Where did you hear this?

Where did you hear this?

Just heard it on Boston Radio, not anything certain, but Arthur Blank said that he is not adverse in trading Ryan if thats what the football people want to do. He just fired Dan Quinn.

NO

 

[lopey]

They may tank for Lawrence.

One I would not give up picks for a QB who is 35 and on the downhill side, 2 his contract is big

 

[Northern_Cowboy]

Ryan has a 41m and 42m cap hit in 2021 and 2022, even if we wanted to we can't afford that kind of hit

 

[Carson]

Trade the next 4 years of 1st 2nd and 3rds for him

How much is Atlanta asking for him? You may find he is too expensive. But if he is on the block it must mean the Falcons are tanking to get Trevor Lawrence. Looking at the Jets schedule, I don't see them winning a game this year so Atlanta will have to lose out and hope the Jets wins some game by a miracle somewhere along the line.

Here's Ryan's contract........$41M dead cap for 2021. In other words, Blank can bark all he wants but Ryan isn't going anywhere for at least a couple years

no. HE IS A STATUE. In todays game you need a semi mobile QB. He isn't that. He's not very accurate anymore either.

 

[DFWJC]

If I had to have a Matt here, it's be Stafford.
Can't begin to imagine how much fun he'd have with an actual running back and these three WRs.
But he too is past his prime and expensive.

 

[Shane612]

Don't give Jerry any ideas.

 

[Cowboysheelsreds053]

They may tank for Lawrence.

0-5, they are off to a great start.

Matt Stafford, Matt Ryan.......I don't want any of them.

Those guys have played with Julio Jones and Calvin Johnson. Two of the best receivers I've seen ever play. Top 5 for sure. It resulted in nothing. They are highly flawed quarterbacks who put up stats. If Matt Ryan wanted a prove it deal like Dalton I'd be down but Matt Ryan is still capable of getting a big money deal.

 

[Vanilla2]

Been flirting with abandoning my fandom, but old habits die hard. I think Matt Ryan starting in Dallas would be the straw that broke my camels back.

 

[Hardline]

No need to discuss something that has absolutely no shot of happening.

 

[blueblood70]

they re talking a crazy trade scenario JimmyG and a 1 for Ryan and SF get Ryan for a another run at it?

But no i think Dalton will be fine , get back to using zeke and pollard more unless games get it of hand, play clean ball control offense with PA passing for bigger plays etc ..

whats the point really bring in ryan whos team is what 0-5 because they have no dfnse? bad coaching got fired , so ryan comes in to what pad stats and we give up assets for him?

makes no sense..

I don't know. I could see them trading the 23 mill base that he stands to gain in 2021 for the dead cap hit. That seems like a good tradeoff.
