Interesting rumor out of STL....(Matt Ryan)

The value chart shows the Falcons package to be worth 1510 on the chart, while the 7th overall pick is worth 1500.

Interesting, to say the least.

Could this scenario be why KC has shown so much interest in Ryan? Could it be that they want Atlanta to not take a chance with this and take Ryan at 3, and hopefully drop Dorsey to us at 5?

Or could it be that we are considering drafting Ryan? If you are going to invest in a QB it only makes sense to show a bit of interest in him.

I'd have no problem with that. But I would think if KC REALLY wanted him they wouldn't have sent everyone from the front office to check him out. You'd think if he's really the guy they want they'd keep that a little closer to their chest.

I actually don't agree with that because the only team that would take him ahead of them is Atlanta, the Chiefs sit in that "what's gonna fall to us spot" so they don't have to smoke screen that much...

It makes no sense to tip your hand, especially not to the degree the Chiefs were with that dog and pony show they pulled at his BC workout. They're not going to draft him, they probably won't get the chance to begin with.

There were also two other guy there the Chiefs may have been checking on. Cherilus could be there at the top of round 2, and Silva could be a late round pick that could be a player. Silva's play sort of reminds me of Sanders from the Colts.
