USA Today: QB Flacco heads list of small-school draft surprises

Yeah, I know this should be under "FCS And The Pros" section, but I figured since this was a major article in a national paper it could be posted under FCS Discussion

Good to see those "lowly" OVC players mentioned.

Nice article. It's good to see some national attention for FCS. Flacco and Henne seem to be a toss-up, based on the two games where they had a common opponent. Flacco does have a stronger arm though, and didn't make any bad mistakes in the NC that I can remember. Henne tried to force a pass in the second half against App that got intercepted and stopped a scoring drive.

I hope Jackson and Lynch make it in the pros. I think Jackson is more likely to be drafted. Lynch might be drafted but seems more likely to get a free agent tryout. I like to think he's a good enough player to make it even then.

If he's there at 8 in the second round, Baltimore is going to take him. Count on it.

Best of luck to them all. It would be nice to see that "conservative" streak go away in regards to FCS. We have great players at this level, too, with alot to offer. These guys deserve this chance.
