That said it probably won't happen but at least now we have a front office who may not be too stubborn to offload while they can... One of the benefits to having a new front office is that they do not have any attachment to the players yet. Which is good on one hand but can also lead to difficult break ups....like with Roddy after 2015. Hopefully if/when we do move on from Ryan and Julio, those situations are handled better than that. athell 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Teams were hot and bothered for Takk, I can only assume they would be even moreso for Dante. Swayzee his cap hit is 18.5 and we would save 13.8 if he was traded post June 1. https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/atlanta-falcons/dante-fowler-jr-16727/#:~:text=Current Contract-,Dante Fowler Jr.,average annual salary of %2415%2C000%2C000.

TheRisen999 516 Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 I'd think Pees would want to keep him because he'd know how to get the most out of his skill set. Run 'n' Shoot 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Then we would have our 3 starting DL and 4 LBs(Fowler, Foye, Deion Jones, Mykal Walker)? I see Mykal as an offball LB and probably depth behind Debo and Foye at ILB but I like your thinking. Means can probably start while we develop a younger player. Alomar 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Means can probably start while we develop a younger player. Walker was primarily used as an edge rusher in college and was very good. I was surprised by his coverage ability. I do not know how he would fare as a full time edge rusher at this level but he's a great blitzer. Having him on the outside would be good because opponents would never know what he is going to do. That pairs well with someone like Fowler on the other side because he would not drop into coverage very often. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AxManBigFan 415 Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 Trying to trade Dante Fowler would be like trying to sell a soggy sandwich drench in sweat. Maybe if he had a decent year next year. But he is more of a 3-4 pass rusher anyways that’s were all his success has come from Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PriMeTiiMe 7,925 Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 Fowler is going to eat under Peas. He will go for 10+ sacks this year Quote Link to post Share on other sites
