Someone explain to me what makes Aaron Curry worth the 3rd pick?

As for arguement sake, I think I have a good one. The 3rd pick in the draft for a green QB is very risky. You have attempted to communicate that it's some sort of slam dunk. I disagree. Sanchez may wind up being great. But there is nothing to indicate that it is even likely. Many good QBs from college come into the NFL and do squirt. Especially those with little experience.

If we draft a QB I will be happy enough about it. If we draft Currey, that'll be cool too. The main thing for me is that we get a good player. If we get a good player, it will be worth the 3rd pick.

I dont pretend to know everything about these players, as some with several hundred posts do. I'm just puttin my opinion out there.

Defense guy huh, well tell me what awesome defense was built around it's OLB that didn't get sacks.
