Yup.. been saying this for a couple weeks now.. I wouldnt' be shocked if Ryan is not picked at #3 and falls to 6 or 7.. this is where the jets and pats will take offers from other teams..

And Lets not forget Brohm. He's starting to move up.. Actually I don't think he fell at all. His stats last year were his best.. I think the media stirred this up.. He'll be a top 10 pick..

While it sounds reasonable that if Ryan starts to slide that there will be teams trying hard to trade up for him, the slides of Aaron Rodgers and Brady Quinn are reminders that it is no sure thing. Teams have become more hesistant in recent years about making the financial commitment needed to a QB that they aren't positive is a franchise guy.
