I would definitely like this but not sure about getting into a bidding war over him. Either way I look forward to TE no longer being largely an afterthought.

$650 million in taxpayer funded stadium renovations and the Tepper's are still raising ticket prices.

Based on the continued approach to the most consequential position on the football field thanks to his push for us to trade up to the first pick one should logically conclude that his presence is still felt within the day to day operations. The guy isn't a monster but he also isn't in need of anyone lining up to shine his shoes or kiss his ass but lo and behold there is always someone that wants to paint him out to be a victim. I assure you the billionaire is doing just fine regardless of what anyone says about him on the internet. Carry on.

Credit it where it's due for sticking to their guns and not overpaying.

They are now the top draft priorities. We have a truckload of cap tied up in FA signings on young talent so we need to go younger and cheaper on the OL anyways. Time to start now.

OT and Center are the priority now.

$15 million per season is actually a very reasonable contract all things considered. He's a Panther now so I hope he balls tf out. This defense is going to be a force in the NFCS. I think that side of the ball is going to undoubtedly have to win us some games this year. We'll see how it goes.

The Super Troopers mustache is impressive. I'm on board.

So just to be clear after this signing which is about as transparent of a move anyone should need that our FO is completely invested in maintaining Bryce Young's comfortablility in year 4. Are the folks who have in the past argued Dan Morgan was just blowing smoke when he has said time and time again over the past few years that he is a firm Bryce Young believer and fully invested in his future willing to acknowledge they were wrong? Dan Morgan is not being controlled by David Tepper. This is who he is. This is the path he has chosen. Might as well accept it.

My first instinct is to be livid. But these jokers are tying their jobs to this so let them make their bed. And on the flip side. Seeing what Canales managed with Bryce Young last season who knows what he could do with Pickett if need be if it came down to it. I still want us to draft a developmental QB.

Falcons signed Tua the Bucs lost Mike Evans. This division is still open. Man we better pursue a real backup QB. If not at least draft one with ideal size and a real NFL arm in the mid rounds. Anything is better than no real backup plan.

Pickett has been the rumored name from some of our local beat reporters. *cue laugh track*

Not sure what Dan's plan is with C but he's playing with fire.

Well. If we were going to swing this big. I'd rather it be this than an ILB. Leave that for the draft.

Damn. Certainly risky. If he's a real dog and brings more attitude to the DL I'm gonna hope for the best.

That's a big damn chunk of change. This guy better stay healthy and ball out.

You are mega shītposting now.

The guy is about to be set for life regardless. He sure isn't being victimized by anyone on the huddle. Put away the violin okay?

LB is going to take some time and we are going to have to plug in draft picks too. Lloyd is a tempting piece but I feel like we are expecting him to save the entire unit and we've already learned the hard way things don't always work out like that. He isn't a bad player. But logic and our experience as a franchise dictates It will probably end up somewhere in the middle. But that to me is not worth an overpay with all the needs we have. However if he becomes a Panther I will hope for the best and support him until he gives me a reason not to.

There are things to be optimistic about certainly but there are also things that we should absolutely be as realistic as possible about to avoid setting ourselves up for heartbreak. As far as right now I say talk to me after the draft. We can chase all the free agents we want. Drafting well is the only way back to relevance and legitimate competition for the playoffs and beyond.

This guy up late pooing posts over Dan Morgan talking about others whining lol You gonna throw down over your favorite GM too if anyone dares to say anything that could be perceived as critical? Folks like you used to behave the same way over Scott Fitterer. How'd that work out?????

The issue with kicking the can down the road in regards to the cap is it all depends on the returns you're getting. Is this group worth going all in on for the 26th passing offense and a group that backed their way into the playoffs with the help of the Falcons? For me I would be more inclined to do what we can within the limits of reason and not treat this offseason like we have to fix everything in one swoop. Because that has also not worked out for us in the past either.

Unfortunately I don't think they're ready for playoff expectations yet honestly.

Nobody is asking for perfect. But 20 million a season for an ILB who was the slowest run tackler amongst all ILB's is not exactly a slam dunk either. For me the issue is overpaying FA's to bandaid key units. It's not a sustainable path. The only way this franchise is going to emerge as a consistent contender again is nailing the draft. Anyone here on the huddle or across social media can sign the best FA's.
