The Matt Ryan trashing continues. Interesting FanNation blog entry on why a rebuilding team should not gamble on Matt Ryan:
Let’s not kid ourselves; this is a very weak quarterback class that will be lucky to produce a couple quality starters in the league, let alone a franchise quarterback. Matt Ryan exhibits good size, above average arm strength and accuracy, an over-rated report of his leadership abilities, inconsistent play, and an average ability for a quarterback to not fumble the football (6 fumbles over 68 rushing attempts and 21 sacks). If any team uses a 1st round pick on this guy, they will be making an expensive gamble; which I believe, will be an expensive bust that will ultimately destroy a rebuilding franchise and cost a GM and coach their jobs.
This post outlines some good reasons why Ryan would be a mistake as a top pick. Unless the Falcons know they are getting a future Hall of Fame QB, I think they should stay away from Ryan with the third pick.
