Flacco is just another one of those big tall guy Qbs that have no mobility and will either be a total flop (like Ryan Leaf) or mediocre (like Kyle Boller).  Hell he wasn't even the best QB in I-AA - that would be Ricky Santos (who beat Flacco's Delaware team two years in a row).  When are the NFL personnel guys going to get it!  You need an intelligent QB who makes good decisions, has precision passing, and most of all can move around in the pocket like Tom Brady (another unheralded draft pick - who confounded the "experts").  I don't care if you are 6'6" and 240 lbs.  If you can't make good decisions and be mobile in the pocket you will get sacked routinely by NFL pass rushers.  I fully expect that Prisco is right - Flacco is a mirage, and the Ravens will wake up three years and find that they still don't have a decent QB!

You are a judge of nfl talent?- ha! Prisco is the worst sportswriter ever.  The reason Santos might have been better is he had a better supporting cast.  And while you're knocking small school qb's, have you ever heard of mcnair, roethlisberger.  Heck, steve young went to BYU.  About the same size as Cal.  There is a reason you are a fan and Ozzie Newsome is one of the best GM's in football.  You cant judge a qb based on his college career.  Look at brady and peyton. both medioce college qb's.  The thing Flacco has over Boller; intelligence!  Flacco scored very high on the wonderlic, while boller was below average.  That makes the biggest difference in the pros.
