I'm not so sure these teams considered Lynch as a " 1st rd value" as much as they knew they would have to grab him in 1st rd. Some Gms have said if these Qbs were in the Mariota and Winston draft, Lynch would of been a 3rd or even 4th rd pick on their qb rankings.Loved listening to that interview this past weekend. Just goes to show the homework they put into all these players and even all the other teams in the league to figure out what is true and what is not of what other teams will do. I do think at least 3 teams have been confirmed to have been after Lynch and competing with the Broncos to move up. The Chiefs, Cowboys, and Browns have all been pretty well linked to such an idea. So shows other scouting departments really liked this kid and found him to be of 1st round value.
I am shocked that the Jets though were not interested. From what I have read they had him as a 3rd or 4th round value. To me either they think Fitzpatrick will sign back with them at some point or they really did just not think he would be ready in time for what they need him to be.
