ThemDarnFalconsBoy! Posted October 20, 2019 Author Share Posted October 20, 2019 It's one thing for the team to spend money and the team gets better. We're spending money and getting worse. How does one even explain that off, and is OK with it? sdogg, Chitown2ATL_Falcon and Flying Falcon 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK. so when the defensive personnel "fits" DQ's philosophy the next DC coming in is pretty much stuck. No cap moves to make many personnel changes. I just don't see how we'll get much better on that side of that ball. Offensively we could be OK, but we'll lose Mack and Sanu. Probably just to re-sign hoop. Those will be glaring holes.

GATXBOI Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 What if we trade Matt right now... wBring in New GM and HC..I think we could get a 1st and 2nd round picks in this upcoming draft for Matt right now. Probably get a 4th or 5th for these players: Freeman, Sanu, Trufant, Beasley, Takk ,Allen , Oliver, Crawford Players gone after this season: Ortiz, Hill, Barber, Campbell,Beasley, Neal, Stocker, Bosher, Bryant, Schaub, Hardy, Neasman, Ishmael. This off-season this franchise will be getting some new leadership and direction Chitown2ATL_Falcon 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a good thing for sure, but sometimes I think emotions were involved. I can't fault them for extending Freeman, even though it was horrible timing. He looked incredible at the time, but it was a result of Shanny's schemes. capitan and Chitown2ATL_Falcon 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Herr Beast Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 Man that picture is brutal... nobody committed as much as we did to 2019 and we get a 1-15 for it. Everyone involved in this has to be fired... obviously not the players because obviously we are still on the hook for their money.

This graph is tremendously misleading and doesn't mean what you think it does. The Falcons are actually in one of the best cap situations in the NFL. By this graph, the Redskins look to be in a much better situation, yet they've got another $71M in cap space allocated a QB that may never play again.

How is that one of the best cap situations? Tmodel66 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herr Beast Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 24 minutes ago, *TMo* said: Trade Julio Jones and Matt Ryan and that graph changes dramatically. That is not how the cap works. If we traded both players, all signing bonus would apply immediately, even worsening our cap situation because the signing bonus is bigger than their salaries. This team can‘t do much. Only players like Freeman, Trufant and Sanu (all at the end of their contracts) could be traded/released... Beasley is off the books anyway next season, question is if we can trade him the next 10 days to have those savings roll over to 2020. But we might even add a 7th rounder for anyone to take him, I am not kidding... it is like what the Texans did with Osweiler.
