Thing is, you need to be either a top sprinter, or an insane descender + amazingly strong on the flat to win MSR. Then you need to be really really punchy to win LBL, great at cobbles for PR, and then a combination of both, ideally with a good sprint, for RVV. Finding a rider like that is next to impossible, even over the course of a career. If Cancellara was a bit younger, then maybe he after losing weight, he would stand a chance in some of the ardennes. Degenkolb, Sagan and Thomas are all also potentially capable, but really, the closest rider to fitting that description, imo, is Van Avermaet - punchy, good on the cobbles and a fast finish, but at the age of 30, he's probably too old to do it now, along with Cancellara and Thomas
That's basically Sagan.
Sagan has a long way to go on the cobbles
