I wouldnt exactly say the thought is ludacris and I think that he comes a choice if the brain trust doesnt like Beck. They could call him and say hey well take u number 1 if u sign a contract like this if not then well look at someone else because we need our qb signed day 1.
I strongly disagree with that. It would have to be much more than just not comfortable with Beck. Ryan is not even Top 10 material according to alot of sites. Because he is possibly the Top QB inflates his value but the fact remains we have plenty of holes to fill and we're not gonna take him just because we might need a QB. We need to take the BPA and luckily from what we have heard the PTB strongly believe it starts up front. Granted Sparano also mentioned a great QB, but Ryan is definitely not it IMO.
I think there are three players who represent good value at #1 Overall.
Glenn Dorsey
Matt Ryan
Chris Long
Don't be fooled by the high interceptions numbers. Many of those were not his fault. Plus, he did throw the ball almost 700 times, so his interception percentage was actually around 2%, which mirrors many of the best quarterbacks in the country.
He is accurate, fearless, he makes good decisions, he moves well in the pocket, he can make all the throws, and he does have that "it" factor which allows him to extend the play and make those around him better.
Don't be surprised if he gets strong consideration. He would from me.
