Why on earth would anyone consider trading one of the only key pieces on defense?

I am. You can call him Daddy if you want.

He's one of the best. We will all miss him when he is gone. Meanwhile Capt. Whiny down in Houston is planning on sitting out the season unless he is traded. https://www.si.com/nfl/bengals/news/deshaun-watson-willing-to-sit-out-2021-season

Hey, don't lump us all together. Some of us aren't fans of either.

Defense defense and more defense. The Tampa defense is getting lost in the Tom Brady news cycle.

The only response from the Falcons...

Yeah it’s not a smart take. But the narrative a mobile QB can overcome poor OL can be put to rest. Truth is every QB needs an Ol and a team with good D and run game.

Quit using facts. Some people still won’t believe them lol

First mock of the off-season. Kind of a combination of what I'd like to see versus what I expect from the off-season based on what little we've heard as far as philosophy goes from TF and Arthur. Not gonna worry too much with salary cap numbers as of now until a number is set. The swings in which people think the cap will land are just too wild. Anywhere from 180-200 mil so guessing right now is futile. This mock is going to hammer the secondary hard. I feel like every single spot needs to be replaced except AJ. For us to have any chance of making any free agency noise though, a

No matter what your thoughts are on his performance in recent years, you've gotta appreciate the effort that man put forth in his time with this team. After getting released in his rookie year, he did everything he could to improve & was able to make the practice squad. His dedication to getting better & his willingness to do whatever it took to be a part of the team allowed him to fill a void when he made the move to FS. From there, he wasn't satisfied with just being a solid contributor, so he worked to become a leader in the secondary. What he lacked in athleticism he made up

Get Ryan that kind of coaching staff that knows how to utilize its players, knows how to scheme against opponents weaknesses and make halftime adjustments. Wow! Get Ryan a feature running back capable of running for 300 yards for a 4.7 YPC average and 3 TDs in 4 playoff games? Wow! Then, give him that freaking defense with top coaching that was able to scheme to limit KCs high powered offense to just 3 FGs? All this equals a Lombardi for the Falcons. We don’t need a new QB. Ryan has another 5 good years left in him. It’s pie in the sky talking about getting rid of him. What

I'm 57 and married 20 years. I haven't gotten it since Moses was a baby. 😖

The Falcons need a defense and a run game. Of course Brady will get the spotlight, but the Bucs got after Mahomes and disabled that Chiefs offense. They also ran the ball really well and kept that Chiefs defense very off-balanced. Time for Smith and Fontenot to get to work. Also, am I the only one who realizes that Tom Brady now has more SBs than any NFL franchise?

I can hear @Knight of God popping the champagne from hundreds of miles away.

Something about a Falcons DB and a Hooker doesn’t sit well with me...

Dear Ricardo Allen: you were one of the greatest 5th round picks in Falcons history. And you always made me proud as a fan with your tireless work ethic and dedication to improvement. Thank you for everything. Good luck with the rest of your NFL career!

More than that Ryan is better than Wentz

Yes....it was Brady who harassed Mahomes all game....come on man

To be fair, Eli Manning retired, so someone had to take the crown.

He should stop reading this message board then.

Congrats and thanks to @Rings for joining the moderating team. Rings is going to help us moderate TATF and he is available for anyone to reach out to if they need help. Welcome to the club!

I was a Bucs fan for 20 years but have been all-in with the Falcons for 5-6 years now. Last night meant nothing for me. I'm stuck with this lousy team now.

Yet I never see threads about dante fowler who is making as much as grady and provided nothing. Let's call out the ones actually stealing money instead of franchise greats.

I don't start a lot of topics, I tend to piggy back off of others and either agree or disagree and why. But I figured I would spell out what I'd like to happen, or not happen, this draft. What I want us to do. 1) Trade Down. This to me is the biggest thing we can do in my eyes. There are very few blue chip players in this draft, the good thing is most of them are QBs and as we have seen so far in offseason trades, teams feel they need one bad and are willing to overpay. I would honestly prefer multiple trade downs if possible, but we will see how that plays out. I love the dra

I really love this approach to the draft. Fontenot gave this response in a meeting with season ticket holders. Use FA for known commodities to fill specific needs and use the draft for skillsets you love.

Because he couldn't possibly play worse?

How many times has he restructured for the team, ya know, the exact same thing Bree’s is doing? It’s why his cap hit was 15-16 the last two years and is 40+ this year. Weird that you’d give Brees credit for this but not Ryan for some reason.

🙄

Heres mine. Tell me what y’all think

and he's proved he can bounce back too

but matt is smart enough along with it, to make a business decision look like he's just a clutz

What else could he say in a F2F meeting with the cameras on? "Hey Matt, you suck but nice to meet you! Be on the lookout for a trade here soon bud" Not saying what he said isn't true, But of course he is going to give high praise to his new teams QB.

He will have a long way to go to beat the 77 Falcons defense coordinated by Jerry Glanville

I, for one, believe building a great team is indeed a good approach for sustained success. Isn’t it nice to have such flexibility with the draft capital the Falcons have this year? It could be that building around an established QB is the smartest move for not just 2021, but 2022 and 2023 moving forward.

((Can't figure out how to change the font, ah well. Don't wanna have to go back bolding everything, so here goes)) Real early in the process, so I’m sure things are gonna change a lot going forward…but I figure it’d be fun to try and predict what this team wants to do (or at least what I’d like them to do) before Free Agency kicks off. Not as crazy detailed this time since cap is up in the air, and I still haven’t watched some of the guys I’d like us to draft in as much depth as I want to, but yeah. Using Spotrac for our base salary cap (186.8 cap after rollover, about 23 mil over th

As surprised as wheaties learning that Bruce Jenner would eventually become a woman.

I just want a running QB because its exciting and fun, I just dont think any of these measure up to what I like....lol. The day will, oh yes. That day WILL come. Until then, get Matt a RB, second TE, and a defense.

One other thing to point out that seems to have gotten overlooked. Unselfishness played a huge role in their success this season. There were times people attempted to stir up drama when Evans wasn't getting his usual targets and he accepted it. Last night he got one target and his response was "1 target, 1 ring". That's one aspect of their team that has went completely overlooked

Ok so just finished listening. they introduced him as one of the true gentlemen in the game. -people needing to be connected and the role social media has done to connect people for a minute I thought he was going to give a shout out to the AFMB -he’s impressed by all the notes he’s been getting about AS from former coaches he’s worked with - there has been a succession plan with WR from roddy to JJ to Calvin And that there will be some kind of succession plan or the hope is to have a succession plan for all positions - he said right off the bat that if he

In all honesty, and if history holds true, AS will benefit the whole offense.

I was happy for a short time today with the Rich Eisen news release that Smith and Fontenot are not dealing Ryan and Jones. I thought we could let the threads drift back into oblivion. Instead, we have new threads regarding trading Ryan. Now, I do not want to say that anyone should not have that opinion. But, it has been discussed to death. Let's allow these folks to have their own party. How about a forum where they can talk Ryan trade scenarios, how weak his arm is, how he cannot block on the line, how he has single handed destroyed our running game and defense? They deserve their

there are 50 players that will play a lot better this year

If we trade up for a qb, I'm deleting my ******* account.

He made the job attractive because he has such great trade value. /purp

Yeah ....I think we move Ryan..... Right behind the center....
