Kind of scary. Gonzalez pretty much made the falcons offense to me. They don't need another good tight end.

But then again, they waste all of their cap on offense and their defense remains the worst in the nfl.

julius thomas is a pretty average tight end if you take away his touchdown catches.

I hope the Falcons sign Julius Thomas. He turned down $8M per year from Denver last year so he's clearly looking for a lot of money, and I bet they pay him a lot. Peyton made him seem much better than he is. Good redzone target but has a whole lot of trouble staying healthy and is far from a game changer like Gronk or Graham.

Cam is a terrible QB if you take away his rushes.

Here's the part of the offseason where we rationalize why other NFL teams are signing available players to console ourselves

This.  He's a good TE, don't get me wrong, but I'd love to see the Falcons spend even more money on pass catchers while neglecting their major deficiencies - defense and OL.  They had the #5 passing offense in the NFL last year and the #32 defense.  So, yeah, PLEASE spend more money on pass catchers while neglecting the D!  I love it!

ATL needs to spend their money on a pass rusher...not another receiver.

If it's a player for the Panthers: "Pay the man! It's not my money who cares? Two TE sets!""

If it's a another team: "I hope they over pay and destroy their team!"

Better to JT then Greg Hardy

I don't think that's necessarily true at all.  A lot of us here were concerned about handing J. Stew a big money deal after DeAngelo already had his.  A lot of us here questioned the logic behind franchising Hardy last year tying up about 20% of our total cap space in our starting DEs. 

[WOW!!]

Dumb...

Top 5 all time passing numbers of any QB in history in their 1st four years in the NFL. .
