And this is why we say Falcons fans have negative football IQ.

How are the Saints going to stretch the field this year? Who is going to run the ball? You guys have good lines but your skill set outside of Jimmy isn't very good

What the Saints aren't worried about is a team they have a 13-3 record over, including the sweep last year.

We have our eyes on the prize...something you non-championship teams wouldn't know about

If you guys dont address your wr age and speed you might be surprised to what happens to you, same as Falcons not addressing their soft lines

One of our starters will be in his second year, Morgan is young and shown flashes before injury, our TE is the best in the game and in his prime, and we're likely drafting a WR early...consider your concerns addressed.

Chris Johnson?? Go ahead, pleeease sign him, he hasnt been worth shat since he signed his big contract (see Haynesworth). You just proved my point about your skill set at rb and wr

Sure, we'll sign him. We could use the cap space.

Vaccaro is a stud, why you guys put all of your offseason chips in on another safety (who you over paid for)instead of keeping your all-purpose backfield stud, i dont get it

We have good backs, just no Sproles type weapon at the position at the moment.

It's a passing league and we now have one of the best secondary's in the game to go along with a nice d-line...it's a good thing I promise

He had a down year and in a league with a salary cap, it's better to cut ties too soon and sell high rather than too late and be stuck with a bad contract.

This is quite the topic for the Saints board...what type of player should Atlanta draft and why?

Nope, not MSB material at all.

Thats what we have Kroy for.
He did it in the first game, and would have in the 2nd had he not been injured.

But to the OP, I don't see the Falcons taking Watkins even if we trade back and he is still there. FS and RT position don't currently have starters, and there is also a need of a pass rush. I think it will come down to Mack/Robinson/Matthews/Pryor
