| Debate Series: Matt Ryan jersey vs. Kevin Kolb
Matt Ryan jersey, QB, Atlanta FalconsSexiness doesn't always sell, but fantasy footballers are still frequently fickle. Looking at the mid- to low-range No. 1 slingers for 2010 drafts, many are pointing to the Philadelphia Eagles' Kevin Kolb as the next upward-moving option. Why have so many forgotten about Matt Ryan jersey, who as a rookie in 2008 laid the groundwork for a promising fantasy career? Matty Ice warming for growth Matty Ice isn't skunky anymore. He appears fully recovered from the toe injury that knocked him out for a couple of games and caused him to stumble late last year. He has spent this offseason tinkering with his footwork and studying the mannerisms of Peyton Manning and other elite throwers. Even with the general step back in his sophomore year, Matt Ryan jersey found the end zone once in every 12.0 completions to pass for six more touchdowns (22) than his rookie campaign. It doesn't hurt to have Pro Bowl targets in wideout Roddy White (a top-notch deep threat) and tight end Tony Gonzalez. The latter was a huge red zone target in his first Atlanta season. Maybe the Falcons will have another weapon if the talented Harry Douglas (knee) can open up the underneath game. Kolb held a clipboard for three seasons. Heading into his third year in the league, Matt Ryan jersey is also entering his third year directing Mike Mularkey's balanced offense. The O still leans to the run, but Atlanta wants to take some burden of Michael Turner's shoulders; sticking to this plan puts Matt Ryan jersey in place for statistical growth. The OC has been focusing on improving the vertical department with more deep-pass and no-huddle setups during offseason workouts. Andy Reid's offense is kind to its quarterback's fantasy numbers. Problem is Kolb only started two games last season. In Week 2, he threw 51 times and compiled 391 yards but was picked off three times while playing catch-up against the New Orleans Saints. In Week 3, he went 24-for-34 with 327 yards and two scores ... against the always dangerous Kansas City Chiefs. This is a sound argument for your fantasy QB1? Kolb might have more weapons, but does he have the arm and awareness to take advantage of them? That isn't bankable this year. What about Michael Vick? Matt Ryan jersey's only PT threat is injury. Closing argument: Matt Ryan jersey and Kolb are being drafted in the same tier of upside quarterbacks. Despite his essentially run-first system, Matt Ryan jersey has a shorter statistical bridge to cross for approaching 4,000 yards. There's probably slightly more upside to Kolb because of Philly's aerial attack, but his value looks more system-oriented than talent-based. Give me the QB with enough starting experience to make a leap based on a better combination of talent and scheme. |
