I won’t be a fan of the trade depending on how much the cost is. I am firm in believing/knowing that we have a huge need at another position and this would be a luxury we can’t afford

Read another article just now that ATL wants a 1st. That aint happening.

I was wondering why Atlanta would want to get rid of Jones after not drafting a QB, since that would seem to indicate they're trying to win now. They won't, but I think that must be their mindset with Ryan, Pitts, Ridley, etc. Now the possibility of trading him makes sense: it's because Jones wants out.

LOL is right.... even funnier that a team will end up actually going through with it
i mean if that's actually what happened then it violates various journalist ethics
but im still not sure that julio didn't know
and because they're in cap hell this year and next year

Atlanta is pretty screwed the next two years lol... best they can hope for is that their offense starts lighting it up and overcoming their horrendous defense. But that’ll be tough without Julio

Well I think they'll be fine this year. They can restructure a contract or two to create space to fill draft picks. They were in rough shape coming into the year, but they already made some cuts/restructures to migrate through it. A restructure for Grady Jarrett is pretty much the easiest move to pull off. Really not sure why they're not pushing to extend him anyway, since he's been one of the few bright spots on that team in recent years.
But yes, next year, they're pretty much fucked. And that's because of the $48.6M cap hit of Matt Ryan, which would pretty much require an extension to greatly reduce.

What do you think of Rodgers not being at OTAs when he normally is? It's quite crazy how that this is even a possibility. You think he is gone next week?
Wouldve been nice but its not gonna happen. Tbb i dnt even want him. People gonna expect lamar to throwing for 4500 and thats never gonna happen. Shit idk if he can even reach 4k.

I just don’t see the reason we’d do this. I mean if this were Madden, sure. But even that wouldn’t make any sense now.
I think so. Oh well if he is going to be like this time to cut him loose.
