He was probably the best player available, and Matt Ryan's talent was definitely a reach at three. With three thrid round picks at the start of the day, the Falcons could have gotten Brian Brohm, who I believe is just about as good as Ryan, and still gotten possibly the best player in the draft. Instead, they reach for Ryan and trade up almost 15 spots for a player that has had injury problems in Sam Baker, who they probably could have gotten without trading up anyway. Terrible job by the Falcons I think. I believe Dorsey should have been the pick. He was probably the best player available, and Matt Ryan’s talent was definitely a reach at three.
