Mark Sanchez

Mark Sanchez was an absolute superstar at USC, where he led the Trojans to a Rose Bowl win over Penn State.  There was a lot of hope for the Mexican-American pivot to be a star in the NFL when he was drafted fifth overall by the New York Jets, but it did not quite work out that way.

Sanchez did not have a great rookie year with a 12-20 TD-INT ratio, but he did lead the Jets to the AFC Finals.  His next two seasons were better, with positive TD-INT ratios and Passing Yardage over 3,200, but he would lose his job and become the guy known for the "Butt Fumble."  Seriously, if you don't know what that is, Google it!

Sanchez bounced around with stops in Philadelphia, Dallas, and Washington before retiring with 15,357 Yards and 86 Touchdowns against 89 Interceptions.
