Default Matt Ryan now makes more than Tom Brady

That's messes up .. no wonder we need a new deal.

Falcons sign QB Matt Ryan to 6-year, $72M contract
http://ap.google.com/article/ALeqM5h...yyoxwD90PK9483

ATLANTA (AP) — Matt Ryan signed a $72 million, six-year contract with the Atlanta Falcons on Tuesday, ending concerns that prolonged negotiations could threaten his chance to become the starting quarterback as a rookie.
Ryan, the No. 3 overall pick in last month's draft out of Boston College, is guaranteed $34.75 million. His guaranteed money is $4.75 million more than that given to Jake Long, the No. 1 overall choice who also is represented by agent Tom Condon.

I;m pretty sure Tom wouldnt trade his 3 rings for that 72m

However that is a ton of money for an unproven guy. Hopefully for the Falcons he doesnt end up performing like Craig Krenzel or someone along those lines

Yup ....

I doubt Ryan will ever see one with the Falcons.
Perhaps when he's a Patriot 10 years from now.

They'll find out Randy can't run consistently anymore. He'll drive [Tom] Brady and [Bill] Belichick crazy. This is just my personal opinion from what I saw: He's losing his legs. He's becoming an old man fast.

Chris Long should be very happy about this.

Yeah, no crap.

On the other hand, why is this stuff censored at all?

Why on earth would you compare the number three pick and first QB taken in this year's draft with Craig Krenzel, a fifth rounder who came 145 picks later?
