What I Am Thinking

Looking at a lot of mocks and I think it is pretty safe to assume Cyrus nor Moses will be available at 28. 

 

So that is gonna leave us with two likely options. JuWuan James and Joel Bitonio. 

 

Out of these two I am unsure who I would prefer. First impression is James as I think he has more upside, just needs good coaching. 

 

I think there are two darkhorse here to consider as well. 

 

Allen Robinson

 

and

 

Jason Verrett 

 

I would be pretty upset with Verrett as I simply am against drafting CB's in the 1st who are not physical specimens / all world players esp considering we are in dire straights with regards to OL and WR . With a great pass rush you can plug and play with your DB's for the most part and be ok. 

 

My ideal scenario would be to double dip on OT the first two rounds (assuming Fleming not on the board in the 3rd when we pick) . 

 

I actually think people will be pleasantly surprised with McNuts and King this year. Then look to sure up the WR corps next year.

His knee has been cleared and he was a top / elite OT prior to the health concerns who just wrapped up an All American season. 

 

I don't think that makes him a lock to be picked higher than 28.  Teams are still going to be worried about the knee.  Star's issue checked out last year yet he still fell.  GM's outthink themselves all the time.

      Moton extension. 2 more years, $44M

      By Loyalty4Life · Posted

      In your opinion. What do you think Moton's true value in contract, dollars and guarantees? If we had not extended him, what is your plan for RT in 27 and 28? How important are good offensive linemen for our current offense? How much value do you put on protecting Bryce at this stage of his career? How difficult in general do you think finding above average tackles in the NFL is?

      Falcons with Major Offensive Line Injuries to Start the Season

      By Seltzer · Posted

      The Falcons have 2 significant offensive line injuries to start the 2025 season. Right tackle Kaleb Mcgary (who is the blindside protector for Penix since he is left-handed) is going to miss significant time, and it's looking more like it may be all season. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/falcons-expect-kaleb-mcgary-to-miss-significant-time https://x.com/BKsquared7/status/1959285822236107013. Also, the top backup and swing tackle, Storm Norton (cool name BTW) is having ankle surgery and may miss half the season. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/falcons-ot-storm-norton-out-6-8-weeks-after-ankle-surgery I don't root for injuries, but its also hard to be too sympathetic given how badly injuries have hit us in recent years. We definitely need to get that W in week 3 for our home opener at BOA. Despite our collective frustration at not being able to attend TC and then having boring preseason games, ultimately the most important objective of the preseason is to enter Week1 healthy, and we have at least done that. Hopefully the depth we think we have at Oline either shines through or isn't needed. Many other teams are in a bad spot with their offensive lines before the season even starts. For once, we aren't in that situation.

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      By CRA · Posted

      That roster was billed as a super smart and strong unit for a young QB….until he sucked though.   it didn’t have superstars but it had proven vets that checked well all the safe boxes and it was universally agreed the Panthers were putting him into position to succeed. BY just doesn’t fit a traditional O because he isn’t built like a traditional QB.  And he still doesn’t.   CJ Stroud would have had more success here than Bryce with that cast.   CJ just has the tools that fit the NFL more easily.  Young can find success but I have always argued it would take a Bryce centric plan (which we have never attempted IMO)
