That is about as dumb of a position as I have ever seen. The guy is 22 years old, he doesn't even know what's best for him. He has had several people try to tell him. Like his father, coach Palmer and of course Pete Carroll.

Oh, and Mecca didn't just say what was best for Sanchez, but Sanchez and his family. His family is fine and wanted him to go back to school because they want the best for him.

When my 7 year old daughter wants to eat all of her Halloween candy in one sitting, she THINKS it is what is best for her. Being older and wiser, I don't allow it.

Now, Sanchez 'thinks' this is what is best for him. And, he isn't listening to anyone tell him differently.

The more I read about him, the happier I will be when the Chiefs don't take him.

Your comparing a 22 year old to a 7 year old?

Believe it or not at 22 years of age, most can think for themselves. You can go to war at 18, become a cop at 21, but I am sure that he can't make the correct decision regarding HIS life at 22.

He is going in the first and possibly very high in the 1st, I think it would have been a mistake not to come out. I think Bradford made a mistake going back, but it's just my opinion.

Sorry. I was kind of a jerk there.

I think a junior that has played at least two full years is fine coming out. I think a junior that has only started one year at the QB position should go back.

I joined the Navy at 18. I thought I was doing what was 'best' for me. I then became a Deputy Sheriff at 22, because I thought I was doing what was 'best' for me. I got married at 22, again... thought it was best for me.

All of them were mistakes....and frankly, I think this is a mistake for him too.

But, that is jmho.

Mecca didn't say that, I did. I believe every word of it too. At 22 years of age with a fully functional brain, I'd like to think he can weigh his options and pick what is best. His family might have disagreed and wanted him to graduate, but he might have felt financially, going early was best for them considering the potential rookie cap that might be placed.

I also think Bradford made a mistake by not leaving early. He might get drafted higher next year, but if a new CBA is in place and has a rookie cap, he missed out on a ton of money.

And who's to say this didn't play a BIG factor into his decision, worried about a rookie cap...
