brownie man Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 Niners don’t have anything to trade unless they’d send Lance and players but I’m assuming Texans want picks. 9ers don’t make sense Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would you rather sit back and let your division rival trade for him and play against him for the next decade, or make a move on from Ryan and let him retire probably and get Watson for your own? I will never question the depths of which owners will go to screw over a division rival. It's possible they "kick the tires" on it to see if there's a chance, but the Falcons don't have much cap space and would have to eat a majority of Matt Ryan's contract. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan would have 50 mil in dead cap for them if they trade or cut him. lol so Watson reached out Atlanta Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pastor Dillon Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 some teams will do this just so they get a sit down with a player who might be in their division. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LORK88 Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 So according to my guy, Deshaun wants to go home to Atlanta. I trust the guy, just feel like it's going to keep changing by the hour. This is what sucks about a no trade clause is that Carolina could offer the best package and yet we're stuck with whatever Atlanta can give us because Deshaun gets his choice. Feel like it's a safe bet he's ending up in the NFC South. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let Atlanta flip him, get extra picks and then they can put those picks into the offer. Atlanta is VERY light on players to put into an offer. They’re not trading Kyle Pitts, so that’s pretty much anyone worth grabbing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he’s not willing to meet us halfway, it’s another year of not playing football. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s picking more than one team to want to play for. Nick ain’t getting fleeced after a year. Or Atlanta will give up an obscene amount of picks and will suck for the time span of said picks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jch1911 Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 In regards to Deshuan to Atlanta... https://overthecap.com/matt-ryan-deshaun-watson-and-the-falcons/ Do you want to help the Clots out (with Matt Ryan) becomes the serious question... If it does end up being a 3-way, I would want C Drew Dalman (ATL) CB Kenny Moore (IND) Edge Ben Banogu (IND) 2-42 (IND) conditional 2023 1st (IND) Ryan plays 70% of games, if not becomes a 2nd 1-8 (ATL) 2-43 (ATL) 2-59 (ATL) 2023 1st (ATL) 2024 1st (ATL) But my gut says, nope... not helping the Clots out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
