Cassel or Sanchez?

Never got a reply on this. I wouldn't want to give that kind of money to a player who's gonna ride the pine for at least 1 year either.


As far Curry goes i think a lot of people think that an OLB in a 3-4 rushes the passer from a 3 point stance most of the time. There have been some do it that way but OLBs in the 3-4 play from a two point stance alot. LOLBs usually don't play with their hand in the dirt. I was watching a Steelers replay on NFLN last night and both of their OLBs where in a 2 point stance almost exclusively.

I wouldn't expect any qb to start as a rookie, including a #1 pick. I'd rather groom them behind a vet. But that's just me.

As for Sanchez, I don't know. Stafford's the player I want.

As for what stance Curry comes out of, I don't think that's the issue for anyone. A lack of polished moves and experience is.

I'm with you as it relates to starting a rookie QB.

However, I've said of the two, Stafford or Sanchez, that Sanchez is more NFL ready and better equipped to start his rookie year than Stafford, and it appears that some of the draft gurus now see it the same way.

From a pure talent standpoint, Stafford would appear to have more upside.

But in watching a lot of both, I think Sanchez is going to be the better QB, because he just appears to have the intangibles that the great ones all have.

People also say neither Stafford of Sanchez are gonna be as ready as Ryan and Flacco. I'm wary of both but although a Jr Stafford has over 30 starts and to me that holds alot of weight.

I get that, but I just think Sanchez has the maturity to succeed.
