No
Flacco is a decent QB with a big arm but he is very inconsistent. One drive he looks great and then the next drive he looks like Matt F**king Cassel! I'd much rather get our own QB with the #1 pick. If we had to trade for a QB, I wish it were Kapernick and only him if we were looking for a starter. |

Flacco should've won the AFCCG for his team last year. Evans dropped the ball in the endzone. The kid is clutch, and has a great arm. He's a top 5 QB in the league.

Abso****inglutely. It's not to say that Luck and RGIII won't beat him out at some point, but it takes more than 1 year to do that. Period. The Manning's, Brady, and Rodgers are the only ones in the league who are really head and shoulders ahead of him. He is ****ing CLUTCH when it counts in the playoffs. Blame the DB, blame whomever, he made the throw. It got there. This time his guy caught it. He made a couple of over throws in that game, but no QB is going to hit them all from 45 yards away. He made enough to beat the 1 seed, and advance to the AFCCG. Again.

I mean you have Brady, Rodgers, Brees and Manning right out the chute. Is he better than every other QB in the league? No chance. He's 10-12, IMO.

Keep in mind, these arent necessarily all the players I'd give up a 1st overall pick for....I'm just naming the QB's I'd rather have over Flacco.

I hate it when I agree with you....but a couple of other thoughts.
I wouldn't mind a Brady or Rodgers if we also had a "QB-in-waiting" that could be tutored. But with the climate of the league it is almost impossible to groom a QB because none of them want to hold a clipboard and apprentice before taking the field. And I guess I'm a bit of a throwback.....I think the franchise QB is the guy who is more of a mobile pocket QB whose first thought isn't to run. Luck is the closest to that for the new crop of QB's so I see him lasting longer than RGIII, Kaepernick, Newton, et al. I think it has been proven that the running QB's have a shorter shelf life and with the $$'s that teams have to pay these days it just doesn't seem worth it. And to me, there isn't really a clear cut choice to spend a #1 choice on a QB this year. I know everyone is in love with Geno but I'm not sold on him, he just seemed too inconsistent. |

I think these guys (Harbaugh and Carroll) are too smart to continue to jeopardize their investments over the long haul.

If either of these QB's has a chance it's probably Kaepernick because Harbaugh understands the QB mentality and can probably guide him better. I don't think Carroll has that mentality and his desire to win will take over common sense. |

Let's try draft and develop. A novel approach.

Ya, I don't get it, Dave. Flacco isn't leaving the Ravens. Why beat yourself over it.
