Rodgers and DJ is a legitimate miss because Rodgers could have and should have had that value. Flacco didn't have Dorsey value at draft time.

A few years later, in hindsight, Flacco's looking like a top 5 pick. But that's hindsight.
Dorsey had a ton more board value than Flacco in that draft. Most teams didn't have a division II QB on their radar as a 1st rounder.
