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.

    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

    I love all these posts that drop on a Saturday and then reading them on a Monday.

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

      You can always tell newer Falcons fans because they get spun up by the hype in the summer and they’re furious by December. SMH

        Bro I’ve been a fan since 2008, first game was Matt Ryans first game when I was 12. I remember his first passing being a touchdown to Harry Douglas. I’ve been a fucking fan for 15 years. FUCK THIS

          15 years?

          Brother, I have Falcons shirts older than you.

          You’ll adapt. You’ll figure out and finally ignore the hype train that gets going in the spring and hits full speed in late July. You’ll get your Sundays spoiled for just the satisfaction of beating the Saints.

    Pitts was the right pick. Now the other two I can’t defend. I’d have gone Hamilton and Carter and made our defense elite.

      There is no universe, including one where Pitts has consistently played at Hall of Fame levels since draft day, where taking a TE at #4 is a logical choice for building a franchise. If you don’t understand why no other club has done that, then you do not understand positional valuation. Don’t feel bad, though, because clearly our GM doesn’t either. Two years later he made an even worse value decision to take an RB in the first.
