We took a consensus top 5 pick over a guy nobody projected to even be in the top 10. First of all, if we were still in a 4-3, I absolutely think Dorsey would have lived up to the pick. But secondly, you can't look back and regret a pick that nobody in their right mind would have projected. Rodgers and DJ is a legitimate miss because Rodgers could have and should have had that value. Flacco didn't have Dorsey value at draft time.
A few years later, in hindsight, Flacco's looking like a top 5 pick. But that's hindsight. |

Not sure Flacco looks like a top-five pick, but I agree with the first paragraph, and it's longer.

You're an idiot.
Dorsey was a no brainer pick. Flacco wasn't good in the playoffs early on. He's been excellent the last few years. Flacco is a much better player than Dorsey. But I guess captain hindsight comes along to call people idiots. Good work. |

There were reasons not to take Dorsey. But he was a consensus top 10 pick and most people easily had him slotted at top 5. If not Dorsey, Ellis, Clady, and McKelvin were high on everyone's boards. Of course in hindsight, I'd take Flacco over all those guys. But hindsight is 20/20.

I still wouldn't take Flacco.
I'm just not a big fan. He has great disposal of weapons in Baltimore. He came into a perfect situation with a dominating defense.

No! That being said we do need a QB, and a couple of average O-linemen.
