Need two starters from this draft? Simple...

Round 1 - Safety

Round 2 - Running back

 

These are two positions that have a pretty high hit rate as far as starters as rookies. A safety in round one and a RB in round two would likely fill two positions of need immediately. 

Agreed, a G would be nice too.

With Matt Kalil as a liability, I wish we could find an OG starter, as hard as that might be. 

Wish we cut Kalil and tagged Norwell for 14 mil. I'd rather overpay Norwell 7 million than Kalil hoping he stays healthy to play at a level we could already do with out him, statistically speaking. We're over paying either way. But guess he's being rewarded for being a long term panther.

100mph toward cap hell. We'd have nearly $25M tied up into two players - one of which wouldn't even be on the roster.

*Oops! Realized you were likely talking about Ryan, not Matt. I think Ryan should've been released, period.

It's Hurney so we are definitely drafting a RB.

S in the first....this team and Rivera? I'd have to see it to believe it we never draft S's high.

Depending on how it goes obviously there could be several good options from OL, DE, S, WR at our pick.

I love Sony to death and agree with you on the need for another back and a FS But looking to 2019 with no Kalil brothers, A line with Moton, Turner, and Williams looks a hell of a lot better with a guy like Isaiah Wynn next to them. 

For me

1. Wynn

2. Bates/Elliott

3. Freeman

We need a plan for this line

    • 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)
