More Flacco

OK. This is, I hope, the last Senior Bowl related post I write. Now that the game is over (which apparently no one associated with the NFL cares about), and all the practices and evaluations are completed, I figured it would be a good idea to mention at least one wrap-up. Here is Todd McShay's (ESPN/Scoutc Inc.) Top 5 Offensive Players. This is ESPN Insider content. So I've cut and pasted his list below. For the full article, here is the link: Senior Bowl Wrap-Up. Needless to say, Joe Flacco had a great all around week. He's now being projected as a Second Round pick. I'm not holding my breath on that. I do believe he is deserving of a selection that high, but I also think NFL execs. get a little nervous when they're on the clock and they tend to gravitate towards the larger more well known programs. I hope I'm wrong, because a Second Round pick would be fantastic exposure for UD Football. We'll see on April 26th.
