Failcons Set On #4 Pick

My bet is that they see Matt Ryan as a GOAT QB who has only been held back over the years by limited weapons like Julio Jones, Calvin Ridley, Tony Gonzalez, Roddy White, and various high paid running backs. So I think they go with Pitts, Chase, or one of the two Bama receivers. At #4 overall they are guaranteed one of those players is available. All Ryan needs to suceed is pro bowl talent at all 10 other positions on offense. He has been very effectient in Hawaii.

Nope. Someone will trade up to 4 for a QB.

Probably learned from our mistakes and just take the trade down.

In all seriousness though, Denver will trade up to 4 for Trey Lance or Justin Fields and Atlanta will take someone like Patrick Surtain or Jaycee Horn at 9.

I hope they do get some exotic players that struggle while I hope we go to the trenches again. No matter how good a QB is unless he's a scrambler then he won't succeed without a good O-line. Oh, and they really love those Bama receivers.

Yeah, O-line investment is never a bad idea. Certainly not the most pressing area of need, but always a good selection when available.

Actually, now that I think about it we have a good starting O-line and we could possibly develop a player in the mid rounds or find another one from Pine Bluff Arkansas. To be honest my two biggest needs are CB & LB I'd like to see them go corner first and then the sideline to sideline speed at LB in the second or maybe third.

Oh yes....screw the Failcons.
