Take Flacco off that list. He played good for 4 games one stretch in his life. I dont see it every happening again.
I was just going on a list of what teams consider as their franchise QB. I don't like Flacco either, but Baltimore and Ozzie Newsome seem to. Otherwise they wouldn't have given him that ridiculous contract.
I'm just simply pointing out everyone insists that to get a franchise QB, we absolutely MUST have a top-5 pick. I'm clearly just showing its been anything but that black and white when it comes to selecting a QB. Sure, having a top-5 pick seems like its more likely. But as you can see selecting a QB is not that easy. You need a little luck on your side.
There's not going to be an Andrew Luck or Peyton Manning in every draft. Those guys are a rarity to find period.
