Peter King: Herm will draft Matt Ryan to buy himself another year
 

I still doubt the Chiefs will take Ryan, but this is an interesting rationale for why they might and this is totally in line with the piece of garbage that Herm is.

Kansas City. Boston College QB Matt Ryan. Just a hunch, though they'll have trouble passing on Michigan offensive tackle Jake Long.

Strange thing here. At the combine, Carl Peterson told me the Chiefs loved Ryan, but there was no way they could take him because of their needs elsewhere. (Offensive line, I'm guessing.) Then they sent half the front office to his workout the other day at BC. Methinks Carl does not want to be the man to pass on the guy he thinks will be a franchise player. The other thing this does is buy coach Herman Edwards one more year of rebuilding. Even if the Chiefs go 5-11 this year, they couldn't whack Edwards until after they got a really good look at Ryan.

I for one, hope the Chiefs do draft Ryan if hes still there.

But why couldnt Herm be fired?? Other organizations do it all the time. Only the Chiefs...sigh..

Hopefully 5-11 is enough to whack Vermeilfan88.

Ha! If we take a QB in the 1st we will not win 5 games. As a consolation, I guess that means we can draft Oher with the #1 pick in the 2009 draft.

To me is sounds like that's more of a ploy by Carl to save his own a$$ rather than Herms.

Anyways, it doesn't matter. Regardless of how it effects the timeline on rebuilding (we're going to stink next year anyways), if Matt Ryan is the highest guy on their board when they pick at 5th then they should take him. If he's not, then pass.

King's an idiot.

I'd rather that than Clady.

Peter King is an idiot... Ryan won't be there,

King's AND idiot

get it right

If Atlanta doesn't take him he's going to be.....it's more conceivable than I think some realize.

so true.....

It doesn't matter who we have at QB if he spends the entire game RUNNING FOR HIS LIFE.

These goddamn idiots better concentrate on the line.

:cuss:

7. I think I still haven't figured out how Brian Brohm could be rated a top-10 pick in 2007 and drop to second-roundville in 2008 after having completed 65 percent of his throws as a senior, with 30 touchdowns and 12 interceptions while playing for a new coach. Explain that to me. Someone. Anyone.

If Ryan is gone or they pass on him, i think the Chiefs would try and target Brohm in the 2nd. Either way, the writing is on the wall for the Chiefs: They know they cant rely on Croyle 100%.

They will not draft Ryan. The opening video montage on kcchiefs.com clearly shows that Brody will lead the Chiefs this season. Do you really think they are going to go to all the trouble to make that video just to change QB's? It would make them look all dumb and stuff...

I'd rather get that DT in the 1st if there or best quality...

2nd round if be fine with Brohm
