Joe Brady to Atlanta likely?

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports Saints VP and Assistant GM Terry Fontenot is the favorite to become Atlanta's GM.

The Falcons first interviewed Fontenot in mid-December and clearly haven't looked back. Although a deal can't officially be finalized until New Orleans' postseason run comes to an end, Fontenot is expected to put pen to paper the instant he's allowed to. Panthers OC Joe Brady is also reportedly Fontenot's first choice as head coach.

Also, who on our staff will Joe Brady bring with him to ATL? 
 

Crazy to think our team has lost so much on offense considering CMC was out all year and Teddy Two Yards was checking down like his shoes were untied. The NFL truly is a mysterious thing...

Arthur Smith has been interviewed twice and different SPECULATION is that Fontenot has a deal in principal and is the one pitching him. So who knows.

Though could easily be interpreted as due diligence on a backup plan as they wait on Fontenot to be finalized.

Funny thing, some of the guys who already took college jobs have an out in their contract that allows them to leave for a pro position.

As far as guys that are still here, DB coach Jason Simmons was getting looks as a DC.

    • To kick this up, The Athletic has a really comprehensive piece out where pretty much all QB questions are addressed. It is worth seeing.  https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7083539/2026/03/04/starting-quarterback-projections-free-agency-draft/?source=user_shared_article I’m putting something specific here but it should have a thread or something. It is an extensive exercise.  This is a dense write up with a lot of column inches used, about the Jets and Murray and Reich, all this stuff.. then it goes to backup QB and there is Dalton.  I am pasting that part: As for Dalton, Reich is installing the offense he was trying to run in Carolina in 2023 before he got fired, and Dalton was with the Panthers then; he’s an ideal option as a veteran backup to replace Taylor. Reich said this about Dalton in 2023: “The way he's throwing the football, the way he works through progressions, the way he handles the operation. … Since day one (when) he walked in the door, I'm like, 'This guy is starter-worthy.' You guys know I've said that all along. He's, in my opinion, one of the best 32 quarterbacks in the world.” ——— That’s true love lol. I never heard any of this. Pretty crazy I think, considering how the year went.   Anyway the dream is not dead. . 
    • The Seahawks traded for wide receiver/returner Rashid Shaheed at the trade deadline. He proved to be a key acquisition. Shaheed returned a punt and a kickoff for touchdowns in the regular season and had a 95-yard kickoff return in the postseason. Shaheed, though, is scheduled for free agency. So, the 12 games he played, including the postseason, might be the extent of his time in Seattle. Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that Shaheed and the Seahawks are not close to an extension, and the expectation is that the two-time Pro Bowler will hit free agency. Shaheed has 153 receptions for 2,243 yards and 12 touchdowns in his four-year career to go along with three punt return touchdowns and a kickoff return touchdown. He ranks 13th on PFT’s top-100 free agents. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/report-rashid-shaheed-appears-headed-to-free-agency
