Do not pursue Deshaun Watson in 2022 Free Agency…
Keep Matt Ryan for the remainder of his contract (We were paying him anyways).
Draft Desmond Ridder to be mentored by Matt Ryan…
That way we would have been at least a bit more competitive in 2022 and developing a potential successor at the same time…
Don’t try to tell me that Ridder benefitted at all from being “mentored” by Mariota…
Again, completely hypothetical as other variables would also be in affect…
I just feel that if this were a realistic possibility we would have been better off…
i would have drafted Ridder, brought him to Flowery Branch immediately, and locked him in a room with nothing but a cot, a toilet, a TV, a PS2 and a copy of NFL QB Club 2002 until the season started, but that’s just me
