Atlanta just committed $72 million over 6 years to the #3 overall pick, $34.75 million of which is guaranteed. That's quite a lot of currency to toss at a guy that's yet to throw a competitive professional pass, but then I guess that's the way things fly these days. The Raiders gave Jamarcus Russell $32 million guaranteed last year, though he went #1 overall. Still, I have to wonder: Is Ryan simply Arthur Blank's and the Falcons' rebound after the devastating Mike Vick breakup? Either way, somewhere Tom Condon is smiling.
