Doesn’t make any sense at all if you’re the Falcons.  Just draft and develop your own cost-controlled player for 4 years.  CHI has watched Fields for 3 years and concluded he isn’t good enough.  Why trade for a guy who, if he succeeds to the point he develops a bit more, you’re committed to giving a $40M+ multi-year contract to, right away?

Fields was the 4th QB drafted in his draft class.  ATL has the #8 overall pick; that should easily be high enough to draft the 4th QB in this class — whether that be McCarthy, Penix, or Nix.  

Fields is pretty big and fast.  Faster than all those guys available.  He's a good choice if they want to do a lot of QB running.

He took the 'more cushion for the pushin' a little too far

He broke her leg so I don't know if he even got up to her cushion.

Marcus Hayes wrote some negative Eagles article today but considering the source it’s probably embellished at best 

I read it. Nick Sirianni is nicer to his star players.

(1) This is a publicity stunt for her OF page. 

(2) Who in their right mind would play tackle football with a pro player?  Tyreek is a big, fast dude.  Even if it's "friendly", these guys are uber competitive and you might get clocked.  However, if I played a football game with, say, Dawk, and he leveled me and broke my leg, I'd absolutely wear that as a badge of honor.

Yeah, the Falcons need to follow up Desmond Ridder with another inconsistent QB who kinda sucks and isn't consistent enough as a passer to win anything. Go from Ridder to a more athletic more skilled version of Ridder. If they want a QB they should pay the price and trade up for one. He certainly won't have the weapons to win in Atlanta that's for damn sure.

I thought I read this morning that they were signing Cousins?  I'll see if I can dig up the link, but it sounded close to being done.

We have a new candidate for Howie posts. 

 

This is what Howie looked like when he saw that OF model that broke her leg playing football with Tyreek.

Look, I don't really care if it makes sense, but my #1 goal in this draft is to end up with Jeremiah Trotter, Jr. on the Eagles.  There are probably better linebackers that are better fits for this team, but I also don't care about any of that.  He needs to be an Eagle.  Reach for him.  Use one of those 2s on Lil' Axeman.  It would break my heart seeing Trotter wearing a Cowboys uniform. 

Signed, an irrational fan of The Axeman.

Always a good read. How are we feeling about Queen at $15M per year or Jordyn Brooks at $10M?

F no on both.

Gimme Brooks or Al-Shaair for around 10 mil then

Why can't we do both, Cooper and a FA LB. That's exactly what this defense needs, amongst other things. We have the money to do it.

I’m fine with that I just don’t want Queen or Brooks. These is a weak LB free agent class. The guys paid top dollar would be 4th or 5th best LBs in a normal free agent class. I’m looking for a bargain there and save the money for actual impact guys.

Not shocking. He was always going to be released when they could save $12 mil in cap. I expect KC to sign a WR. I think Hollywood brown makes sense for reid if the price is right

He was a bad signing from the get go for that price

I'm definitely a fan but we already have a small LB in Dean. We need some substance in the middle.
