Quarterback Joe Flacco was invited to participate in the 2008 NFL Scouting Combine that took place February 21–24, 2008.[50] Flacco was selected to play in the 83rd East-West Shrine Game that took place on January 19, 2008 at the University of Houston's Robertson Stadium,[51] but declined after he was invited to play in the 2008 Senior Bowl that took place on January 26, 2008 at Ladd-Peebles Stadium in Mobile, Alabama.[52]

Flacco was selected by the Baltimore Ravens in the first round (18th overall) of the 2008 NFL Draft.[53] Flacco was the only Blue Hen selected in the draft, but three other players signed with NFL teams as undrafted free agents. Offensive guard Rich Beverley was signed by the Washington Redskins,[54] offensive tackle Mike Byrne was signed by the Miami Dolphins,[55] and running back Omar Cuff was signed by the Tennessee Titans.[56]
