Not even worth a 1st.

Well we can scratch the Falcons off as serious division contenders then.

Yet they almost won the division this year with Mariota stinking it up,  the most dead money in nfl history (bc of Ryan and Julio) and a bunch of rookies/young players….they had 2nd youngest team in the nfl.

London had a good partial season.  But still has proven nothing.  He didn’t do anything more than Kelvin Benjamin did his rookie year.

Their OL improved.  But we’ll see how that last.  Their best OL is Matthew’s at LT who getting up there in age with a contract they talk about every year if they need to move.

True but no rookie WR has proven anything yet. Both London and Benjamin had more yards than Moore rookie year too. I like both London and Moore a lot though. 

No their best OL is easily their RG Chris Lindstrom who was not only the highest rated OL in football this past year but highest player graded player in football. Matthews was probably 3rd best on their line last yr.

And just look at the overall roster.  People bitch and moan about our defense.  But the fact is, we have a whole lot more to work with on that side, and it’s not Close.

We have a better OL in place (if Bozeman is resigned)

We have a Number 1 WR locked in.  We’re just in a better position now to drop in a QB.

Agree on defense but according to PFF, the falcons had the 5th best OL this year after being ranked 29th last year. Think Panthers were ranked 10th-11th this yr up from 24th the year before.

Drake London is also easily going to be a #1 WR. 333 yards in last 4 games after Falcons benched Mariota.
