What is it about this guy that has teams crazy about him?

He is the model for innconsistency. One game he will throw 3 TD's, the next 3 INT's. He shows potential but is clearly weak against fast teams, which every defense is in the NFL. I see this guys being exactly like Rex Grossman. Hes gonna go out one week and have a field day. The next he will have a passer rating of under 20

Overall i think this years QB class is loaded with talent. Im not saying star power or even starters, but there are about 5-6 QBs who look like they will have good careers as backup Quarterbacks.

Then theres the big 4 -Ryan, Brohm, Henne, Flaco.  I think Ryan busts compltely, Brohm and Henne end up being decent starting QBs in the NFL, and Flaco, well, God knows with him. He could be a Stud or a complete bust.

I agree. I do not understand the infatuation with Ryan.  He seems average and I would never allow him to lead any team I was a part of.  Not to mention he went to Boston College which really diminishes him in my eyes.

People are in love with him because of that fourth quarter comeback against va tech, and because he wore a tie to his combine interviews

I always thought that Brohm was better than Ryan and also never understood why teams felt the opposite. Last year, Brohm threw less interceptions and had just as many touchdowns as Ryan. Throughout his career, Brohm has outplayed Ryan. While I don't expect Brohm to be an NFL star, I think he could be like a Jay Cutler in the NFL. I'm not so sure about Ryan. He could be good or he could be the next David Carr.

Guys, watch him play. He can make all of the throws and he wasn't covered up with playmakers at BC. He reminds me of Carson Palmer and I would be surprised if he produces like Palmer!!!!

Ryan has always been the cream of the crop   and he will continue to be. Ryan is a winner that played inthe ACC...which happens to be one of the football confernce in america....I look for KC to take at #5 and he will lead the Chiefs to playoffs by not losing games and letting LJ win them. Ryan is better than Rivers...and Rivers can win

Thank you wildcats, Matt Ryan is the best proto-type nfl qb in the last couple years. He is really good and defenses just sit back for the pass and he still make plays by passing to average college wide recievers.  And Koala Jay Cutler is a future star so i dont know what your talkin about.

Wow, from the way you describe Ryan the Bears should be foaming at the mouth.  He sounds like another Grossman.

  This is a strange year in the draft.  Usually by now the cream has risen to the top and we all know who the top qb's are.  I don't see a true top fifteen pick in here.  Dennis Dixon is the overall best, but is probably a year away from being NFL ready health wise after the acl tear.  Whoever drafts him and lets him sit a year will have made the best investment for his team, and the steal of the draft since he probably won't go in the 1st round.

Ryan should rank highly in the class of QB's; he makes every throw, controls the huddle and makes quick reads.  His decision making is a concern but that is mitigated by the fact that none of skill players will be playing on Sundays.  His backs and receivers where all average at best which makes his numbers all the more impressive.

Not sure if any of you watched any of the BC games but his receiveing corp was possibly the worst amoung the ranked college teams.  Not one of them could consistenly get free leaving Ryan with consistently small areas to throw into.

I have no idea how he will be at the next level but I think he has more upside than Brohm.
