FalconsIn2012 Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 (edited) Quick question for the forum. Rumor is that Donald will require around $18 to $20 million annually. If the Rams were to pass, would you be ok if TD & Co brought him in and paid that much for a non-quarterback? Seems like a kings ransom. While AD is a terror, it seems like too much. Wouldn’t a team be better using that 20 million to acquire 4-5 above average starters on D rather than having one all world talent? Anyways, this isn’t a bring him home TD thread. Just curious what you guys think about roster building. Is there any position outside of QB that justifies 20 million? Would you bring in AD for 18 million per year?

Flying Falcon Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 I would. And I would pay Ryan with stocks and bonds too, cause would be the only way we could afford him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flying Falcon Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 Give him a certain percentage of ownership in the Falcons or United teams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lethal Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 He may be the best defensive player in the game, and will be paid as such, but man that is a tooooooooooooooon of money wrapped up in a non qb. Would love to have him, but at that cost both financially and the talent we would have to let walk to facilitate would be too much for me. Imagine Donald and Grady next to eachother though...my word.

kiwifalcon Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 I know its the season to be jolly fAlala la la la. But NOI love the player but forget about him just forget about him. We just wiped the floor with the Rams at there house we don't need him we just gotta keep building on what we have in a manner that suits our needs. Let the door hit fantasies butt on the way out.

jeffro2000 Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 He is going to become the highest paid non QB in the league and he deserves it, but not by us. I would have a hard time paying 1 guy (non Qb) that much. He has to have help, quality help, and that becomes difficult. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not a homer, just likes and favors UGA players like that. Just playing with you, G-dawg. Or am I? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PK Manley Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 It's easy to get sticker shock with how much the cap has risen the last 5 years. Ask this question, would he be worth $12-14 million if this was 5 years ago? If yes, then the answer should be the same now, because it's the same percentage of cap space as $18-20 million is now. Same thing with a QB for $21 million vs $30 million now. Same percentage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knight of God Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 Man, is that even a question? Shoot, yes you get playmakers on your team. Yes, yes, YASSS!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
falcons007 Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 The question is would you take him over Jarret? Coz if we get Aaron Donald, Jarret is gone next year. But Falcons can do serious damage in 2018. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's my thing...cuz you probably can't have both since Grady is going to demand some nice money. Unless some other areas and positions are going to seriously fall off.

If the answer is yes and Donald is the exception, we could find the money Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmo_dlo Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 Why would the Rams pass? Worst case, they would tag him, at least for a year, or to get a first or more out of him. This is a moot question. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
