Am I the only one who thinks Atlanta will go QB?

The amount of mocks I’ve seen without anyone mocking them a QB blows my mind. Ridder isn’t the long term solution and if 1 of the 4 are still on the board I think you have to try

Super possible. I don't think they go into next season with Ridder penciled in at starter. Does that mean draft? FA? Trade? Who knows? But yeah, taking a QB in the 1st round is definitely very possible for them.

They have a lot of holes, I see them taking the best defensive player. Maybe they fall in love with a QB there, I can see it going either way but my best guess would be them taking a D.

Unless Stroud or Young fall (they won't) I don't like our chances at getting a franchise QB this draft, but I'd still try with Levis or whoever. We gotta just start throwing those darts out there on legit top prospects. Corral doesn't fit that bill. If whoever we draft this year sucks for 2 years, then try again and rinse and repeat until we solve the issue.

Then why draft him in the first place? You think they drafted him #74 last year to be a permanent backup?  I'm not aware of NFL teams that draft qb's every single year, but our fans think we and Atlanta should start a trend.

They figured at 74 it was good enough value to take a shot and see what the kid had. The same thing we did with Corral.

Not quite sure why this is such a hard concept to grasp when dealing with the most important position in all of sports

This. If you take a swing there and land a franchise QB you got a massive steal. If he ends up being a decent backup it's still a pretty good pick. If he's an outright bust it still doesn't hurt you all that bad vs. typical 3rd round pick expectations. If you think there's a chance the guy is a starting QB the pick is well worth the risk.

    • I am gonna believe it wasn’t us if the 4th round pick price is accurate. We needed 225 points to get from 19 to their pick. 875 at 19 to 1100 at 14.  Our 2026 4th was valued at 56 points I think. A future 4th has less value. So that wasn’t close to enough.    It would have taken our third and our fourth. Comes within a point of even.    Now, moving to their spot in the second round we could have done but after Miami took Rodriguez why would we? 
    • Yep,and Blake Miller have had more experiences than Freeling,Lions did not sigh a vet T like Walker,so they had to pick Miller.
    • I mean it's expected.  This is the NBA.  And they hate the Charlotte Hornets.  Flagg was also the guy "magically" given to the Mavs who lost Luca to the wildly popular Lakers.  Was always an uphill battle.  But the award is BS since it's not voted on before play-in starts. Kon probably lost because of the play-in as many people switched votes.  It was a regular season award, so this is some nonsense.  Kon also didn't have the luxury of taking 10 games off to rest up injuries like Flagg did.  If he did, he wouldn't have been nursing his back the last month.  I mean, screw him for being on an actual playoff team that matters.  Flagg took tons of shots a game, he was wildly inefficient.  Kon was a huge reason the Hornets made the play-in and turned the season around after Jan.   I think Flagg will probably be the better player long term, or at least the most impact.  But Kon should have won ROTY.
