Falconsailorman 84 Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 (edited) If he's there draft him. Highest rated lineman in draft. There are always risks and the Falcons have bigger needs but Sewell is to good to pass up. Question do you draft Sewell if you get a decent offer for pick?

I personally would not draft Sewell. We should trade down, get a future 1st round pick, and start loading up on D. Ideally, trade with a team who has a chance of sucking next year, so we can get a high draft pick. Falconsailorman 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'm trading down if the opportunity presents itself. Especially if a team wants a qb. That's a premium price. We will have the needed ammo to move up for a qb either next year or the year after as well. Falconsailorman and duckhoa 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gonobeast 237 Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 If not drafting a qb ..... accumulate picks. Atlanta needs better players and depth. Falconsailorman 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Every QB not drafted #1 was passed over. But, you know what doesn't happen? QBs getting drafted in the 1st to sit. Teams drafting a QB when they have a MVP on the roster who is still under contract and playing at an extremely high level.

mqg96 2,317 Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 I'd never draft an offensive lineman being top 4 in the draft, but that's just me. I'd never take that chance, there's so many other (secretly) going to be great O-linemen out there you can get in later rounds. Year after year. Talented QB's don't come often.

Drunken Minotaur Zebra 7,317 Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 On 2/17/2021 at 2:49 AM, I Even Bleed Red said: Terry Fontenot had made it clear that he wants to build for the long haul. He comes from a place where the top priority was to protect Drew Brees. Fontenot knows first hand how Cameron Jordon has owned Matt Ryan (correction: owned Jake Matthews). Arthur Smith comes from a team that emphasizes the trenches. Sewell is ranked the 2nd best player in the draft behind Trevor Lawrence. He is consider the most dominant O-Lineman to have ever come out of college. If he gets past the Jets, we will draft him at 4th overall. In fact, we’d be lucky to have him. You'll get mocker fockers (stole that phrase FFS70 ) saying we're gonna take a QB or trade down and go nuts with picks, but your point about NO's #1 priority being OL for Brees rings true. I agree with the pick. Falconsailorman and I Even Bleed Red 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Falconsailorman 84 Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 The key to winning teams make the best pick or trade when the time comes. Obviously coaching is a big part and system but I am talking from a GM perspective. How New England other than last year remained so good for so long making the right picks or accumulating picks. Yes they had Brady but they still had to draft good. Sure they'll miss on players but unless a player is just to good to pass on accumulate picks.The .ore chances you have the better percentage of getting g good players. Let's hope the Falcons get offered a good deal. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It's a bold prediction because no many have us taking him, when in fact, he may not make it past the jest or the Finns. I doubt he makes it past the Dolphins.

Mescalito 1,848 Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 Just now, Mescalito said: I doubt he makes it past the Dolphins. The Dolphins would be wise to take him with their 1st first round pick to protect Tua, then maybe get a wr or rb with their 2nd first rd pick. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
