It depends on which ASJ you're talking about. 2012 ASJ sign me up! 2013 ASJ that looked out of shape, disinterested in finishing blocks and sloppier as a route runner? Meh...

The problem is that 2012 ASJ is likely a top 15 lock. There's definitely a price to pay for being NFCS Champs and picking 28.

Absolutely agree. Which is why if Gettleman thinks he's getting 2012 ASJ at 28 he could easily be the pick. It's amazing how much of a night and day difference it is.

After much thought and knowing that we will go BPA since Gettleman never lets us forget it, I believe its down to Ebron or Sua-Filo.  Those two will be the unquestioned best at there respective positions.  Having a guard as dominant as Sua-Filo will allow us to confidently move Chandler to tackle (hes been told to bulk up for such a move apparently by the FO).  If we get anything out of Kugbila its a bonus, hes a 4th round pick the fact that people expect him to just come in and start next year is crazier than Bell playing LT.  So I agree with Voth we will not take the 4th or 5th best tackle, but we may take the best Guard..

Some would be disappointed but I think he would make great defense even better. Better than reaching for OT or WR. Could see top CB going here as well

 

I would be pissed if we chose another LB with our 1st pick. That would make it the 4th linebacker we chose with our 1st pick out of our last 9 1st round picks which is ridiculous!

I think a big reason why Hurney always hit on his 1st round picks was that he chose positions with extremely low bust rates like RB and LB with most of them.

At this point i would be extremely dissapointed with anything else than a WR, provided all the top talent isnt off the board at pick 28.

      Falcons with Major Offensive Line Injuries to Start the Season

      By Seltzer · Posted

      They traded away their 1st next year also to get James Pearce Jr. Really hope this blows up in the Falcons face. I don't care how it happens, I just want to win the division this year. Zero sympathy for other team's issues. And our pass rush looks like it needs all the help it can get.

      I would have released him this season, tbh and worked with Christensen out there.

      Level Of Enthusiasm Going into Game 1

      By Seltzer · Posted

      10/10. We're due for some good luck, and I think this team is much better than what we've had the last 2 seasons. Defensive injuries could derail us b/c our depth there is still questionable. Still worried about the pass rush getting pressure without blitzing. Pleasantly surprised by the secondary and run defense.  Dan Morgan has done a lot to resurrect this roster from the deplorable position Fitterer left it in by showing some scouting chops with hitting on these guys drafted in the later rounds or UDFAs. Lathan Ransom & Corey Thornton both look like they fit this scheme and the NFL isn't too big for them.  I'm as excited for the rookie trifecta of T-Mac, Scourton, and Princely as I can remember. On paper, this offense is the most talented since 2021, maybe 2017, and maybe 2015. None of that means this team will produce any better, but this team has offensive talent & depth like we have rarely had in team history. If you don't believe me, go Google it. We've had some awful offensive collections overall in many years, to varying degrees mitigated by superstar talents like Steve Smith, Christian Mccaffrey, or Cam Newton.  I honestly think the collective offensive talent in 2025 may be better, but Cam was so otherworldly in 2015 & 2017 that he covered any flaws. Seriously, though, Cam doesnt get enough love for 2017. I think that may have been his best season. In general, Cam doesn't get enough respect IMHO. Both in college and in the NFL, Cam took teams that without him would have had no chance and won. True definition of a guy who elevated his team. To be clear, I am in no way am I saying this team will be better than 2017 or 2015. My point is that the offensive talent is there on offense if Bryce can unlock it.  I've been a Bryce supporter, but there are no excuses not to perform with this group. This isn't the disaster we gave him in 2023 or a new scheme like in 2024 where I think he hadn't mentally removed from his rookie season to start. I dont know how you couldnt be excited about that. And we still compete in a division that isn't insurmountable. I got got in 2023 like most of us in buying into the team propaganda, but in general, I think I'm pretty realistic about the team. I knew in my heart we would be bad last year. I wasnt expecting the defense to be that bad or Bryce to start off that poorly, but I had no expectations whatsoever for making the playoffs. And I genuinely think we will be competitive all year this season. I think we win 8-9 games and compete for the division. I think the ceiling is 11 wins, and the floor is 7. The good news is after next week, we will all be proven right or proven wrong. Keep Pounding!
