Should we draft 2 DT?

Dwan Edwards - 33 years old coming off his best season of his career. Can we really expect him to bring the same production again?

Fua - ....................enough said.

Krease - Was cut early and work his way back on the team. Can we depend on him as a starter?

Colin Cole - Jyles Tucker .......anyone. Is he a Camp body and do you really want to depend on him after being out of football for 11/2 years.

Nate Chandler - Undrafted FA last year.

Looking at this list Fellas we could use 2 DT.

Yes so as long as we never put a 1st round talent DT on the roster you're ok. Good.

Never is a bit of a stretch. Now is just not the time to spend a first round pick on a position that takes at least 2-3 years to develope. But hey you guys are the experts and ize be jus a simple boah dat don't know teh foozeball. You guys kill me, lol

I mentioned this on one of my early early mock thread.

I would love it if we got Sheldon at 14 and a Jesse or Hankins at 44.

But, again no "2 WR" or "2 DT" etc. is going to happen.

We nee 1 WR, 1 Safety, and 1 DT.

Your last line seems like the most realistic outcome

With that said there are so many holes and questions we really can't miss as for as what position we are picking

Gettleman will do work

You must didn't see the first post with the DT roster we have now??

And Fletcher Cox, Michael Brockers, Marcell Dareus, J.J. Watt, Corey Liuget,Phillip Taylor, Muhammad Wilkerson and many more the last 5 years says hey.

Omg, I'm flattered tell them I said hey. That was unexpected. Didn't realize they knew me. JJ Watt is about the best example there. If he Is somewhere in ths draft take the bastard without a second glance. Sadly he's not and if he were we don't have a high enough pick to get him. What else ya got Luke? You almost have me convinced...

After this, Im making a "should we draft 2 CB" thread.

In honesty CB is our biggest position of need. We have two pro bowl DEs on our line and 3 pro bowl LBs behind them. Even if we have avg DT play we will be ok on the front 7. Our secondary is in shambles right now and could use some talent. When was the last time we picked CB high again?

    • In your opinion. What do you think Moton's true value in contract, dollars and guarantees? If we had not extended him, what is your plan for RT in 27 and 28? How important are good offensive linemen for our current offense? How much value do you put on protecting Bryce at this stage of his career? How difficult in general do you think finding above average tackles in the NFL is?
    • The Falcons have 2 significant offensive line injuries to start the 2025 season. Right tackle Kaleb Mcgary (who is the blindside protector for Penix since he is left-handed) is going to miss significant time, and it's looking more like it may be all season. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/falcons-expect-kaleb-mcgary-to-miss-significant-time https://x.com/BKsquared7/status/1959285822236107013. Also, the top backup and swing tackle, Storm Norton (cool name BTW) is having ankle surgery and may miss half the season. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/falcons-ot-storm-norton-out-6-8-weeks-after-ankle-surgery I don't root for injuries, but its also hard to be too sympathetic given how badly injuries have hit us in recent years. We definitely need to get that W in week 3 for our home opener at BOA. Despite our collective frustration at not being able to attend TC and then having boring preseason games, ultimately the most important objective of the preseason is to enter Week1 healthy, and we have at least done that. Hopefully the depth we think we have at Oline either shines through or isn't needed. Many other teams are in a bad spot with their offensive lines before the season even starts. For once, we aren't in that situation.
    • That roster was billed as a super smart and strong unit for a young QB….until he sucked though.   it didn’t have superstars but it had proven vets that checked well all the safe boxes and it was universally agreed the Panthers were putting him into position to succeed. BY just doesn’t fit a traditional O because he isn’t built like a traditional QB.  And he still doesn’t.   CJ Stroud would have had more success here than Bryce with that cast.   CJ just has the tools that fit the NFL more easily.  Young can find success but I have always argued it would take a Bryce centric plan (which we have never attempted IMO)
