We’re a poverty franchise, the fucking redditors could’ve done a better job building a team.

Taking a TE that high when, Jamar chase, micha, Devonta smith, Jaylen waddle, Penie Sewell, Patrick Surtain, were taking right after. Is why we will be a poverty franchise for decades

Then the following year taking the slowest wide receiver when our defense was ass and Garrett Wilson was on the board.

Then the following year taking a RB when we have an elite run game already, when arguably the best player in the draft is still on the board when historically we have had the worst pass rush in decades

Fuck my dad for making me watch this team and cursing me with being a falcons fan.

    Yup, they could have gone in multiple directions, but considering how safe Arthur Smith was after the bye week. The Arthur Smith era is missing some playoff heartbreak. Falcons have the easiest schedule imaginable plus a Jets squad that is going to reel from that pick six yesterday.

    Being a fan is a choice. You’re not FORCED by any means to stick to the franchise.

      It’s not a choice for most people. I mean if I had chosen a favorite team it would have been easy to go with Montana and the 49ers because they were THE SHIT back when I started watching football.

      Unfortunately I grew up in Savannah, Georgia and my dad watched the Falcons, Braves, Hawks and Dawgs like MANY people in Georgia. No choice about it. It’s forced on you.

        Dude, to be honest, I wouldn’t have any other way. Our day in the Sun is coming, but it looks like my future kids would end up seeing me crying tears of joy.

    I kind of want them to just use reddit polls to build the team and see what happens

    Don’t even start with the “we took a Te when we could of had…” BS. This hindsight stuff is so annoying. Pitts was viewed as a sure fire stud who’d be a Pro Bowler right away. It was a good pick at the time.

    London is now merely classified as a slow receiver? He’s a good player.

    as a cowboys fan the falcons have a good team outside of qb and some wr depth. imagine if they had a qb like kyler or kirk. they’d be beyond better in the division

    All this is pretty much right and hard to argue add against.

    Excellent post.

    Fucking Falcons are what they are. Smh

    They could have done better in the last 4 or 5 drafts with first picks literally just by drafting in state sadly.

      Cmon man. Leading the worst division in 15 years while having a losing record and a cupcake schedule is nothing to be happy about
