DirtyDez Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 I didn’t like the Darius Robinson pick in real time but it’s grown on me since then. The Cards had the worst front-7 in the league and Turner, Verse, Latu and Murphy were gone by #27. Monty looked at the corners remaining and thought one of them would be there at #35. Newton falling I think shows teams think the foot issue is too significant for a 1st rd selection. Robinson doesn’t have superstar potential but he’s versatile and can be a rock on the DL for a longtime. Maybe I’m biased having watched Calais Campbell’s entire career.

PossibleCabbage Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 It's hard to be mad about the Darius Robinson pick considering that like 15 years ago that guy goes in the top 10 (Tyson Jackson literally went #3 in 2009.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the time i reacted like everyone else but after sleeping on it this is what i think about it. I see it as them extending their window at winning football games. If they would of taken Turner or Murphy then i would look at the Falcons and think they have a 2 year window at wining it all, Now i look at them and think they have 6+ years at being legit contenders IF Penix Jr works out like i think he is going to be. Also Kirk is the epitome of QB purgatory so they will more than likely be picking in the 20 range when it comes to the draft so they might not be in this position again for awhile to take another QB while not having to sacrifice draft capital. You say extend their window but is there window even now given their current makeup ? Are they even a Top-4 team in the NFC? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Individually, neither move is bad. Together, they are disjointed, dysfunctional, will split the locker room, clearly pissed off the owner, and show no ability to plan ahead. They even wanted Kirk so bad they tampered too 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaguarCrazy2832 Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 The Jordan Love/MPJ comparison isnt the same. Rodgers kept talking retirement and was coming off a down year, Kirk just got there and they even tampered to get him 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were differences in the situations, but who was lauding GB for taking Love? The media was hammering them for once again not getting Rodgers receiving help, and declaring that the Packers must be mailing it in/should trade Rodgers. They were getting dragged through the mud, as are the Falcons now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I'm not a Chiefs fan, but I do live in the suburbs. I am very, very pleased, however, with what the Vikings did. With the 49ers taking Pearsall at #31, it's clear the Chiefs were correct to move up. The only issue is whether they went a couple of picks too far.
