1. Even at his age and with his injuries he's a much better DE than Hardy. He would be the starter.

2. He's not going to be on this team regardless so it doesn't really matter.

Correct on both counts.

Abraham would be the 2nd best DE on your team.

And aren't you guys over the cap?

CJ and Hardy. Both are younger and can stay healthy a full season. Sorry but Abe is a rotation guy for us not a starter.

I don't want him but if healthy I don't see how he wouldn't start. He is a signifantly better pass rusher than Hardy and Hardy is weak against the run. Hardy would be rotated in bc he needs reps to develop and Abraham needs rest...but I would think he would he the starting nod

and he might bring a few secrets about the Atlanta defense.

The Falcon's changed DC's (to Mike Nolan).

I get the feeling Mike Nolan's defense is going to look very different from Brian Vangorder's (not saying better or worse since that remains to be seen, but philosophy).

Don't think Abe will have any knowledge about that defense because I doubt they give him a playbook unless they know for sure that they're going to resign him.

No he wouldn't. I know PfF got everybody down on Hardy but he was a 1st year starter, with no offseason, learning a new system, and no TC (due to injuries). Cut the kid some slack. He did have 50 tackles and 11 pass def.

Abe doesn't start for us if he comes here.

I don't know what PfF is. I'm going on watching the guys my self.

I'm not criticizing him I'm stating what anyone who looks at it from an objective standpoint would see.

      Um, no, just no. Bills, Chiefs, Chargers, Ravens, Bengals, Texans, Eagles, Commanders are 8 teams that it's not even a debate, they aren't trading their QB for Purdy. Patriots, Broncos, Titans, Giants, Bears, Vikings, Falcons are 7 more teams with QBs drafted in the last 2 years that also would rather stick with them than trade for Purdy as they all have more upside than he does. Lions, Packers, Cowboys, Bucs are 4 more that would likely keep their QB's as well, age aside for Goff, Dak, and Baker. Panthers and Colts are two teams in the same situation, QB's who have both struggled and shown flashes to where the teams probably stick with them because they drafted them, but in a re-draft of all QB's, they probably take Purdy over the guy they currently have. Jags, Cardinals, Dolphins, are 3 more with QB's who probably have a higher upside than Purdy but come with their own question marks, so debatable if they'd take Purdy over who they already have. That leaves Jets, Raiders, Steelers, Browns, Saints, Seahawks, and Rams. Rams would take him over Stafford for the future of course, but not for 2025, and I'd think the Seahawks would take him over Darnold, but honestly not sure if they would take him over Milroe at this moment as they really like his potential and have him for 4 years really cheap. That leaves 5 teams that I see who would absolutely take him over their current situation right now, and a handful of others who MIGHT take him over their current guy, a far cry from your 20.

      The Bryce Trade is Finally Complete. Who Won the Trade? Panthers vs Bears

      By ForJimmy · Posted

      Agreed. Also as soon as they received the top pick in the next draft it was over. Bears won that trade. Gave up a top overall pick got one the next year plus pick 9, a couple 2nds, and DJ Moore a proven young WR. Had their 2024 pick from us be in the late teens or later it would be more debatable IMO.

      Option A:  Pay your starting QB starting QB money. Option B:  Look for a starting QB for 4-10 years (or longer) while wasting the talent at every other position.    How many of the top 20 QB's do you think are worth what they are being paid?   When you factor in the last year of his present deal his contract is really an average of 45 million per year which in today's QB market is a very, very good deal. I wish we'd had found a Brock Purdy to pay 50+ million a year right after we parted ways with Cam.  Ya'll go ahead and live in fairy tale land where good to great (much less elite) QB's are available to pay. Just the fact that they had the chance to pay Brock after the disaster of trading up for Lance is a testament that when you find a quarter back you can win with, complete in the playoffs and superbowls with, you pay him.
