Falcons just got Judon. They get better, we do nothing.

The Falcons picking up two 30 something stars both coming off big injuries and wanting new contracts may help them win now. Maybe they will even win 10 games. But they wont win a ring and in the long run this will set them back. Let them go all in this year. It will be their ruin.

It won’t ruin them. That’s a team with young stars at important positions.

QB - Michael Penix
RB - Bijan Robinson
WR - Drake London
TE - Kyle Pitts

That’s a pretty nice group to build around offensively. They can rent Judon for a year and let him walk or if they win enough games he might want to stay for a discount. Adding somebody over 30 years old isn’t always an automatic negative.

But if their O-line looks like it did last year, all those nice shiny bullets are going to stay in the clip without being fired downrange.

As a matter of fact, Rez, we did. Don't forget we picked up a player potentially comparable to Judon in Chase Young.

Whoops! This might turn into another Riddick type deal for the Falcons.

He didn't look to promising on this play against the Cardinals in giving up the sack.

They’ll add Justin Simmons as well and likely run away with the division. I’m not of the mind that they can’t win or go to a Super Bowl. Rex Grossman went. Jake Delhomme went. Trent Dilfer won. Simmons should have never got out of New Orleans and somebody like Donovan Smith should have had Penning on the bench months ago.
