    If Herschel had Brock Bowers blocking for him, Herschel would have had 10,000 rushing yards and 100 TDs

    May God bless young man.

    12 teams passed on the best player in the draft. Six took questionable QBs. The Raiders just got a lot better.

    @Stiffneck

    Sorry but QBs, LTs and WRs are more valuable than TEs. The same reason Dallas Turner is the #3 player in the draft on merit but went 17th. And for the record, if Marvin Harrison Jr. is a first ballot Hall of Famer like his father - especially considering how Jr. is 4 inches taller, 25 pounds heavier and actually faster than his old man - it would surprise absolutely no one. He skipped the combine, pro day and individual workouts and was still a top 5 overall pick in the deepest WR draft in years. Sorry, but QB situations notwithstanding it is going to be fascinating to see whether Harrison Jr. or Bowers has more receiving yards this year. And Harrison is even an above average blocker for a WR too.

    Falcons took a qb instead of bowers, after having paid Kirk Cousins 180 Million. You literally couldn't make it up if you tried.

    Not only that, Cousins is coming off that achilles tear - so what do the Falcons do? They draft another quarterback who has been injury prone since 2018. Good job.

    It seems to me the falcons just refuse to look at UGA players. I agree some positions are more important than others BUT when it's Mr. Brock Bowers you do everything possible to have this man on your team, everything! Whoever it is making these decisions for the falcons are not earning their money.
