175_Ranger_Falcon Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 If Lawrence and Fields are both gone. Grab the DB from Alabama to pair with Terrell. Then bring in Earl Thomas to replace Rico Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People need to realize we don’t have a GM yet. So people need to stop saying what will or won’t happen. True that it is all speculation until it actually happens. When has a QB drafted high come in and sat a full season, behind a top tier QB? I am merely saying history says it likely won’t happen that way. Usually by halfway through the season a change is made...then again maybe that’s because teams generally taking a QB top 5 dont have the luxury of having a franchise QB on the roster already. I won’t say no way it happens, but it doesn’t usually happen that way. Gonna be interesting to see how it plays out for sure. If this team drafts Fields, the scrutiny of Matt Ryan will go up 10 fold by the fan base...if he doesn’t have an MVP season folks will want him gone after every game, so just get him gone preseason and save the QB controversy. Blank tries to give the fans what they want to fill seats (hence Gurley), so he could want the local kid on the field ASAP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dapanch420 Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 for me wilson is the better passer. more accurate, more arm strength, faster release, more zip on his balls(no pun). hes also pretty mobile. only downside is i heard he might be injury prone. blknoble357 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rings Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 8 hours ago, ShmevinShmarris said: If Fields can go out and give a solid game against Bama.. will he play his way into the number one pick? Doubt the Jets would let Lawrence past the 2nd but it’s the Jets.. and Darnold has been playing by good football lately. No. 1) Wins aren’t a QB stat. 2) Lawrence lost his OC and offense looked completely out of sync making him look bad. Sound familiar? 3) Recency bias is what made Terrell fall to us in the draft. Lawrence has a 3 year sample size, one game doesn’t erase that. FalconsIn2012, 1989Fan and youngbloodz 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly nobody thought we would be in this situation because our team isn’t as bad as the record states. The new GM might see that and think he won’t have another chance at a QB he loves this high. He might not want to blow it up and go one more year with the same team. Or he might want to blow it up and trade Julio and Matt and start over. It will be interesting to see how it plays out. I can definitely see a GM taking Fields or Wilson if they’re there and letting them sit for a year though. Atl Falcon and 1989Fan 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There isn't one because everyone has known for 2 years now that Lawrence and Fields would be the top 2 picks. We've all known he wouldn't be there at 4. The debate has been about Zach Wilson. It’s all about spiking the ball because folks have been saying Fields is going to be a project and they didn’t like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilson might be, but Ryan is only 35 and has plenty of good seasons left. If Wilson is there at our pick I would rather a trade down since there is no stud defensive player this year. Ryan doesn't have plenty of good seasins left. What games are you watching? I am a Ryan supporter but its time to start thinking about a replacement for him. What is up with FALCON FAN ****!!!! I fell into that trip about MV7 until Ryan came in 08 and actually I was against getting him at that time because of his inconsistencies in college, which is one of the reasons he got benched at Boston by a Former Falcons Coach and if you take notice he is displaying some of those tendencies that he displayed in College, its time to start moving forward...HAMN!!!!!

Fields is the same player he was 24 hours ago...lol I like Fields and would take him if available. He has the most upside in the draft. With that said, Fields is still the toughest guy to figure in the draft. Now I do agree with that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ROMERO Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 If he somehow falls to 4 (if we are there officially) you have to take him. We dont know what the new regime is going to do with Ryan. Yes we need to draft a QB for the future. I dont see how he falls past 2 now because after last night lol. But dont expect him to come here and start right away. Ryan most likely will be here most likely for one more year. Ryan has been my favorite Falcon since Kerney. But Im a Falcons fan first. blknoble357 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caponine Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 9 hours ago, Francis York Morgan said: Agreed. Jags (if they're smart) would take Sewell first or try to trade down for Surtain/another QB, then Najee Harris with their other 1st rounder, take Paulson Adebo and maybe a DT in the 2nd. Put guys in place for your eventual franchise QB. Which could happen tbh, especially if they want to give Gardner Minshew one more chance. Get Sewell and Harris or go defense and get Surtain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s been meh a lot of other times in big games, but not tonight What other big games? Let me guess, the Northwestern and Indiana games, nevermind he is 20-1 as a starter and the only lost came against Clemson last year, where he ball that game as well and drove his team down the field for game winning TD but it was picked when the receiver went turnes the wrong way, but its your world.

Probably wouldn’t make it past a year unless Ryan has a good season, he will, and we make the playoffs (who knows). As long as we get Fields on the roster i don’t care I’ve been a falcon fan since i was 5 years old this is the only year i ever rooted for us to lose i said we needed Fields before the season even started he’s meant for this team and this city blknoble357 and Macknsweetjones 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
