People that get paid to do this have made many mistakes. Wilson and Kaepernick just being the latest ones.

Sanchez won out of the gate. NY had far too much invested in Eli and fans were calling for his head, they weren't patient. Oh and the characteristics that scouts are looking were evident with Eli, I guess not so much with Geno.
NY is not a patient town. And the "some franchises are patient enough to allow a rookie qb to develop" only happens if they are confident in the players ability to develop, they are not. Jets took a flyer because they had few to no other options. It hasn't paid off, the fans are not confident in it ever paying off and the one's that anticipated this will continue getting a paycheck.
