Looking at Mel Kiper's latest mock draft on espn.com, he comes up with Sanchez for the skins. Of course, its based on the Skins stance of taking the best player available (and he believes if Sanchez came back for his senior year at USC he would be the number 1 pick). I cannot stress enough how much I disagree with this pick. Even if he's the best player available, its not something I as a fan could endorse. It likely comes mostly from liking Colt, and wanting to see him get a chance, I admit. The only way such a pick would be palatable, would be if JC were moved draft day for a second round pick or a 3 plus another pick or player dependent on position. Then we are forced to start all over at QB. I am completely in favor of letting your 1 rounders start off the bat, but because of Colt's familiarity with the offense (though USC runs a pro-style offense, so it could be a decent transition) should allow him to be the assumed starter. And with the hatchet always looming overhead, Colt would give Zorn the best chance to win now.
