That's a weak comparison. The numbers are misleading in this case. Schaub was a potential starter when he came out of UVA drafted in the 3rd round by Atlanta. They picked him because Vick couldn't stay healthy and they needed someone to come in and play at a decent level. Flynn was drafted in the 7th round to be nothing more than a backup. He's developed to the point now where he is regarded as a potential starter based on a very small sample. Last year do we remember who was all the buzz as a late round pick who played relatively well in a small sample in a high pressure situation? Caleb Haine. How did that turn out?
