Although, frankly, even if he's not elite, at this point I'd rather have a really good QB like Ryan than an elite anything else. It's silly to try to win in today's NFL with Matt Cassel's and Brady Quinn's and Ricky Stanzi's. What I wouldn't give for another Trent Green, even. And a chance at a #1 pick and the opportunity for something more? How is it even a question? Draft the goddamn QB already... |

I don't know if Atlanta will win in the playoffs this year but I'd still take Ryan in heartbeat. |

I really don't understand why people say Smith is not a #1 pick guy. If you compare his stats to Andrew Luck Smith is really better.
For his career he as thrown 2 less picks while throwing it almost 400 more times. His completion percentage is identical to Lucks. I'm not trying to say Smith is as good as Luck, no way. Luck is the next great NFL QB.....a Manning, Brady, Montana type QB. But, Geno Smith has put together a very, very good college career and is the only person who should be considered for the #1 pick. |

Neither of them has played particularly well in the postseason, but one of them has one because of their defense more often than not. Until this season, they've both been solid game managers and not much more. Now, Ryan seems to have taken a step forward this season and that's what he needed to do to be considered truly "elite". |

Every one of the teams Ryan has lost to in the playoffs have all made the SB

bullshit. Geno Smith is a legit #1 overall pick and we better take him.

Not that he won't have some work to do. But he's had a remarkable college career. |

Guess they had enough problems that a bad draft pick didn't seem to weigh on the mind of my friend thats a Dolphins fan...though this is the same guy who was PISSED when they passed on Quinn. |

So Ryan is playoff caliber, but not Super Bowl caliber.

However, when you look at him and then look at Matt Ryan, THAT is ultimately what makes it a horrible pick. |

alex smith has won a shit load of his last games. we'd only need 2 middle linebackers, 2 safeties, a corner, a passrusher, a center, a WR, and a running back all selected in the first 3 rounds to emulate the 49ers
