Passing on a big prospect is always of note for every team. As Mecca mentioned, Detroit and St. Louis fans will have the very same discussions if some player who went just a few picks later, and thus SHOULD have been on everyone's radar, turns into a stud.
It's just the nature of the draft. It's fun to second guess and play the what if game. Everyone knows who the top prospects are; it's no secret that Stafford and Sanchez were studs coming out of college.
