	I just saw that the Ravens drafted Flaco at Number 18 wow that is probably the worst pick in the first round. This guy transferred from Pitt bc he wasn't going to beat someone out for the starting position. Another bad QB pick for Baltimore.

	No kidding! They should've picked Otah because they need help badly on the O-line and grabbed Brohm in the second round. If they really wanted Flacco, I could've guaranteed the powers that be that he would've been there well into the second round (and Flacco only if Brohm got nabbed). That pick sucked ass!

	Are you and Prisco crazy? This guy is a steal. Hell I was even high on this guy as the Number 2 QB behind Matt Ryan. Don't tell me that Brian Brohm, Chad Henne or John David Booty is better than him because he's not. Regardless of what people think (good or bad) we had to get this guy. He's everything that a team wants. 6'6 that has has an arm, he's big tough to bring down, and he can see the field. This however means that Kyle Boller and Troy Smith have competition on their hands for the starting position at QB. This will be a goldmine I guarantee it.

	Terps, you make no sense. You cannot draft a guy because he had a great senior season for the Blue Hen! They lost to Appalachian State in the NCAA subdivision title! The Ravens are crazy. I understand why they picked a QB, but why not Brian Brohm? This pick made absolutely NO sense.

	This kid has never played against a real defense before and now he's asked to be the franchise QB? Laughable. In the second round alright, but #18... wow!

	This is a really dumb pick. Prisco was being a little generous by giving the Ravens a 'D.' This should have been an 'F' rating. No way should Flacco be taken before the second round. When you leave a proven QB like Brian Brohm on the draft board and pick up a guy with a great senior year (Flacco), you're making a mistake. This is Kyle Boller all over again. What a terrible pick!

	haha what a dumb pick this was, I was at the Ohio University game when we beat Pitt and Flacco threw 2 interceptions in the game, not to mention them both being returned for touchdowns and one was in overtime to win the game, no wonder he didnt last at Pitt. I cant even believe this guy is getting drafted. Troy Smith is much better than this guy.

	I strongly disagree with that assessment, but only time will tell whether the Ravens made a good pick. I think that Brohm would have been the better fit for Baltimore, but Flacco could prove to be a good franchise QB.

	How is a guy that couldnt even win the job at pitt better than a guy who played for osu and won the hiesman?
