I was seriously going to consider giving up my season tickets if they fricked it up. Not necessarily not picking him but picking someone retarded instead.

What took them so long to make that decision? They were gifted a great player, and had to think about it? "Uhhh, how can we frick this up guys, I know we can."

Super fired up that they didn't screw this one up with a 1% chance of him being there.

With it taking them the full amount of time to make that decision, you know the fricking morons in the room were trying to go another direction.

"You don't draft Jalen Walker and you will lose 1/3 of your season ticket holders over night you stupid mother fricker."

They probably fielded a phone call from someone asking to trade up. A GM wouldn't be doing his job if he wasn't at least listening.

I've been as harsh on Fontenot as anyone, but yesterday was by far his best day in the 5 years he has been here.

I just want to say that was the most painful draft I've ever watched because Kiper talked about Shedur every pick. Team that doesn't need a qb. Takes a ol or te. Here comes Kiper with a 10 minutes lesson on Shedur and previous qbs that fell. No one gives a frick Mel. The team didn't need a qb, we don't need to hear about him every pick. It was like Daniels talking about Bama when they are not playing.

Dracula has to keep trying to justify his job all the while being absolutely terrible at it for decades now. He would be the kind of guy that the Falcons would hire for a GM.

James Pearce has looked like a defensive monster so far. I know it’s pre season but I feel great about him

My favorite thing about him so far is how much he is pissing off the veterans. Someone is finally ruffling some feathers at Flowery Branch Country Club.

He’s gotten in multiple fights in camp. Only name I’ve seen reported is McGary.

This is great to hear. The falcons have been soft as hell for a long time. I’m also hearing good things about Penix in terms of his leadership.

Has anything been said about Jalon Walkers progress? I haven’t seen much about him like I have Pearce

Is he expected to play LB mostly this year? I find it hard to believe he will be able to make a full time transition to DE this quick
