He just declared for the draft and is projects to go from mid to late first. He has wicked athleticism and a lot of upside but needs offensive work. I went to high school with him and we graduated the same year. We had a bunch of classes together and I've had the privilege of watching this guy develop his game.

What are your guys thoughts on him as a prospect?

I think these sentences are probably the only reason you're excited about him. But seriously, he's got upside and potential, but so did Bismack Biyombo. We need an offensive threat NOW. Not one that will possibly develop.

I don't like him for us, but he's a nice prospect. Athletic, good size and wingspan, NBA pedigree, defensive potential, good rebounder for position. Isn't much of a threat as a shooter though.

Quite reminiscent of MKG, though not as tenacious or with seemingly as high of a ceiling. Like I said I don't like the fit but as of now he's probably a borderline top 20 talent anyway.

Uh he is also a good player.. I don't have on rose colored glasses. I know he needs work offensively and he has the athleticism to take him far especially when he bulks up

We already have Biyombo and MKG which are offensive projects....we need offense.

    • 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)
