Why not?
The only way Sanchez sits for 2 years is if Thigpen becomes a quality QB and leads us to playoff victories...and if that's the case, I'm ok with Sanchez being on the bench...
If we draft a QB #3 and one of our QB's steps up and becomes a franchise quality QB I'm totally ok with the #3 pick on the bench...
It's a moot point though. I doubt Thigpen, Gray or Croyle are going to be THAT guy...so Sanchez sits a year, or half of a year, and then takes over.
You can't tell me another year at USC would have done some sort of miracle work on the guy...he either has it, or he doesn't...and if we draft him, we'll get to find out.
