I think you have to take at least 7-8 OL in the next 3 drafts. Sounds crazy but I mean it. There isn't a single member of our roster on that unit worth keeping other than Moton. Not one. That is a hell of a rebuild.

This is reactionary. We have no idea how Brady or Deonte are long term. Brady did some good things today and had some rough patches. Sam is doing them zero favors also.

Sam is a competent middle of the road guy if most everything around him is solidified. The O-line and Brady’s play calling did him no favors, but a franchise QB has to go out and win games with deficiencies. Seldom in your career will everything be perfect. Sam just isn’t the long term guy here.

This is the same thing that was said about Little and Daley. The fact of that matter is, if you can't make it through this dumpster fire of an OL, you probably aren't going to amount to much. 

Not saying it is impossible but the odds are very low. And, why should we expect anything of Brown? He is a 6th round draft pick. Even making the roster was a win.

Because he comes from Alabama and his issues were weight. He’s down to 330 now. He is talented. Rhule needs to start playing the rookies more to see what we have with them going forward.

TBQH, he isn't that talented. He is a relatively one trick pony as an OL prospect. Brute strength and size with little lateral mobility or finesse. 

He may end up being a good 2nd string OL here but we only look at him with hope because of how poor the rest of the roster is.

This is shades of Daley. Hoping upon all hope our late round draft OL bails us out.

I’m not hoping anything. Just that your blanket statement of everyone needs to be gone except moton is reactionary. Play deonte and Brady see how they do going forward. This defense is championship caliber. If we wanna take advantage of that we can’t wait around for 3 drafts. We need a new qb. Gonna need to make some big moves. Cmc should be on the trading block.

We need to improve 8 of 9 players in that unit. That makes us a potentially great team. Luckily making significant improvements across the board shouldn't be that hard. About 4-5 of the guys that have gotten snaps for us wouldn't see the field for the majority of other NFL franchises. 

I can't say I would trade CMC. You need a high caliber player/pick(s) in return and his trade value is probably not that high. Banged up as he has been, I don't think you dump an elite player for the sake of dumping him. You need to get something of significant value in return. 

 

Also, no panic on the window here. We are insanely young on defense and I am not nearly as worried about our ability to continue to replace players on it as I have been with previous teams.

CMC definitely needs to be on the trade market. Today’s loss definitely sings to the tune of a 9-7 season and if the ability of your QB literally hinges on your oft-injured RB then it’s simply best to part ways sooner than later

No! He is the only reason we have 3 wins.

      Yeah, banking on his hands, vertical, height etc. Thing is we have a processor with an average arm, not a gunslinger so he might not even get those 50/50's to even show what he can do. XL has some of the same BY issues, if he doesn't get some 50/50 throws his way he's going to be stuck catching a lot of expected shallow crossers aka dinks and dunks

      Really like him. He will be great for Bryce. I hope he doesn't get a lot of push off calls as he did that on some of those catches.

      Everyone talks about how important it is to draft a QB in round 1 and have the "5th year option" I haven't seen it play out the well over the past several years. The good/great QB' aren't playing the first 5 years under their original deal.  After year 3 or 4 they are getting mammoth extensions. Having Penix take over in year 3 may actually save the Falcons some money over the next 5 seasons. I doubt they'd give him an extension after his first year as a starter if he took over the starting position after the guaranteed portion of Kurt Cousins new deal ends in 2025.   In terms of playing time, Penix 3 years as a starter would be ending with the 5th year of his rookie deal (assuming his option was picked up). The money Penix would be making in year 5 of a rookie contract would be significantly less than the upper echelon 5 year starters are making now.
