Give up 2021 first round pick for Adams. Team is set for a run instantly. Next year cap goes up, sign a FA instead of first round pick. You got AJ and Adams, kept Ridley too. Next years draft is way too deep to give up a mid round first for Adams and then have to pay him. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Falcons will have plenty of cap to work with in 2021, giving up first round for a FA pickup is not a deal breaker. I'm all for trading a pick or something... just sick of seeing Ridley thrown in to sweeten the pot Quote Link to post Share on other sites

He benefits a lot with Julio on the other side taking a majority of the attention. They said the same about Reggie Wayne. Mister pudding 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It's beyond stupid. It's immature & foolish. I don't want to punish anyone but some people here need to be held accountable for throwing around such incredibly irresponsible ideas. Otherwise, they'll keep doing it LOL! It reminds me not to take too many of our posters seriously. Sure we're here to post opinions & enjoy the falcons, but for crying out loud, use some sort of common sense! I sometimes wonder if people are acting stupid just to stir the pot. I found myself in a conversation with a poster yesterday who insisted we should have taken Cee Dee Lamb instead of Terrell because Lamb was the BPA. I asked how Lamb would improve the team and he chose to not comment. He went on to say there was no run on CBs. I pointed out there were 5 taken in the first round. He insinuated I was stupid and could not count, that there were actually 5 taken in the first round. A person cannot be this oblique in real life, right? It is just pot stirring, right? If anyone truly believe in unconstrained BPA drafting, what do they think happens when you end up with a half dozen first round QBs? You will have no cap space. You will have major holes on offense, defense, and special teams. You will have discord in the locker room. I call BS on all of this. HASHBROWN3 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Not saying you are right or wrong. But you honestly believe Adams + Ridley > Adams + Lamb + 1st Round Pick Also remember Lamb is nearly 5 years younger Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Some fans get so caught up with the idiotic Madden mentality where they will do almost anything to "win the draft" or throw caution to the wind so they can fulfill their emotional desires of self satisfaction at any cost. I should simply laugh & move on, but it's so blatantly irresponsible that it's difficult to not be offended. That's when I have to sign off & get away from here sometimes. I love Madden but I wouldn’t trade Ridley lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites

That’s nonsense and you would be a fool to trade Ridley in the first place. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It is nonsense if the plan did not work. It is nonsense if the plan miraculously did work. Ridley is proven and he is exceptional. He may be in Julio's shadow too much, but he is a rare talent. He is a hard worker. He is humble. He is liked by his team mates. Matt Ryan knows his tendencies and vice versa. Some of these guys really need to walk away from drugs and alcohol. Stop drinking that unfiltered city water. Try something. Cheyakita 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

That's why unless you have a SB quality team in place, there's no way to ignore a positions of need one way or the other. I do think you can draft BPA at a PON however. But this must be measured based upon the pool of talent that year at that particular position of need. If it craps out quickly or one expects there to be a run at that particular postion, then you better go ahead a select the player you need at that position or it'll kill you during the season. Also in play is depth, experience, etc... And regarding if people are acting stupid just to stir the pot?... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

You don’t have to make more holes in 2020. Even If they did, I will still pick the falcons first 3 picks + Adams and Calvin Ridley over a rookie who hadn’t played yet and give up multiple picks. Falcons are in good cap position next year, it’s better to give up a first round pick in 2021 and grab a top FA next year. I understand people are too emotionally attached every year in the draft to certain players and most players don’t live up to the pre draft hype. ya_boi_j 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
