From today's Philly News..
Mike Mayock's take on NFL draft's offensive crop..
The Riser
Joe Flacco, Delaware
6-6 1/2, 236
40 time: 4.84
Projected round: 1
Mayock: "He has the biggest arm in the draft. Some people think 5 years from now, he'll be the best quarterback out of this class. He's sneaky athletic. He runs well, moves well. He looks a little like [Ben] Roethlisberger in the pocket. But the biggest thing he's going to have to work on at the next level is his footwork in the pocket. He's basically never been under center before."
also included in the 'sleeper class.. is Richmond RB.. Tim Hightower
The Sleeper
Tim Hightower, Richmond
6-foot, 226
40 time: 4.70
Projected round: 5-6
Mayock: "He's a big, tough, physical, downhill runner. Was a team captain. Has a good work ethic. Had over 1,900 yards as a senior and caught 32 passes. I think he'll go somewhere in the fifth or sixth round."
