I mean, Thielen and Chark are proven producers. Not to mention Hurst at TE. The rest of the guys, yea young potential. We do have proven production, maybe not not five or ten proven production, but middle of the pack surely.

Here is not a hive mind. I consistently call it trash no matter the context.

PFF is trash.

Ads and the bullshit screen covering banners that can’t be closed and block posts with no way to resolve the problem except refresh and hope it doesn’t happen again are two different things. I’m perfectly ok with scrolling past conventional ads but the ones here cripple the ability to read people’s posts sometimes.

Nah. If we were on the cusp of a Super Bowl then yea sure f them picks and cap space. Young is probably going to need a year or two then we can start pushing all our chips in.

I mean, he is wrong if the implication is that it’s more of an issue than any other QB. A couple batted balls in shorts is not indicative of anything. I imagine Brock Ossweiler (all like 6’7 of him) had a few himself, especially in his rookie year. The issue with Young’s size has always been durability rather than height and batted balls. Reich and others have already addressed how much easier it is for that to happen in the sort of practices they’ve been able to run so far.

On a more serious note, Blackshear looked good in his limited snaps last year. Hope he gets more opportunities this year. Doesn’t help he’s not exactly complimentary to Sanders’ running style though.

Oh no, Joe Person thinks Young’s batted balls are something to keep an eye on

Probably a misclick, happens to me all the time when I’m on my phone in poor reception area. The pop up lags and I click the wrong reaction.

Cam Darnold (from last year) Dalton Heinicke PJ Allen Baker Bridgewater

Boger, Blakeman and Hochuli are on the Mount Rushmore of bad refs. All three just horrid.

By the time it will have been voted on he’ll have had four months to earn it. I think he will, everything put out so far makes it sound like he’s earning the respect of everyone on the offense. The extra studying and things like that will be noticed by his teammates.

No way we spend money on a RB (or WR) when our CB group is getting thinner and thinner and there are other positions where the gap between what we have and what we could sign is much larger than RB or WR.

I’ve seen this signing singled out from a couple different outlets. I am totally ignorant about this guy but hopefully he can be the partner in crime to Brown that we really haven’t provided a DT since we foolishly let Star go.

Same old same old.

Yea 3rd down backs are usually the ones that can catch. Hubbard might have the worst hands on a RB in history lol (I’m only half joking)

.

He had some good runs last year but it was more on the OL than him. He’s an ok 2nd/3rd RB but easily replaceable

I hear Emmitt Smith is looking for a team, I’m just saying.

I’m with you in general in this thread but I’d still have to put Burns behind CJ and Hardy and maybe Rucker. Still plenty of time for him to rise in those ranks though.

Peppers disappeared all the time, as all pass rushers do. The best of the best all time average barely more than one single sack a game. And even if you actually look past just the sack numbers, which you always should, pass rushers “disappear” all the time without any impact on the game. Peppers especially, people would say all the time he was lazy and disappeared, but no reasonable NFL spectator would argue that Peppers wasn’t elite. I’m not saying Burns is on Peppers’ level, but he’s a lot closer than many here have the IQ to recognize.

Pay the man. He’s gotten noticeably better pretty much every year. Started out poor against the run, now he’s decidedly NOT a liability against the run. Better than average. His sack numbers (since that’s all some care about) have increased and will only increase with better coaching and scheme. He’s reliable and a leader of the defense.

Saw this on Facebook, too funny not to share.

My son is the same way. Mind boggling, cheese is an indispensable ingredient for so many things but he can’t stand it when there’s even cheese in the same vicinity as his food. Not lactose intolerant, he likes ice cream, but almost no other dairy products.

Lol. Finally an article that doesn’t act like the Falcons nailed the off-season and the Saints are a shoe in for the division. I still don’t understand why so many think the Falcons are in good shape. They got Campbell who is good but ooooold for a DL and nobody else worth a poo. They have two young weapons on offense still riding pre draft hype and haven’t produced in the NFL, nobody at QB, a good OL, a shiny new RB should help but there’s only so much impact they can have. That’s it. Sure their run game should be good but without balance the offense won’t amount to much and their defense still isn’t top half.
