we could end up with #1 and we won't draft Fournette... and, no, not because he plays for LSU....

too many holes on the offensive line, depth at the position, TREMENDOUS needs at other positions....

I'd still go Fournette if we ended up with #1. You don't pass up the chance to draft a local hero. It makes for a great story, and not to mention he's the GOAT LSU player.

I still remember the draft when we took George Rogers over Lawrence Taylor


Lawrence Taylor was one of the greatest football players in the history of the game. There is no Lawrence Taylor this year. And Fournette is better than Rogers. I'm not saying you pick him at the top, just that the Lawrence-Rogers comparison is not valid.

Let's say the Falcons end up with a top 3 pick and take LF. It seems entirely plausible looking at their schedule.


Of all the glaring needs the Birds have, RB is not one of them. And having a former DC as the one now making the calls, he's not taking a RB when our pass rush is shite.

Hell, if the Birds ended up with the #1 pick and a shot at DeShaun, they'd trade back for more D players.

Strange thread.

Payton doesn't know how to feed a bellcow RB.

Leonard better hope he doesn't get drafted by the Saints.

Because LF is a generational talent. I am of the philosophy that you draft the best available player regardless of need.


But he's a still a RB. It doesn't matter how good he is because he's still a RB. Both teams have other dire needs.

I think we could all agree that it would really suck to see Leonard in a falcons uniform and that's the main point, and I think it has a good chance of happening.
