I've long had that theory. Eli to NY was pretty obvious. Then Sanchez taken ridiculously high, again in NY. My theory on him was that the league wanted a new Hispanic face of the NFL in a major market. Then a few years later when the league expands he can go to LA in a blockbuster trade. Creates an automatic rivalry with NYC, puts a local hero as the centerpiece. 'course that gets derailed because he sucks, and they haven't expanded, but that was what I thought at the time.
