The best NFC South team Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 May have been a good idea for your team to get burrow, if Dimitroff didn’t owe so much to Matt Ryan. You need pass rushers badly. JD dirtybird21, ChickenBiscuit and Ergo Proxy 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blank and the GM (TD or not) are going to take some serious heat if they take a QB with a player like Young on the board. Trading Ryan could also outrage some fans. It’s a risky decision business wise It would be very much like GB drafting Aron Rodgers when Favre was 35 and still a PB QB tactician 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He even publicly said that the greatest decision he’s ever made for the Falcons was drafting Ryan. I think he wants to have Ryan retire here. It would be cool to draft Burrow.

And I got a good feeling Belichick wanted to do that 3-4 years ago. Owners love them some QB’s. And yes, I’m sold on Burrow. Wouldn’t be mad if we drafted him. But I just think it’s never gonna happen. I think we trade the pick to the highest bidder before actually drafting Burrow himself putnam6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don’t think he ever lets a GM cut him or trade him. Unless the team after him is offering a kings ransom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coastiemike Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 I’m the biggest Ryan fan there is. However, if Young is gone, you draft Burrows. I see a little A Rodgers in him. You let Ryan know ahead of the draft that is the plan. You advise him he is still the starting QB as long as his play is top notch. You also advise him as a professional, he will be doing his part to groom the next Falcon’s QB to take over once he retires in 4-5 years. I think Ryan is ok with that and it would actually help elevate his game. Jerz 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerz Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 This might be our best chance to grab a franchise QB without trading up and riding the QB carousel.

Instead we’ll be fielding pathetic lopsided teams while watching Matt regress into Eli Manning. The accuracy of this kills me. In 11 seasons, we've built a championship caliber roster about twice. I guess you could count 3 if you think our 2017 team was worthy of a championship (I don't). If Burrow goes on to be another young QB on the rise in the league it's going to suuuck. Especially if we don't get Chase Young. They say draft BPA but they don't really mean it. Jerz and FalconsIn2012 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChickenBiscuit Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 What do I always say? If the opportunity arises...don't be a fool. but if Chase is on the board that's a different story. Y'all always say BPA right? Let this kid learn behind Ryan. Tribal Chief, Jerz, FalconsIn2012 and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1989Fan Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 No to Burrow, and not because I don’t like Burrow. Build up the team (esp. OL) so Ryan can benefit now and the next QB can come into a situation where he can succeed immediately. I am for a guy in round 3+ to groom for 2-5 years though. Brady got to be Brady because he was drafted into a great team that didn’t need a QB right away, and already built a great team around Bledsoe. i repeat, build the team so the next guy can succeed instead of drafting a QB first, which guarantees a top 5 pick or highly paid MVP caliber QB is on the bench.

He went to an annual playoff team. if one of these studs falls to top of round two maybe you reconsider, but not top 3. Brady, Rodgers, Roethlisberger, Flacco, Jackson, Dalton, Watson, Wilson, etc. all support that walking into a good situation can provide immediate success. if this team needs gutted for CAP reasons, taking a QB top 3 is just lunacy (considering I don’t see how Ryan is financially tradable) Tribal Chief, Ergo Proxy and Geneaut 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
