Imagine the melt down on the board if this shakes out like this guy thinks.

It's not like we're going to be drafting 30th next year anyways....so you'll probably have a decent shot again next year at a decent QB if necessary.

Not to be all doom and gloom....but hey...

To be fair, this year's crop of QB's looks like 1983 compared to next year's. If Tebow and Stafford decide not to come out, it will be the worst QB class EVER.

I'd take Henne...

Henne started four years at Michigan and was once considered on his way to stardom.

After leading the Wolverines to a perfect record going into their regular-season finale at Ohio State in his junior season, though, things began to crumble.

They lost that game to the rival Buckeyes and then lost the Rose Bowl to Southern California. Coming off those two bitter defeats, Henne's senior season was then plagued by injury and he missed three games.

Those factors caused his stock to fall, but by performing well here in the combine he may have climbed his way back up the list.

Unlike Henne, Flacco was not on television every week and played outside of a BCS conference at Delaware.

He was the tallest quarterback at the combine, coming in at 6-6. That height gives him the ability to see over most pro defensive linemen and find passing lanes.

He obviously did not play against the best competition in college, but his production was outstanding.

He passed for the most yards (4,263) in the Championship Subdivision during his senior season and had 23 touchdowns compared to only five interceptions.

If he can convince teams that he will be able to adjust to the higher level of competition, he might be taken sooner, rather than later, in the draft.

All that being said, Fisher noted on air that "this may be a Tom Brady draft," meaning that the best QB of the bunch may not be unearthed until the later rounds.

For now, though, Henne and Flacco have helped themselves with strong showings.
