I was not thinking about Ryan but rather, about Smith. He does not appear to be the guy I would want to bet my franchise on. Not the best QB in the draft IMO.
 
With respect to Ryan and the Bills, I can see them taking Ryan but not in the first round. If they pick another position player with their #8 pick, they will probably pick a QB in the second round. If Ryan is still available, I could see them talking him with #40. A new coach has to win early in the NFL or he will get run out of town. Marrone knows this and Ryan would certainly provide a quicker transition to the new O so maybe...
 
Some think the Eagles might take Ryan with their second round pick (36).  Ryan would fit Andy Reid's O like a glove as his only big weakness (long passes) is probably offset by his strengths in that system. That would be neat for Ryan, a life long Eagles fan.
 
I am thrilled for Ryan. When Ryan and the NFL was first talked about on this board there were very few willing to voice support for him as anything but a 5-7th rounder with backup role in his future. That is what I thought as well. Kudos to those who knew better and said so!
