If it's Peyton Manning or Dan Marino, then of course you take him. But Sanchez only started 1 year. How is his track record better than Matt Leinart's and look how well Leinart has done. Troy Aikman has rings, but he also had a hell of a good defense. How many super bowls did Dan Marino win? They had Dan Marino for a decade and a half and never won one because they never had a killer defense. We can argue all we want, there are tons of examples of busts from all positions with better players taken later. I think the real question is of priorities. Do you want to build offense or defense? Defense wins championships, so I want some defense. And if we can't do great on defense, then go Offensive line. Peyton Manning finally won a super bowl once they got the Defense going really well. The giants beat the patriots with Eli Manning managing games, and with a solid running game. There are not a lot of examples of teams winning because of a great passing game and a mediocre defense compared to great defenses and a mediocre passing game.
