Both Stafford and Sanchez aren't thought of as the most accurate of quarterbacks -- at least not when measured against last year's two first-round QBs, Matt Ryan and Joe Flacco. I loved what Saints head coach Sean Payton had to say about the accuracy issue when it comes to grading quarterback prospects. It means everything.

"It's a very simple statement, but the quarterback needs to be accurate,'' said Payton, who has one of the NFL's most accurate passers in Drew Brees. "I don't want to hear about how he's going to become more accurate. Generally he's got to be someone who can target and find his throws and you don't want to be holding your breath in your 7 on 7's, with some guy throwing 50 percent. He needs to complete every ball (in those drills), with maybe one or two on the ground, that's it.''

Let's just say Stafford and Sanchez have some ground to make up in that department.

Huh?

Senior year completion percentage:

Flacco: 63.5%
Ryan: 59.3%
Stafford: 61.4%
Sanchez: 65.8%

Exactly in what way do Stafford and Sanchez have ground to make up?

"That doesn't leave you. You can have a dominant skill player, but he might get hurt one week or the wind might be blowing, like it was in Buffalo when New England played up there, and you can't throw the ball. Or the footing might be bad and the running back can't make his yards. But offensive line and defensive line will make you consistent from week to week.''

A quotation like that in Detroit is likely to push some people over the edge. That's just irresponsible.

If this guy is right we may well see the top 2 picks go OT, especially with no real consensus top tackle. This would leave us in a pretty nice spot.

If Stanford is there at #3
the offers could be mind boggling

Unless or until it's substantiated, verified, confirmed, and corroborated, I wouldn't believe anything any team might say at any time anywhere.

And that goes for the Star, that KK guy, and Betty the part-time prostitute, too.

I was questioning this as well.

Banks obviously didn't do his homework before writing this piece.

If Stafford is there at #3 and we accept an offer to trade down and let someone else have him, not only will the Planet melt down, half the posters here will have to be on suicide watch.


The guy does make some sense though. Add in Detroit did take Drew Stanton early in the 2nd last year, don't know if he'll pan out or not, but taking a QB high in the second, I'd think they would at least let him have a shot at playing before canning him for a #1 pick qb.

Sanchez is pretty damn accurate. Stafford, not as much.

If they can bluff StL thinking they are going to take the OT StL wants and get them to give up draft picks to move up 1 spot to get the OT they want, leaving Detroit to get Stafford on the 2nd pick and get a couple more decent picks to boot.

Like I said it won't matter that much this is a very deep year for OT at the elite talent level

The craziest thing I've heard, and it may not be too crazy because it involves Al Davis, is this: The Chiefs and Raiders would swap the 3rd and 7th picks if Al Davis loves Crabtree, and he thinks the Seahawks will select Crabtree.

I can see STL doing that but not KC

The NFL ought to boot Al's ass out of the league if he's crazy enough to trade from 7 to 2 for Crabtree.
