Worst stable of QB's i can remember. Particularly for the Ravens and the way that they play football.

All they need is a guy that can go in and not turn the ball over. They only need to score what 2 TD's to have a really good shot at winning any game.

They should have picked Brohm, and given him the starting job from the get go. At least he knows how to make reads in a pro system.

I agree that they should have picked Brohm over Flacco - they wouldn't have even needed to sacrifice any draft picks for him and couldn't have got him in the second round. However, it's not the worst stable of QBs anyone can remember - Atlanta last year after Vick was kicked off takes the biscuit (Redman and Harrington??).

At least, this stable has potential - I say give it to Smith. He has the intangibles that make him, and consequently his team, a winner. However, I think the Ravens organisation will be averse to doing so because the playbook would need to be refined slightly to accomodate his style of play. Flacco fits much better than Troy Smith without too much readjustment - but Brohm would have fit far better than either of them.

I would argue that the Atlanta stable from last year was not assembled at all. They had zero time to put the position together.

On the other hand, the Boller, Smith, Flacco group has been assembled over a 5 year period, deliberately. They got the Qb they wanted to go after in every draft.
