Well, I wouldn't EXPECT anyone in YOUR office to know who he is.......

Re: Who is Joe Flacco?

I was talking to a woman from Delaware the other day who didn't know who Joe Flacco was.

For the record, she said none of her kids would be attending UD. It's not even considered a good school in Delaware. And no, she's not black for those thinking that could be the only reason for her to think that.

I thought everyone would know eveyone in Delaware...

Re: Who is Joe Flacco?

Heard recently Flacco moved up to #3 in potential QB selection picks (ESPN)
I love to see DIAA guys do well, but, damn, I still hate a couple of their fans...

Joe Flacco is going to be making a lot of money very soon. He will also be making Dave Wannstedt look very foolish, which isn't hard to do.

I still think UD owes Wannstedt a ring from the National Championship game... He gave them two players.

Wannstedt is a complete douche. I watched him this year coach his team out of a win againts Navy.

Re: Who is Joe Flacco?

There was an article in the Red Star Tribune this AM about how the ViQueens are pretty interested in Joe Flaccid. Watch these idiots burn their number 1 or 2 pick on him. So much for "T-Jack" being the next Tom Brady.

Re: Who is Joe Flacco?

I seriously doubt that Flacco will go to the Vikings in the first or second round. Look for the Vikes to draft another dud DE and find a QB in the 3rd or 4th round. I like the Vikings strategy of taking the best player at any position when it is their turn to draft (AD panned out didn't he?)



Analysis

Positives: Certainly looks the part. ... Tall, rangy frame with room to add additional mass. ... Prototype arm strength. ... Can make all of the NFL throws with ease. ... Adequate speed in his set up and delivery. ... Solid mechanics. ... Possesses an over-the-top delivery and good footwork. ... Showed significant improvement in terms of poise and accuracy as a senior. ... Consistent accuracy in the short- and medium-range passing, especially toward the sidelines. ... Improved accuracy deep. ... Learned to read defenses better as a senior. ... Made proper check-downs in second year in the Delaware offense rather than relying on his big arm to thread the needle. ... Has shown the ability to handle two different offensive schemes in making a successful transition from Pittsburgh to Delaware. ... Lacks foot quickness and pure speed to ever be a true scrambling threat, but is a strong runner -- especially as a QB sneak threat -- due to his toughness and size. ... Isn't a finished product, but shows the tools worthy of development. ... Hasn't missed a game due to injury in his collegiate career.

Negatives: Wasn't able to beat out Tyler Palko at Pittsburgh and only became a starter after transferring to lower level Delaware. ... Protected at Delaware with a strong running game. ... Improved feel in the pocket, but still hangs on to the ball too long and isn't particularly mobile. ... Took the majority of the snaps at Delaware in the shotgun, raising questions about his ability to make the transition to the typical QB-center exchange, especially considering his lack of foot quickness. ... Can slide up into the pocket to buy time, but isn't going to scare defenses with his scrambling ability. ... Tends to lock-on to his receivers.
