The Falcons are looking for a head coach once more, but as long as they find a quarterback, it doesn’t matter who leads this group.
Desmond Ridder and Taylor Heinicke’s play directly contributed to Arthur Smith’s dismissal, and if they don’t get it right this time, it will also be the reason for the downfall of the next coach.
When it comes to professional personnel, there aren’t many possibilities that are inspiring. The only guy worth adding who still has the potential to become the next quarterback for the organization is Justin Fields.
The Falcons need to look younger because they can’t continue to rely on Baker Mayfield, Kirk Cousins, or Russell Wilson as band-aid solutions. The team hopes to discover the solution in the draft. I believe that trading up for any of the top three players—Drake Maye, Caleb Williams, and Jayden Daniels—is worthwhile.
Maye, Williams, and Daniels would be my top three choices, in that order. To advance, though, will require a significant deal for any of them, particularly the best prospects.
The Falcons strike a deal with the Bears to move up to the first overall pick and choose Caleb Williams, the 2022 Heisman Trophy winner, in the most recent mock draft from The Athletic.
It’s a pipe dream to move up from the eighth overall pick to two first-round and two second-round picks, but I’m doing this trade twice on Sundays and every day of the week.
A few firsts and seconds for a franchise quarterback is pitiful compensation, and if Chicago decides to list the pick for sale, the amount they could obtain in a trade would be far less.
The first overall pick will cost more than the Panthers did the previous season. Carolina sent D.J. Moore, two firsts, and two seconds to Chicago. That’s where any deal this year will begin.
Three first-round picks, two second-round picks, and Kyle Pitts would be a more plausible trade for the Falcons to get overtaken by the Bears in the first round. I’m carrying out that transaction without blinking, even now.
A Super Bowl without a quarterback is just an afterthought.
