Polished quarterback just wants to find out where he’ll be playing next season
It’s an annual rite of passage, it seems. A top-rated college quarterback has to face the gauntlet leading up to the draft, and it’s no different for Boston College’s Matt Ryan. Despite a decorated career, leading BC to one of its best seasons in recent years and emerging as this year’s top-rated quarterback in the draft, Ryan is starting to see his name slip ever so slightly down draft boards. Why? He’d like to know just as much as you would.
Ryan isn’t sulking as the draft gets closer, though. Instead, he’s looking forward to finding out which team he’ll suit up for — and he’s blogging about his experience along with Virginia DE Chris Long with Sprint. Cell phone carriers can read Ryan’s and Long’s blogs, follow the action on Draft Day and get updates and analysis throughout. Ryan, meanwhile, spent a few minutes chatting with PFW about likely not being a Dolphin, hanging out with Doug Flutie, his best Brett Favre story and what he’ll be wearing in the green room … even if he’ll have to spend a little while longer in there than he originally had hoped.
Good read

PFW: You made it known at the Combine and since then that you would be very interested in being a Dolphin, and yet it looks like that’s not going to happen. What did you think when it became clear the Dolphins were looking in another direction with Jake Long or Vernon Gholston?
Ryan: Uh (laughs). I guess it’s kind of the same as everyone else. Jake (Long) and Vernon (Gholston), I know those guys pretty well. I have had a chance to work out with them. And both of those guys are great guys, so I am excited for them. You know, you just don’t know what’s going to happen though. There’s a lot of speculation. There are a lot of things that are going on. There are a lot of different things that can happen between now and next Saturday. It will be interesting to see how it plays out.
That's right Matt. Keep the faith. Lots can happen between now and next week. I'm telling you I love the fact that all the attention is on Jake and Vernon right now. I think this is going to be one of those classic bait and switch draft picks. The person you're not hearing anything about is the guy they want -

The only other QBs that I wouldnt mind drafting but not before the 6th are Bernard Morris and O'Hara. Otherwise I say just wait until free agency and bring in Morrelli, Ostrander or Keller and hope Lee can coach them up in a few years -
