I'm ok either way at this point.

If he signs they've got the best receiver in football. If not, they get compensation and don't have to pay Jefferson $265,000 per catch freeing up cap.

No question. That's why overpaying for a QB was a bad idea, especially on a "defense first" team. Zimmer knew it would happen and he's not psychic. They weren't able to make any moves to improve the team in FA. One bad pick in the draft does not explain what happened. Zimmer took one of (...

That's what FA is. The top available will be overpaid because it's an auction. Look what that Falcon team just paid a good QB coming off an injury. The Falcons draft of a tier 2 QB didn't work. That 2017 team had the number 1 D and then in 2018 it dropped to 17. That's a huge decline year over year...

Your right with being stupefied. They would let it slide. I know the check down to Hock didn't slide away. That will be his signature play for us. I'll keep it more positive and remember the long 4th down strike to JJ against the Bills. Kirk was pretty damn good for us. Sometimes great. We never ha...

I disagree with you both. You almost make my argument for me with your posts. Draft picks, what are they really worth? Look up some analytics on draft bust rates of 1st and 2nd round picks. Might open some eyes. Without a young QB to build around, they have near zero chance to compete. Period. Thos...

I think I like it.

The worst case scenario is they get in a bidding war with the Broncos. I think there is a low chance the Broncos let JJ drop to 11.

If there is a QB KOC really really likes that he can actually get he should do what it takes, within reason, to get them. It's what the team needs and being able to groom one is a major reason he's the head coach. Time to move on it. If he doesn't have the ability to get that person, it is what it ...

I agree with everything you posted but don't you think a franchise QB, no matter who it is, takes the spot? I won't knock JJ because he has proven from day 1 what he is. If he winds up being the best ever before he's done is a stretch. It's hard to jump Rice with his SB victories. When Moss was her...

Soooooo..... Would you trade JJ for the 5th pick in the draft, and a future pick? To me, that's a tough call. Picks 5, 11, and 23 could very easily turn into a major roster upgrade with an infusion of youth on rookie contracts. Nah. Last time the Vikings had 3 1st round picks they got Sharif Floyd,...

Where did you hear that? It was posted on one of the Vikings sites. Which I thought was smart them consulting with Brady. I went back to try and find the article but couldn’t find it. IT was posted on Twitter with a link. They talked to Brady about Dobbs a while back. I don't think it's ongoing.

If they decide to stay put after this trade the 23rd pick is probably a good spot to get one of the 2nd tier QBs. So 11 would become whoever they think is BPA. If one of the "top tier" QBs slip to 11 grab him and still have the 23rd pick for whoever they think is best there.

Hearing Kirk admitted flat out in the falcons presser to talking to the organization before the end of the no talk period. Anyone have any idea how this might play out? If they lose a draft pick do we get it? It seems like he had the team's blessing on it. The team isn't dumb, the Falcons signed a ...
