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.
http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/200...21/mmqb/1.html 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. |

Thats exactly why hes projected high, hes the best OT in the draft. Much like Ryan, OT's and QB's will always be projected to go high because of thier position, not thier skill.

Here's the thing that gets me around here. I read post after post after post that Russell sucks cause he's dumb despite all his ridiculous physical tools. Ok Ryan doesn't have the same tools but his are pretty good but he's smart and I see people bag on him... Well in that case what the **** do you want? Make up your mind otherwise you are saying you don't like any kind of QB prospect unless he's a once in 10 years guy. |

Noone is overvalued more than QBs. Long has been kicking ass for years, and would be picked top 5 in almost any draft.

I just don't think Long is nearly athletic enough to be a LT, I don't see it. His flaws are athletic flaws, you can't fix those.
The last thing I want is to draft our own personal Robert Gallery. |

Well, this year is our best chance in decades to snag one, and all people want to do is bag on him. hahaha

The blind faith in Croyle around here is pretty maddening at times when he is still what everyone knew he was, a guy who gets injured when someone breathes on him. |

Ah yes lets compare Ryan and Leaf despite them being nothing like each other, just like the guy who kept bringing up Alex Smith.

To compare Croyle to a guy who will be draft in the top 8 spots is laughable. It really is. I think people are blinded with Croyle's decent mobility and cannon arm. Never mind the fact all the other attributes in question. 1 - Injury Prone (due to lack of size and/or toughness) 2 - Touch? (have you seen this guy throw a screen pass?) 3 - Decision making (yes he's young but it's still in question) |

People are citicizing Croyle's decision making but are defending Ryan's? 56 TD to 37 INTs in college isn't very good.
