Twitter: The Atlanta Falcons now have received trade calls from multiple teams

Makes sense - lots of teams are gonna want a QB there. ATL can likely move back a few spots and still land Pitts

Trade Dak to Atlanta for their #4. Better yet, trade him to Jax for the #1 and watch Jerry screw it up by picking a tight end.

Trade Dak to Atlanta for their #4.

Only a 66mil dead cap hit.

If Atlanta moves down, they’re going defense. Hopefully they move past 10.

So? Its not like Jerry is really interested in building a contender. He's more interested in the money he might have coming his way in jersey sales should all the players start changing to different numbers. His overpaid underachieving QB might want to change to #15 since that is the # he wore in college.

No trade clause

I kind of hate tweets like this as it's a given that ATL is going to listen to offers - it would be poor due diligence not to and every team listens to anything no matter how inane it might be.

My guess is ATL probably wouldn't want to drop further than the top ten - they could use some help in the secondary so you might hope they stay at #4 or they could logjam for Surtain/Farley/Horn.

Trade up and get your QB of the future. Dak won't get a second contract with the Cowboys.

I can't see a team moving up that is picking past number 10 to 4, that would be expensive to move up and ATL prob doesn't want to get out of the Top 10, they need talent especially with a new coach. Realistically it will be Detroit or Denver moving up to 4 if anyone does. They would only do that for a QB or maybe for the Lions, the OT. I still think that we would be in Prime spot to pick the 1 of the 2 best defenders in the draft at spot 10.

Facts don't seem to matter around here

Are we starting this already?

 

[DoctorChicken]

If a team thinks Jones or Lance are going to be starting quality QBs, the this is the obvious spot.

 

[Whirlwin]

I’m going back to my Zach Martin scenario. You take most worthy at this point. Who deserves to be picked. Not the best player not to need. The person who wants to play I want the football player.

some say PITTS might be the target

he is already on his second contract

 

[pacy]

Well, then he his not getting a third contract.

We probably won't pick that high again in the near future.

 

[big dog cowboy]

I'll be shocked if the Falcons end up drafting a player at 4.

I felt that way before that Shefty tweet this morning.

If they want Pitts they can't trade back and expect to get him. It can happen, but they can't expect it.

Have you looked at his contract? It's set up specifically for another extension, and rather soon. Dak would have to completely crap the bed next year to the point where Jerry regrets signing him. If that doesn't happen, he'll be restructured. That's why the 6th year is in his contract. Once that happens the Cowboys are committed. He'll either get a 2nd contract or the Cowboys will eat a fistful of dead cap.
