Trojan Posted March 16, 2022 Share Posted March 16, 2022 (edited) If Brett Favre era into Aaron Rodgers is a 10/10, what would a potential Vick into Ryan into Watson be (+1 year of trash to get a good enough pick for Ryan) be? Is it Peyton -> (trash year) -> Luck level good? Better? Edited March 16, 2022 by Trojan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's based on the actual date. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im confused i would be trading Richie and Grady in the watson trade this week according to reports those were the players added in our offer. Then i would hold ryan until june 1st and trade him to the Colts for their picks next year instead of this years draft. Is their anything against doing that or am i missing something. With the Watson restructure we could even fit both of them under our current cap until june 1st if that would cause a problem as well lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On another note, I wouldn’t hate it if Davis Mills leads the Texans to some relevance as a new Matt Schaub type and Watson struggles on a bad Falcons offence. I fully believe for this year their would be some struggles but i think with the amount of cap we have next year we could put a legit offense around him to give him a really good chance of success. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think it works well because that's a fairly short time for a player (specifically a qb) to get in tune with a new hc, offense, players, etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought you meant trade them all now and just try to designate Ryan post June 1st. What you said would work. Not sure how well it'd go over with the fan base, Ryan, cap wise, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What you said would work. Not sure how well it'd go over with the fan base, Ryan, cap wise, etc. If you are talking about the Falcons fan base if the falcons forum on the real falcons website is any indication i would say it's about 70% for it and 30% against it lol. I look at it like this i love me some matt ryan but the real window with Ryan is about 2 to 3 more years. Im not 100% sure the Falcons can go from what we are right now to a SB championship in those 2 to 3 years. Maybe we can but it's gonna be tough to do so. Where as with Watson at age 26 thats a 10 year window opened up to build this team anyway you want it and get the cap back on track and put pieces around him. Would still like to do it within those 2 to 3 years if possible like with Ryan. But if you do then you got 5 to 7 more after that of winning instead of Ryan leaving right after that for retirement maybe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deadpulse Posted March 16, 2022 Share Posted March 16, 2022 This game of musical QBs is pissing me off. Already missing the days where big QB moves were rare AF and usually at the end or very beginning of their careers a la Brady, Brees, and Peyton (and River's fits both, technically) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just did it on the Falcons forum but it was a pretty solid plan i think and it's not as bleak as it looks not at all. Where is at? I just checked and didn't see it. I genuinely would like to see it because I see no reasonable deal that would be good for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats a fair value for Ryan or any top vet QB. While allowing the team getting him to keep their picks this year. See that was the only unrealistic part of the scenario. All that money stuff made sense, but you're not getting that much. Depending on being able to spend all that cap down the road is going to put you in potentially some overpriced contracts. Maybe its possible, but idk that tough to envision. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
