Joe Flacco. Dude played at like Delaware.


Was a three star qb in high school and statrted his career at Pitt. He was behind Tyler Palko, who was throwing for a decent amount of yards as starter, so Flacco transferred to 1-AA.

In this day and age Flacco most likely transfers to a bigger school with the portal.

Tyler Palko was a bum. His dad is a big time high school coach in the Pittsburgh area. Flacco probably got screwed at Pitt. But if you read Flacco's draft report it says he fits the mold but it was concerning that he couldn't beat Palko out and was in a run heavy Delaware offense. Many thought the Ravens reached taking him at 18th.

Perhaps the correlation is games started in college before they enter the pros.

Seems the more starts/experience, the better they handle the NFL.

I think Daniel Jones is a better example than Levis.

Poor dude is already forgotten about.

Anthony Richardson will go down as one of the biggest reaches in NFL draft history. All of the red flags were there as to how shitty of a QB he actually was, but the Colts GM saw his pro day workout and thought “I can fix him!” Hilariously bad pick @ 4th overall.
