I should be mad about Hurney trading next year's first for Brown and Goodson because that pick could have been coupled with another first to get a QB that makes Jake look good in comparison?

I swear the Rooney rule is the only thing keeping you guys out of an NFL front office.

Naaaa... I think with this years QB class we can get a steal in the early 2nd.....

Brown and Goodson are worth the $$$$$$

BUT

Everyone should be pissed off about the $$$$$$$$$$$$$$ pep cost us...

The only reason folks are mad about the draft is because we are giving the 49'rs a top 15 pick....

Could have been one hell of a QB...... bUt I would rather pay 2nd round $$$$ when he wont start in 2010 anyways (unless he just is insane in pre-season- which is VERY UNLIKELY)

Most of the people who are mad about that whole situation, I think, are thinking that any quarterback drafted in the first round is an instant franchise quarterback. It's easy to slip into that line of thinking when you see the Ryans and Flaccos, Sanchezes and Staffords of the league playing better as rookies than our vet is.

Of course, no team is guaranteed a franchise quarterback in the first round, and for every Matt Ryan there's a Ryan Leaf.

Still, if we were able to find such a guy in the first round, would he not be worth much more to the team than a pass rushing specialist and a No. 3 running back?

Don't get me wrong, I love both players and hope that they'll really develop into quality players for us. But Fox has failed to address the quarterback situation here, whether through the draft or otherwise.

I think the trials and tribulations of a 1st round QB are more complicated and include more variables than most people would like to realize and it isn't as simple as drawing a line in the sand and delegating them to the bust side or the success side.

No, we're pissed because we traded a top 10 pick for a 4th string running back and an average, undersized, backup DE

Dude, how the hell do you know how good Brown and Goodson are going to be? I'll bet you're one of the assholes that assumed that Sherrod Martin sucked because Mel Kiper didn't sing his praises too, right?

The point he's making is that right now...Everette Brown wouldn't be considered a top-15 pick. That's what he is at this point.

Gman also proclaimed the Falcons defense was going to be better than ours this year because of Lawrence Sidbury who is dominating to the tune of one awesome solo tackle on the season. You have to consider the source.

Dude, aren't you one of the assholes that swore up and down that we blitzed a lot in the first two games when in fact we blitzed a total of nine times? Yeah shut up! Lol! As of right now brown and goodson combined are not worth a first let alone a top ten pick. hopefully that will change. I doubt it though. Brown is too small to play a 3-4 DE and goodson can't hold onto the football plus he is a shitty return man

    • lol, that second part is quite literally one of the dumbest things ever. Having or not having guaranteed contracts has absolutely nothing to do with how much these billionaires have to pay.  Because there is a hard cap and a minimum cap spend requirement, and teams either use their cap or roll it over to use it all the next year, so the owners have to pay the same amount of money in the end no matter what. Having fully guaranteed contracts in the NFL would only hurt salary cap management, and thus would end up screwing over the team and its fan base when teams kiss on signings as they take up cap room that is needed to improve the roster. Look at the Browns with Watson, they gave him the fully guaranteed deal and all it’s doing is sucking up massive cap space now.  If they hadn’t done that, the owner would still be paying the same amount of money each year as that cap space would still be used elsewhere. If you want to argue for fully guaranteed contracts because the players deserve it, that’s an entirely different argument and a fair one to discuss.  But anyone against fully guaranteed deals isn’t doing it to argue for the billionaire owners.

    • Ryabkin could be the steal of the draft, he was a Top 10 pick heading into last season and had a rough year.  Lots of GMs passed on him because of that and his workouts. Pick has really high upside and Svech should be able to translate Rod tearing his arse a new one for making dumb plays since Svech has had several years of it.  🤣😂
