Yes. I'm pretty sure he knows more about this than anyone here. If he drafts a qb with the 3rd pick, I'll be fine and happy with it. For me, it's either Thigpen, Stafford, or Cassell. We can rule out Cassell. Im not fascinated with Sanchez as much because I dont really know if he's consistent. He played in an USC offense that is great year in and year out no matter who is at qb. I wouldnt put all my eggs on the Dirty Sanchez basket. Thigpen atleast needs a legit shot to be the starter. Stafford is a good qb who played in the best conference in all of college football(Sanchez played in a very average conference). But whatever happens happens. Im not going to bitch either way unlike you guys who will start PMSing if we dont draft Sanchez at 3(Im pretty sure Lions will take Stafford).

Tell me who the best NFL prospects on the USC offense are...he wasn't playing with Dwayne Jarrett or Mike Williams..

People say this shit without even realizing what was going on at SC or who's on the team.

mike williams???

The Patriots game says hello about Kurt Warner being near a football.


Your 2nd paragraph is based on a "what if" What's the point of it?

I would not be shocked to see Pioli take a later round or lesser name FA Qb and start him ahead of "thiggy"

Mike Williams was a GREAT college player that's the point I made there, he didn't have a player of that caliber with him when he was playing QB.

I literally wanna hear who this great USC offensive talent this past year was, people just think of Bush and Jarrett or Williams and assume it's always like that.

USC does not have the top tier offensive talent they had in the past. I like Gable, but he is no Reggie Bush or Moreno

I think Stafon Johnson will be a starter in the NFL as a RB but he is not a super duper back.

And then who do you got after that? Damian Williams he's a nice player but he's not a star, the USC skill positions were down this year there was nothing resembling a Williams, Jarrett or Bush out there.

Yeah Dwayne Jarrett has really blown up. Just look at what he's become.

USC players have done terrible once they come into the league lately. The best ones were backups at USC(White/Cassel).

but as a prospect???

I'm talking about what they were in college, jesus are you dumb?

The point was about who he's playing with at SC so it's what they are as college players, for the love of christ man.

USC had an NFL defense and a low end division one offense. Sanchez really could use more experience though before locking him in the top 3 picks. I am stil a Stafford guy

No you dont get it. I'm saying that Sanchez has the talent to play. But he needs more experience. ONE year is not enough. He had 2 years to start after his red shirt year, and he's just now starting. Why? How come he couldn't beat out Booty for the job even after Booty had surgery? How do we know he didn't have a fluke year. After all, Booty didnt have Jarrett/Mike Williams/Reggie Bush talent either, and they posted almost the same numbers.

can we all agree that leinart was a product of the talent around him and Sanchez does not have the same level of talent?

Finally! This is what I'm saying. Sanchez obviously has talent, but he's as inexperienced as can be aside from being a rarity like Matt Cassell. Stafford is ready for the NFL. He is years ahead of Sanchez.

Booty played with Jarrett there pal...

And for the record last year all the offensive coaches told Carroll they felt Sanchez should start over Booty and Carroll overruled them...

I think I know a bit more about SC than 99% of people that post here.

Or is Leinart the one who made the people around him look like they had talent? Dwayne Jarrett is on the practice squad now and Steve Smith is a 4th string WR. Who knows?

True. But dont you think that he's inexperienced? I mean, one year is no reason to make you a #3 pick.

LOL Jarrett is on the damn Panthers roster, I like how anyone who doesn't start is on the practice squad.

Jesus why must we get such dumbass posters?

Steve Smith caught 57 balls last year.

He's a damn good player.

williams is the only one who ended up just absolutely sucking, and leinart was a product of the talent around him IMO, Sanchez is a much better player and prospect IMO.

and reggie bush and white? and sam baker

Bush is a good player too, anyone who thinks he's a total bust is stupid they just expected way to much of him.

I HATED Leinart coming out of college. I think Sanchez is ok and most years would be a mid teen pick. I think Stafford is a physical specimen above and beyong sanchez but that does not make him a better player

No. No we can not. I would normally insult you at this point. I am going to refrain, because the very question you pose says more about your dumbassery than I EVER could.

calm down, i think he meant that sanchez didnt have the talent around him leinart had

He was on the practice squad for the whole 2007 season. Last season he was inactive most games.

He's ok, but for a #2 pick eh...

He was on their roster...if any team put a 2nd round pick on their PS he'd get claimed in a matter of minutes.

Please don't argue something that isn't true he's been on their roster his entire career.

You are correct; my apologies to KC Kid.

Apologies to KC Kid.

:D

Blame the Saints for that...even SC didn't use Bush as a workhorse back and that was in college.

Bush is a playmaker and extremely versatile but you aren't gonna pound him up the middle of your line 20 times that isn't his game.

Hell dude catches 100 passes.

Aw, you're so sweet!

Sorry, My bad, you're right. But still, he has been inactive most of his career

:doh!:Oi!

He isnt a work horse back, and the Saints didnt use him like one. They used McAllister for that.
