Yeah I’d be asking for a 1st round pick to recoup what they lost for wentz.

 

and again, falcons can’t because they’re giving up firsts for watson. I just don’t see how this is possible. Ryan just isn’t good enough to take on that contract unless you’re getting picks for it. It’s just doing the falcons a favor and why? Why should they do that. Maybe another team comes into the picture but I just don’t see it.

the only reason i can think of that the colts would trade for ryan is if they want the texans to get the worst possible return for watson, and the worst offer is by far from the falcons. It's not even possible their offer is competitive with the panthers offer

Yeah there is no way any team takes on 48 million for Matt Ryan...in addition to giving up picks.  Atlanta would have to eat at least half that contract, if not more.  And the other team has all the leverage here anyways, so I don't see any way Atlanta can eat 25M of Ryan's contract, take on 30M for Watson (depending on restructures), plus sign 2-3 weapons for him.

    • I am just saying that there are realistic alternatives to the Dan is totally Fitterer in all his opinions and incapable of his own mind. Because we don’t know what really happened.     And your job is to support your boss even if you aren’t 100% in agreement.  And further you do not publicly dissent.  Publicly meaning when more than just the two of you are around.    ISO believe he is doing Tepper’s bidding on a lot of things and I believe it was very likely as a new hire, in 2024.  If I were to speculate further I would think that Canales has a big say in the offensive evaluations and Dan might not feel like he should be flatly overruling him since he is not an offensive guy. Any differences of opinion, if Canales feels strongly about an evaluation or decision Dan would be more likely to go with Dave than to overrule.    But can’t claim to know anything with any certainty.    I do think Dan showed us some solid work in this draft.    I also am WTF no QB competition. But I know we agree that it wouldn’t take much to show Bruce up and it seems like they were avoiding that.   In the big picture of the developmental arc they may have decided on, maybe that was okay for year two. It will absolutely not be okay for next year. And Canales has brought Hookernin so that is a small move in the direction we wanted them to go.     
    • Just to be clear no one in the front office at the time before or immediately following the 2023 draft including Fitterer Morgan or Reich was saying Bryce Young would need the highest paid OL in the entire league which we now have just to look halfway serviceable.
    • Come on dude, he's only 2 spots below SB champ Hurts. That's awesome!
