Re: Let's hope this rumor isn't true...

to me, the cost of moving up in the top 10 is exorbitant compared to what you get
We certainly haven't had a winning record with our trade-ups

I think ATL has too many holes to give up a lot for Williams. But, if they do move up, it could help us: we are both looking a O-linemen and DE/LB's in the top 15

Reminds me of them giving up 5 total picks to move up for Julio; how'd that work out for them?

Re: Let's hope this rumor isn't true...

If Atlanta really believes they plugged some other d holes in FA, this could be a real move. To get to 3 they'd probably have to give their 1,2, and 3, and maybe something next year, or their 1, and 2, and 1 next year

remember that their new coach said that they did everything they needed to do in FA... but basically they did nothing

as for:

that wrist-slap is in 2016
