But to your point... QBs generally bust at the highest rate. Other positions would be safer, without a doubt. But it's about risk vs. reward. QBs are high risk, high reward.

There may be people that don't know how to scout the QB position that think they are less NFL ready.
Scott Wright mentioned in his chat today that he thinks Stafford is a better prospect than both Cutler and Ryan.
He's admitted that Sanchez has everything you look for, but that the lack of experience may scare some teams.
QB's are going to bust at a higher rate, because they play the most important position on the field, and more is asked of them.
If a LT busts, you move him to guard. At least you're getting something out of him.
When a QB busts, you have to ride it out.
But if you're too chickenshit to take the risk, you'll never have to worry about losing playoff and championship games - you'll never get there.
