There was talk about D Watson from the Texans early but they would not trade him in our division. I was excited about that one, but almost more so about this one. With the Colts pretty decent defense and one of (if not THE) best running back in the game last year, this really should give us a decent shot at doing something this year. I think it's good trade. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In other news, it's supposed to be a so-so year for QBs in the draft, so another instance of excellent timing by the home team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seahawks or the Panther's, my money is on the Panthers of those two. Maybe a surprise team like the Eagles? Hurts won't like it. Lions? They'd have to get rid of Goff. Musical chairs, the chairs are filling up! Even with a weak QB class, there are going to be some teams overdrafting. This has been a very interesting offseason!

The national media keeps running their mouths about the lack of 1st round picks and leveraging their future with expensive FA’s but they seem to have the cap managed really well and keep finding ways to stay competitive. The one thing I never hear is how many 2-4 round draft pick starters they have. Their player selections & development don’t get the credit they deserve.

MickinMD ★ Posted March 22, 2022 Share #24 Posted March 22, 2022 21 hours ago, ChrisL said: Hmm I actually like the trade for the Colts. I’m guessing ATL is rebuilding now? NFL.com says: The Falcons moved fast to address the QB position, agreeing to a two-year contract for Marcus Mariota as a potential immediate replacement for Ryan in Atlanta. Falcons coach Arthur Smith has history with Mariota from their time shared in Tennessee. Despite the upcoming class of quarterbacks lacking true impact player power, it's fair to believe the Falcons might also spend their first-round pick in April on a quarterback. Atlanta is in the midst of a rebuild and is up against the salary cap ceiling, with just $71,282 in cap space before the Ryan trade, per Over The Cap. The trade saves the Falcons roughly $9 million in cap space, but also forces Atlanta to carry over $40 million in dead cap for the 2022 season. The Colts picked up Ryan's $7.5 million roster bonus and added guarantees to the entirety of his two-year deal that has nearly $54 million left overall, Rapoport added. Ryan has passed for over 4000 yards in 10 of the last 11 years, missing last year by 32 yards but with a 20 TD to 12 INT ratio. I don't think ATL figures Mariota is in the same class as Ryan, but the QB's in the draft aren't rated high, so maybe they're looking at getting a new QB in 2023. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not, the draft this year blows for impact QBs, and I'd agree with you that they are looking to next year. This is the same boat Seattle is in regarding the QB.
