In an interview today, Falcons owner Arthur Blank refused to commit to Matt Ryan as the future QB. He said "it isn't up to me."

If they did take a QB and we miss out on Lawrence, maybe the best option would be for us to trade down and acquire an additional 1st rounder in 2022. We then use all of the 2021 picks to build the defense and possibly add a LT and a TE as well. We then look into getting QB Matt Ryan as a short term fix and go all in on a franchise QB in 2022 with the additional first round we add in the 2021 draft by trading down. It's not like we're gonna turn this thing around overnight anyway. We might as well do things the right and complete all the tasks. We have a lot of holes to fill before we're anywhere near being a playoff team, so if we have to play the long game, so be it. I see us as being 3-4 years away from being really competitive and that's if everything goes right from here on out.

I think the order will be: NYJ, NYG, JAX, WAS, ATL.

Ugh! So we miss out on Lawrence and we miss out on Sewell? I'm definitely trading back. Acquire first round picks for the 2022 draft.
