This is what always got my attention with Irsay

where is it?

trading back might just make the most sense. there's going to be a whole lot of solid talent available the rest of the day and anyone we get at 39 won't be much better than who we are capable of getting later on. just not enough separation between the talent. there's just a lot of good players out there to be had, imo.

i feel the same way about all of them. Carr is an ok QB. he's solid. but he'll never be feared. falcons are going to have to play catchup once they realize that ridder won't get them anywhere. the bucs lucked out and had brady, which is the only way in which they have managed to be at all relevant in 20 years. they won't get another brady. i feel that we are going to own the NFCS for at least a couple years.

they win the first round anyways. there's still a lot more to go, but its going to be hard to top what they did in topping off that defense.

true. but he'll be walking into a situation where these guys are also going to be looking for another contract soon. small consolation, but i'm not a believer in ridder except that i don't mind him being the falcons QB for a while. i do feel like, though, if Young takes off like it's believed he will, i won't be worried by any other teams in the NFCS.

most likely edge or CB. i think the better value of the two right now is at CB, but they'll probably be wanting edge more.

that's what Cam was saying. the moment that he walks into the locker room, class room, practice field, game field, or huddle, you'll know that he's the leader. he's got that 'it' leadership factor. you know he'll give it everything he's got and that he'll go beyond what is expected of him in every situation and you'll want to do the same.

there were several directions the falcons could have gone that i was kind of worried about that would have made them much better. i was more worried that they'd start building up the defense more. jalen carter sitting there had me really nervous. they take bijan and i'm kind of...hmmm....he's good, but 1) i trust our defense to be able to contain him and 2) while they have added a little help to the dfense, obviously it's still not the priority it should be. i don't like them drafting bijan, but they could have gotten a few players who would have hurt us more.

they did to get their guy. they knew Young is the one and they did what it took to get him.

my bias is showing, but we got the difference maker we've been needing since Cam was torpedoed by Watt. we win there. but aside from that, the texans and eagles...fantastic moves for both of them. i mentioned a couple times that i thought the texans would try and trade #12 to move up and get their QB after drafting their stud D guy, but trading back up to #3 and having back to back picks really blew me away. happy that it was stroud because i like him. eagles getting jalen carter....the rich gets richer. and then picking up nolan carter. dude, that team is stacked on defense. but picking up Carter was a huge win for them. i saw micah parsons react to the eagles getting carter and it was priceless...

i think he was in shock. it has to be just the most surreal moment for any of them. no way to predict how it hits them to hear their name...or not to hear their name. i can't imagine.

definitely a cool moment. dude talked up their friendship a good bit. that just showed it wasn't just talk. genuine reaction. so happy for both of them and AR. feel bad that i'm just kind of 'meh' about Levis, though. i think we'll see great things from these top three dogs.

You find it strange because that's all you see ...a 5'10, 175lb QB. That's the problem. You cannot/will not see anything beyond that.

Not kidding around. You'll be gone. Don't start a thread for it, there's already one made. Don't try to break the news. Don't try to be awesome. Don't try to be a prick. You will be gone. Just an fyi.

Rich Eisen has been my preference for a long time.

Just out of curiosity is your pm box full?

Pats maybe?

It's one that hasn't been mentioned at all, but I'm not sure why.

Lol that's awesome. It will get some air play. Done by a grass seed company though. They got a financial dog in that fight. What's funny, though, is that we just moved into a new construction and I've got to do some work on the lawn so it looks like I know what brand I'm going to use. Go Pennington.

No. We all know about Caldwell.

Imo it's a bit more interesting than that but kind of fits with the theme going on when Reich was hired.

No. Lol lord no.
