With the 13th pick of the 2008 NFL Draft, the Carolina Panthers select:

Joe Flacco.

With the 19th pick of the 2008 NFL Draft, the Carolina Panthers select:

Chris Johnson.

Discuss.

Don't know what dropoff there would be without Otah for run/pass blocking.

I can say what the Huddle would say about Flacco after yesterday's game, though (these are taken from the Ravens board):

Absolutely no excuse for this guy. I'm so sick of hearing about how strong his arm is, yet he constantly underthrows recivers week after week. He's become a cancer to us.
Only a sophomore slump. Calm down guys.
Ridiculous play out of flacco downright maddening I love the ravens but this is one lackadaisical team on offense seem to lack a sense of urgency flacco play in the clutch was horrible
Its only his second year. Joe will learn from this performance.
I want Kyle Boller back. Laugh all you want, but I think he'd be better. He never got a chance with this new offense. Don't even bring up the Rams, they are a qb cemetary, no matter who you put in.
Pack it up for the season Flacco you ****!!!!!!
Look people, the offense had a horrible night and Flacco had one of his worst games of his career and you can't say that this loss shouldn't fall on the young QB's shoulders but some of the crap that has been saids about Flacco tonight just is wrong and really doesn't belong here.

all we'd really lose is the run blocking. Otah is an average pass blocker

Well, the Ravens are paying a steep price for Flacco's 'sophomore blues' this year. But at least he has the opportunity to HAVE the sophomore blues, because on this team, he probably wouldn't get a look at! And given how Jake has never learned how to look his receivers off, why would anyone think that our current crop of coaches could develop Flacco, or anyone else for that matter?

Why would you want to take away our draft history, Stewart and Otah are beasts and make double trouble what it is today. We are lucky to have two excellent backs who compliment each other great(Stewart is the big bruiser and Dwill is the speedy one) and a good run blocking o-line.

makes no sense to me

Because it is really easy to look back and say "Oh,they should have done this or that." and it makes people feel smart. When in all reality just about everyone would have freaked the fug out if we would have taken Flacco 13th overall.

Yeah, he has panned out but the general consensus was that Flacco might go low 1st most likely high 2nd and the only reason he would go that high was the class was weak. He was thought of as a project by most. Tall kid with the big arm who played DII ball.

      Great article on all the Lil Canes attending their debutantes ball. Walt with a great breakdown of all the rookies, as always, and I'm a huge fan of his team coverage, he is truly a treasure, but as a fan of mixed metaphors and superfluous language which some might ignorantly refer to as a "run-on sentence" I never really understood what that mean or where to put the comma after a quote in the middle of a sentence, but holy poo Walt, this is a gem, "While there's a long road left in front of them left to determine whether or not they'll have that same success on the blue line again, the beginning stretch of the journey has been thrown a wrench, and the story on defense has been the emergence of up-and-comers forced into becoming lineup regulars." , bravo, take a bow, sir!

      When the broadcast showed the two benches side by side during the last TV timeout, it was pretty obvious the whole operation is a shitshow. If I was the owner, I would play that clip, with commentary, on the jumbotron at MSG as I fired the coach, GM, President, the whole lot. Bring in your AHL leadership team, wholesale, to finish out the season and start from scratch next year.  Can't fire all the players and fold the season. But, hopefully decapitating the zombie will light a fire under the body and burn out the cancer of the roster. (It makes sense if you don't think about it...) There are obviously issues on the roster. But, you can't have the entire coaching staff completely tuned out with 5 minutes left in a 2 goal game this early in the season. And you can't trust the people that hired them to hire the next staff. If you trust your AHL GM/Scouts, let them run the deadline firesale.   ...     Please don't let the owner read any of this. Because, this poo is hilarous!
