The ringer draft guide

[mrcompletely11]

They always do a good job evaluating the top prospects.  Their mock draft is worst case scenario for us however.

Well we NEED that position as well.. 

[panthers320]

If thats how it plays out in front of us, I absolutely want to trade back.

I havent seen enough of Slater but from what I read he may have to move inside. If that is the case, #8 is too high for a guard/center.

Rashawn Slater is not even close to worst case scenario lol

[SOJA]

But the Huddle assured me there was no way 4 QBs could be taken by our pick

I meant worst case in the qb sense.  I think if the draft falls like that we trade down and get more picks

[ForJimmy]

If we draft him and land Newman in the 2nd/3rd, I’ll be able to handle it.

I still highly doubt ATL drafts a qb, that would be just a dumb pick

[SmokinwithWilly]

Better question is, IF the first 4 QBs are gone by 8, who are teams going to trade up for? It's easy to say trade up, but is there someone there that is going to demand the capital required to move up into 8.

No Effing way do we take another tweener in the box LB/S, in the same mold as Chinn, with Wilson and Lance still on the board.

That means Slater, both top corners,  2 of the top wr's, pitts, and the best pass rusher are all still on the board.  Thats a desirable pick for a franchise

It's not a dumb pick if you think your future QB is there. They know that Ryan is there at least one more year. New coach takes his QB, let's him sit behind Ryan for a year which is not a bad thing, jettison that contract in 2022 and start off with "your" guy.

Its dumb if they pass on some top defensive help (which they desperately need) to get a guy that has to sit for 2 years.  It doesnt make sense.  ATL is not that far off talent wise and they sure as hell dont need a qb.

 

And his cap hit is pretty substantial for the next 2 seasons.  Much like the Packers drafting love, this would make zero sense
