People talk about Sanchez inexperience in all of Freemans starts he still plays like he just stepped on campus...
I still wouldn't go pimping McShay as a great source he's one of the dumbest guys ESPN puts on the air, but the combine is what it is. It's what you're looking for so not everyone will have the same view. I personally wasn't impressed by what Pat White was doing yet everyone else seemed to be.
And yes no one gets to see any sort of interview or intelligence test, those are the things that Sanchez is good at and no one gets to see those.

I am not sold on Freeman either. The difference is that I would assume that we would be taking Freeman no higher than our second round pick. (I would never advocate that we trade up for him)
That is much easier to stomach than taking Sanchez with the third.
The other thing is that Freeman doesn't have the surrounding talent or coaching staff that Sanchez does. It makes a difference.
There are a lot of guys that look great in college due to the coaching, and talent around them that never pan out in the NFL.
There are also a lot of guys that never look great in college because they are not put in the best position to win by their coaches and their teamates.
This is doubly true at the QB position.
