Have now read 3 legit mocks with Falcs moving up for Clowney

[Captain Morgan]

Rams at second have pass rushers.   They could get the player they really want anyway in the Falcons spot, one of the elite OT's.

 

 

While I'm a little more wary of the red flags around Clowney, I certainly admit he could be an elite rusher at the next level.

 

and we just lost Jordan.

 

 

the flip side is, that the Falcons would once again lose picks and depth to make this move, either a 2nd or 3rd this year, and maybe a little more.

 

While Julio is very good, there is a reason the Falcons flopped last year.  Gonna be interesting.

 

This is a swap that could really happen

Cause a 4-12 team is one player away.

If they do that they still won't be able to block our dline

Odds are Clowney will be there at 6 when they pick. I would love to see the Failcunts mortgage their future on one player again tho. It was so amazing watching their collapse after Julio got hurt.

Legit mocks=smart blondes=military intelligence.

See the definition of "oxymoron".

Clowney will be the biggest bust in recent history (sorry, cock fans)...

Yeah I took as much joy in watching the Falcons suck last year as every other Panther fan, but let's not delude ourselves.  The Falcons aren't that far away from being a good team.  I really don't want my favorite college player going to a division rival cause then I'll have to hate Clowney too regardless if he was Gamecock.

 

I don't think it matters if they want to trade up.  Houston is going to take Clowney....their track records show it.  I wouldn't be surprised if they picked Clowney and then traded back up into the first to land Bortles.  Bortles reminds me of Tannehill and could still be available later in the first.  If he's not there they might go with Jimmy Garoppolo in the second.  Either way.....they would be the dumbest franchise ever if they went with Manziel first overall.

Clowney will be a bust wherever he goes.

Idk if they are one away from SB but Julio was injured all last year. Adding him back and putting Clowney on the edge is definitely an elite upgrade. We better shore up those OT spots with Gallette, Clowney, and Lovie's Tampa-2.

Falcons would be dumb to move up. Too many holes to fill and having less draft picks won't help fill them.

[MHS831]

I think they wait and take one of the top 2 LTs--or Clowney if he is there.  I think Clowney goes first (to Houston) or second (to someone trading up).

Dimitroff really sounded like he was leaning heavily towards OT on the Rich Eisen podcast. It all depends on free agency though.
