If I were him, I would.  He has been a good QB for them for over a decade now - face of that franchise.  And now you want his help to bring in your replacement?  Haha, screw that.  I'd tell any team interesting in trading for me that I wouldn't suit up...make the Falcons release me and eat that 50M in dead money

And the report that he was notified last week of this is now in major doubt. It’s why I have this conspiracy theory that all of this is fake and is just a way to pump up the trade value.

For what? Baker couldnt do poo in Cleveland with a loaded roster. He is a Darnold level QB. 

Do poo? They made the playoffs last season and came within minutes of beating the Chiefs and going to the AFC Championship. Darnold hasn't even had a winning season or made the playoffs.

Naw falcons need to be within the same ballpark as everyone else or they won’t trade him there. Texans still have some power here. DW threatens to sit next season and they go after his money.

the falcons don't have the quality young talent to add to the deal that carolina has is my point. Panthers can offer chinn, brown, horn, burns. Falcons can offer Grady Jarrett and that's about it

solid point. Baker could not deliver with the Browns even with their talent loaded team. 

And then packed it in within a day when the Browns explored a trade for DW. Big no thanks to Baker I would rather draft one than settle for that.

Ok he is a Jimmy G/Carson Wentz level QB who is about to need a new contract, i do not want to give up assets for that sort of a QB who is going to command a high dollar contract without deserving it. 

He is not worlds better than Darnold, maybe a little better.

    • This is a good take it really is to the point dc needs to let the world see the real byoung b/c right now everyone in the media and tepper has had blinders on when it comes to young.  Its hard to even know where the panthers are at skill player wise with such horrible qb play.  I doubt it but legette may be a probowl wr he just cant throw the ball and catch it.  I am just so sick of every excuse in the book for byoung.  LIstened to a podcast and the guy was going over how many different options byoung had on the int and all of them were ok except for the one where he threw an int.  He said the play could be run by a hs qb and they would typically make a good decision. 
    • I certainly have my complaints about Canales but I'm not ready to fire him yet for a couple of reasons. First and foremost, Tepper has made this one of the least appealing jobs in the league. Morgan and Canales are here to begin with in large part because guys higher on the wish list take other jobs. If you fire Canales you're gonna end up replacing him with another third tier candidate who wasn't being seriously considered by other teams with openings. That's just the reality of the situation right now as far as I can tell. Secondly, despite plenty of room for critique, we are 6-6 despite the worst QB play in the league. That's really damn hard to pull off in the modern NFL. Especially when your D isn't dominant. Our D is greatly improved but is still a slightly below average overall defense ranking 18th in yards per game allowed and 20th in points allowed. Going 6-6 with atrocious QB play and slightly below average defensive play is pretty damn impressive. Even more impressive when you also factor in that we're in the red on turnovers differential at -3. When you combine league worst QB play with slightly below average D and negative turnover differential honestly you'd expect to be in play for the #1 overall pick, not 6-6 and having just played a game that a win would have you leading the division. So yeah, even though I'm far from sold I advocate for patience with Canales for the time being. If you ask me if I'm bringing him back next year, I'm a yes barring a catastrophic meltdown down the stretch which admittedly is very much a possibility.
