Good grief. Now he's arrogant?

After reading stories about Sanchez coming back from injuries and hard hits, the conclusion that is reached is that...........he might be arrogant and a head case.

Ok.

Frankly, the more I learn about the guy... I am beginning to think he is a head case.
I initially liked the idea that he was going to throw at the combine.

Now, I think he may be a little too arrogant.

I am sure you know about his arrest, I think in his redshirt Sophomore year because the girl said no and he wasn't hearing it.

Now, he has one good year in college and Pete Carroll tells him he should stay in school and he's not hearing it.

Just have to wonder if he thinks he knows better than everyone else, and has this self titled attitude.

Don't need that on this team.
I was really hoping to find out more about him and get sold on him.... nothing so far.

It's going to be a rough weekend for Sanchez. He's going to measure in shorter than his listed 6'3". He better hope he doesn't have to throw before or after Freeman because his arm will look like a wet noodle unless he goes into his extra wide "I'm pooping in the woods" stance he needs to get the ball downfield with any velocity. He'll also be all messed up having to throw to WR's that can actually run and catch. All I've been reading is that USC has no talent on offense. Now he's going to be throwing to real prospects for once in his life. He'll probably throw everything behind them since he is used to throwing the ball to clumsy oafs who run 4.8 40s and catch with their forearms.

USC has talent on offense, i think everyone will agree on this. It's just not the all-world talent that some people believe they have. Mecca's just saying that Sanchez hasn't had the luxury of getting by on other people coat tails. Sanchez is who he is because of his own talent and hard work, not the other people around him.

Reality or not, that is the perception, even among scouts. Did you catch the analysis of Sanchez from nfl.com?

Analysis
Positives: Ascending talent whose intangibles for the position are just as impressive as his physical tools. ... Cerebral. ... Reads defenses well and rarely throws into coverage. ... Goes through his progression quickly and takes what the defense gives him. ... Recognizes the blitz very well for a player of his experience and often targets the defenses' weak link when being blitzed. ... Good setup and a smooth, over-the-top delivery. ... Legitimate NFL arm strength. ... Capable of making every NFL throw, including the deep ball. ... Rather than relying on pure arm strength, Sanchez combines good velocity with rare anticipation, especially for a player of his limited experience. ... Consistently releases his passes before his receivers have even made their breaks, giving the defense little time to react. ... Distributes the ball all over the field. ... Good short-, medium-, and long-range accuracy. ... Consistently places his passes where only his receiver can get it and throws a very catchable ball. ... When healthy, showed very surprising mobility for his size. ... Can evade the pass rush and will scramble if the defense gives free yards. ... Rare accuracy on the rollout. ... Squares his shoulders and can fire the ball with consistency and accuracy. ... Team captain. ... Blue-collar work ethic.



Negatives: Only one season as the starter and leaves USC with just 16 career starts. ... Career record of 4-2 outside of the state of California. ... Undeniable tools, but isn't yet a finished product. ... Runs a bit hot and cold and has a tendency to score touchdowns in bunches. ... Characterized by those close to the program as a very cerebral player who makes the right read, but many of his touchdown passes went to receivers with five or more yards of separation between the next closest defender, opening up some questions if USC's dominant athletes and the team's aggressive play-calling helped him look even better. ... Suffered a dislocated left knee cap prior to the season opener and his mobility was limited.

That's the main reason I actually prefer Sanchez, even though I'm in the minority.

Seems like the first thing they mention about him are the intangibles, quick decisions, intelligence, passion, right before they mention the limited amount of starts, only playing from behind in one game, and the wrong decision to come out early. Then they usually say, "If this guy stayed in school, he would probably be the #1 overall pick next year".

Well, shit, draft the guy at #3 and let him sit and learn. Is he going to lose talent by learning in the NFL? Experience means a lot, but geez, won't experience learning to adjust how the NFL plays be more valuable?

I'm sure someone's going to follow this up by suggesting "Hey with both on the board, maybe we could trade down..."
