• 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.
That strikes me as an odd statement. Wasn't accuracy one of the things people were concerned about with Ryan last year (he finished under 60% his last year at BC - which didn't concern me at all at the time)? Sanchez had a higher completion percentage in 2008 than Ryan did during any of his seasons, and fewer picks. He did have more ints than Flacco did in 2007 (10 to 5), but, again, a higher completion percentage (65.8 vs 63.5).

I'm clearly missing something. I can see that statement regarding Stafford, but it doesn't make sense to me with Sanchez.
