Which WR will we draft in the 1st round?


Trill OG

With the Torrey Smith addition, I think it's safe to say we are done with WR in FA. The question is now with 3 speed WR's on the roster with Smith/Samuel/Byrd will that determine what WR we select in the 1st round?

Will Sutton be on the board, now that we need another big WR?

Who do we draft at WR?

Likely none unless Ridley is there. I'm thinking safety in first. And I don't think we're definitely done with WR in FA. Could still go after Watkins or Robinson and then he set at the position.

I highly doubt we throw big money at a WR now with Torrey on the roster. Maybe we can get another cheap vet like Mike Wallace.

Hurney said he was going to completely re-build the WR group. We were never going to throw big money at a WR. If the price is right, which it could be, we could still go after Robinson or Watkins. And Smith very well may not be on the roster day 1. Wallace is the most unlikely because his skillset and Torrey's are redundant. We still need a #1 guy, which Watkins and Robinson are.

    • 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?
    • 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.
    • 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)
