Geno is an exponentially better prospect than Sanchez, if for no other reason than he was a 3 year starter with outstanding performance that improved annually. He also (supposedly) has all the intangibles to go with his physical attributes, which Sanchez did and does not. I've heard people talk about how he "won't be ready for a while", and while I don't think you can ever assume that any QB will be game-ready immediately as a rookie, I just don't see how he's any less ready than anyone else has been the last few years. They've all had offenses tailored to their strengths, and I don't see why it would need be any different with him. So I'm not sure why he's talked about like it's a foregone conclusion that he's a project. He shouldn't be, no more than anyone else, and less than some (namely Sanchez).
Sanchez never should've been even a first round prospect though. That was all media hype machine. And there weren't many of us who didn't fall for it.
