All the holes we have everywhere now is there really a bad pick we can make?

i say pick a position thats hard to find a good one outside of the top 10

 

so QB or OT imo

 

though, if pass on OT i like the potential we have at OT. play them in a tank year, see what we got, and draft one next year if need be. go get Tua this year

Not against any of that but i think tua out of reach and taking him subjects him to the very first problem you presented at OT which could bust him up for good and already has hip issues...

then cut all older expensive guys, let the young guys play to see what we have, and get a top QB next year. 

 

oh yeah, and take it on the head this year as far as dead cap, so in the following years we have all the resources  available to create a smart rebuild, and not be held back by past contracts

I would be on board with that as a long term move, I dout tep wants to be just straight up ass gas for a year or 2 tho... he seems like losing really pisses him off.

I don’t think we would even have the option. Someone is going to fall in love with him at the combine and take him ahead of us I think. He really is a freak but I REALLY am crossing my fingers for Brown. Maybe figure out a way to get back up in the range of some late first round interior lineman after that. 
 

I just hope we stay true to the idea of being patient and don’t go chasing after a Herbert at 7 or a Fromm in the second etc

are they 7th pick good tho? not so sure.

Agree with you. That’s why I’m on the Brown train personally. LT is a big need but Brown appears to be as “can’t miss” as they come on another huge position of need. 
 

When you are picking at 7 you just have to make sure you don’t miss. Brown will be productive for a long time.

      FREEAGENCY FRENZY

      The Seattle Seahawks have agreed to a one-year contract with free agent wide receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling, a source told ESPN.   The Seahawks are in need of receiving help for new quarterback Sam Darnold after agreeing to trade DK Metcalf to the Pittsburgh Steelers and releasing Tyler Lockett.   In Seattle, Valdes-Scantling will be reunited with Klint Kubiak, the new Seahawks offensive coordinator who was Valdes-Scantling's offensive coordinator last season with the New Orleans Saints.

      Will the Falcons actually keep Kirk Cousins?  At the NFL combine, Falcons general manager Terry Fontenot said the team would NOT be releasing Kirk Cousins. So will the Falcons actually go through with keeping Cousins?  It would make sense for two seasons: 1. He could be trade bait. If the Falcons cut Cousins, they don't get anything in return if he signs somewhere else. However, if a QB gets injured this year or if a team finds itself in desperate need of a QB, the Falcons would be in a spot where they could trade Cousins for decent draft compensation. The only problem with this possible plan is that Cousins has a no-trade clause, so he can veto any deal. That being said, if he wants to be a starter somewhere and his options are "get traded or be the Falcons backup" then he might accept a trade.  2. Cousins' upcoming $10 million roster bonus. Cousins has a $10 million roster bonus that becomes guaranteed on the fifth day of the league year (March 17), but that money isn't due to him until March 2026. The Falcons could keep him for one more season and then let Cousins test free agency in 2026. If Cousins did that and signed a deal worth more than $10 million with another team, the Falcons would owe him nothing due to offsets.  Basically, the Falcons could theoretically keep him and it wouldn't be complicated, so it will be interesting to see what happens in this situation. As we mentioned yesterday, the Browns are ready to pounce on Cousins if he becomes available.

      I really hope it works out whoever we draft but IMO Stewart's bust factor is off the charts. Checks every measurement box twice and yet completely lacks production. It's such a a massive red flag.
