ATTENTION! All Chris Long lovers, um, they are negociating with JAKE LONG and "VERNON GHOULSTON". :up:
The highlight of the draft broadcast the past couple years has been watching that year's anointed Golden Boy become increasingly angry, then perplexed, then desperate as he plummets down the draft board. Watching Matty Touchdown fall to #11 in 2006 and Dr. Quinn, Clipboard Woman fall to #20 last year is like MasterCard: priceless.
High comedy, indeed.
Yeah, hillarious. Try putting your heart, soul, countless hours in the weight-room, film room and classroom and then watch team after team pass on you while on national television. Try that and then tell me if it's so damned funny.

What are we going to do when Brady Quinn and Matt Ryan take up their respective places next to Tom Brady and Peyton Manning?
What are we going to do when Brady Quinn leads the Browns to the Super Bowl and becomes the MVP?
What ar we going to do when Matty Ice gets drafted by the Jets and then kicks our asses?
Please, I don't have one once of sympathy for Brady Quinn, and it was funny! How does it really hurt Quinn if was drafted later than expected. It won't change his ability to become a good qb, if he does become one.You make him out to be some kind of hero!
A lot people bust their butts every day with little or no recognition, and we're supposed to feel bad for a millionaire pretty boy because his pride was hurt on draft day.Tear wrenching! :sidelol::sidelol::sidelol:

To premise my comment, I am not someone who would draft Matt Ryan if I were the GM of the Miami Dolphins given the other talent available at other positions of need. That said, I don't see why someone who thinks Matt Ryan will be a great quarterback would be proven wrong simply through his draft position.
Last time I checked guys who are drafted number one overall don't always play to their billing. In essence, general managers make mistakes. Given that, someone who believe Miami should draft Matt Ryan will not really be proven wrong until he fails in the league, not if he were to slip in the draft.
Put it this way, there was a quarterback back in 83' who threw a ton of interceptions and had some questions related to possible drug abuse who dropped to the last few picks in the first round. Based on historic report, there were many who felt he would be a great, great quarterback in this league. Were they proven wrong on draft day when he slipped that far in the draft? No. The jury was still out and look what happened.
The same can be said here. Those that support Matt Ryan Leaf (as so many who have apparently not seen the man play call him) or as you say, those in denial, would not be proven wrong until he fails in the league. That is the reality of the situation.
