and foremost before they do something as foolish as that.

Hell nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm surprised that worry from the possible Cutler trade hasn't transferred to worrying about trading up to get Sanchez because that's probably what it will take. Danny still might trade away the future.

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.

No, No and no! We need to concentrate on our O and D lines.
