Well, Cousins is officially no longer a Falcon. I said when they signed him that it was a stupid decision. Signing him then drafting Penix should be near the top of the list of dumb moves by NFL teams.

Turned out really really badly.

I wasn't fully opposed to signing him, I was against signing and drafting Penix. If their goal was getting a QB then they should have signed Danielle Hunter instead and drafted a QB and signed like a vet placeholder like Jameis, etc.

It’s early but so far Cunningham feels significantly different in a good way.

What a werid free agency, so many meh guys getting paid. Big names still sitting out there like Jennings, Decker, Hill, Deebo, Taylor, and Diggs,

I think there are significant questions about Deebo, Diggs and Hill… Jennings needs to prove it more and prove he can be successful outside of SF… Decker’s a bit of a surprise but not sure Taylor is much of a “big name”

Taylor was a 20 million a year OL. Maybe not a big name in terms of probowls, APs, etc. but he signed a 4/80 deal with the Chiefs 3 years ago.

Names but not impact players at all.

My bad… wasn’t thinking of that Taylor

Dexter Lawrence seems like a pretty perfect fit for the Falcons.

I'd love sexy dexy. We have nothing we can trade. They want James Pearce Jr?

A Kyle Pitts swap would be pretty interesting for both teams. The Giants still need some offensive help for Dart. The Falcons might have to kick in an extra pick in 2026 or 2027.

I just can't see Cunningham parting with a pick when we're so mid. I could see a swap of some sort like Pitts and maybe potential pick swaps. But I can't see much being offered.
