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.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Nobody is giving up a 4th rounder for a backup QB And anyone who needs a starter badly enough to where Bryce would then be their starter, is such a bad team that they're not giving up a pick likely to be about pick 105ish overall, instead of just dealing with a bad QB situation for a season and then drafting one in a loaded QB draft next year. I'm looking through all the teams right now and can't think of a single one that would be willing to part with anything better than a 6th rounder. Barring injuries (and excluding the Panthers), there look to be 10 teams who don't know with 100% certainty who their starting QB will be in 2027... Dolphins, Jets, Browns, Steelers, Vikings, Colts, Saints, Falcons, Cardinals, and Rams. Of those 10...  The Rams know it will be Stafford or Simpson.  The Saints more than likely will be sticking with Shough unless he takes a huge step backwards.  So neither are giving up any draft picks for Bryce right now, just wouldn't make sense for either. Down to 8 Given their current QB situation of having multiple QBs they already need to evaluate between this year, the Browns (Shedeur/Watson), Vikings (Kyler/JJ), Colts (Jones/Richardson/Leonard), and Falcons (Penix/Tua), wouldn't be giving up a 4th (or maybe any pick) to bring in another QB to muddy the waters even more. Down to 4 Dolphins just signed Willis and wouldn't want to bring in another small Alabama QB who has struggled after just dumping Tua instead of just rolling with Ewers as the backup.   That then leaves the Steelers, Cardinals, and Jets left as it's clear none of them have any idea who their 2027 could be as of right now.  But the Steelers would for sure rather just see what one of the 2 QB's they drafted in the last 2 drafts could become than give up a mid round pick for Bryce.  Same goes for the Cardinals in taking Beck this past weekend. The Jets would be the most likely team to even consider taking him on, but I think it seems very apparent right now given them rolling with Geno and now talk of bringing in Wilson to be his backup, they're punting on QB this year to draft someone next year, so why give up even a mid round pick for Bryce?

      Where panthers draft ranked against Big Boards in 2023

      By strato · Posted

      Honestly I am not sure Pickett couldn’t step in for him. But I don’t see a clear easy upgrade and we are not KC with Alex Smith we are a team that hadn’t done poo for almost ten years and just made the playoffs. And looked good in the game. That stadium atmosphere on that day…. you know Tepper ate that poo up. Not one drink has been thrown in a while.  You had better make sure if you replaced him after that that you had a sure fire upgrade.

      Makes sense. If Bryce is ass this year, we are probably drafting our new QB next draft and sitting him behind Bryce for a year
