Since 2008, Atlanta spent the #3 overall pick on Matt Ryan, traded two second round picks on Sam Baker to protect him (#34, #48 & #103), a second round pick in 2010 for Tony Gonzalez (#50), then traded for Julio Jones to help him even more and spent #27, #59 and #124 in 2011 and #22 and #120 in the 2012 draft.
That's two 1st rounders, four 2nd rounders and three fourth rounders to help out Matt Ryan.
Since acquiring Ryan with the #3 overall pick in 2008, the Atlanta Falcons have won exactly
ONE playoff game.
How ANYONE could believe that the Miami Dolphins would have been better off with Matt Ryan as their QB, especially without giving up an absolutely egregious amount of picks in order to surround him with talent, is beyond me.
