  • We could very well draft a less talented guy that also pisses hot. I guess you want to trade Haden as well?

    Why would we draft a #1 WR at that point? We'd have Julio, the guy nearly 95% of this board had Boners for two years ago.

    Julio's the future of his team. No way is ATL going to trade him.

    fucking fools.

    it must be halloween where everyone is dressed up as an asshole GM and has a glowing pink dunce cap on.

    trade gordon for a second rounder.....NO.

    trade gordon for a first rounder straight up...FUCK NO>

    why is everybody in the FO and (now) it seems in the fan base willing to shred this team apart?

    can all you little anal licking shit wadders shut the fuck up already?

    HOLY FUCKING CHRIST!!!

    we haven't even played our 6th game and people are alright with trading the only one sure-fire WR we have, and for what? a promise that your grannie's pussy farts don't smell like steamed asparagus?

    i swear to god i'll bring up everybody's posts that said we were going to shitcan the year for the #1 pick. then 2 weeks later after the TR trade and the hoyer wins saying that obviously everyone was wrong about that and banner and lombardi were doing great.

    julio jones, aj green, calvin johnson, roddy white.................everyone is susceptible to injuries.

    for once since 99 we have a solid number one who is strong and tough and is OUR #1. AND WE ARE THINKING ABOUT TRADING HIM????

    for who fucking who?

    Nothing, beside the 2,200 yards and 18 TD's he's gotten in his first two complete seasons in the NFL.

    As a #2 WR.

    He's been pretty awful, I must admit.

    Those numbers suck....guys like that grow on trees. It's much better to whack off to a 3.1 YPC running back than a WR like Julio Jones.

    As for your earlier post....I know ATL isn't stupid and they wouldn't trade anything of value right now for anyone. I'm saying, if Atlanta is stupid and wants to give up their #1 next year for Gordon, Id certainly consider it.

    Same talent level, less strikes on his record, roughly the same age.

    Falcons get a receiver this year who can produce, we get a guy who we don't have to worry about being suspended for the entirety of his career.

    Yeah, but, "this year" we are tied for first and they are four games back.

    Tank the season and destroy team morale to pick up an injured smaller version of the same guy because we are afraid our guy will violate the drug policy?

    Did you see how Weeden did with Little and Bess starting the first two weeks? We are dead in the water without this guy.

    He's outstanding. We are 0-5 without him. Why the fuck trade him during the season ... For an injured guy?

    They give us Julio Jones AND their first rounder, it's in the ballpark. Um Atlanta happens to know how badly Jones is injured, we don't. Foot injury? What if it's the Lis Franc deal? That has ended more than one career.

    Really, this is even more of a throw the season in the toilet move than trading Richardson. It ain't happening, so STFU.

    S**t, Gordon is a F**cking stud on the level of Julio Jones, is healthy, has a peanuts contract, and you want to piss our only true offensive weapon away for a potential cripple? Please go away, and play Madden.

    they must have a sale at party city where the matt millen GM costumes are on sale for 99 cents.

    they even throw in the d cell battery where when you push the clip down on it and instead of the eyes lighting up to try and scare someone you push down on the battery and shit your pants while drafting WR every year with your 1st 2 picks of every season.

    hey rich4eagle how's atlanta doing with all those offensive weapons without an OL or a DL?

    fucking fools.

    I wouldn't say Julio Jones sucked....but I will say that I still think we got the better part of that deal with ATL. As far as I am concerned Phil Taylor is as good at what he does as Jones is at what he does. Plus throw Weeden in there...and he IS our starting QB. Plus...what else did we get in that trade?

    Whoever came up with this idea is an idiot. Why would a 1st place team make this dumb of a move mid-season?

    Plus, we probably need to draft a WR in the 1st, even with Gordon on this team. Whoever our QB is going to be needs more weapons.

    Jones is the #1? Oh OK....I thought he played second fiddle to white.

    And Gordon is more talented anyway....worth the risk. No comment on haden being one strike away from a year? Trade him to I presume since you're all about knee jerk reactions based on what ifs....

    Julio Jones is much more talented than Gordon, honestly. He's completely usurped White as the #1 receiver in ATL.

    I'm not so sure about that. Gordon is definitely faster. White is getting old so sure Jones has passed him but imagine Gordon with a good QB....you got a little taste of it week 3....

    He does play second fiddle to White, which is exactly my point.

    Let's look at this logically:

    -From a physical standpoint, they are nearly identical. At 6'3, 220 lbs, Jones is almost the exact same size as Gordon (6'3, 225). They both run in the 4.3's. Gordon has a 36 inch vertical, while Jones has a 39 inch vertical.

    -The Falcons have two #1's on the field and they are costing them a boatload of cap space. Gordon's contract is a quarter of Jones'. No doubt they'd be looking to save money.

    -We have the cap space to accomodate.

    -Gordon is one strike away from a year suspension. Jones has no strikes (that we're aware of).

    - Gordon had a fantastic rookie year, netting 800 yards and 5 TD's, which is 160 yards and 3 TD's short of Jones' worst year.

    - The entire Cleveland Browns receiving corps, Gordon included, had 16 TD's last year. Jones himself had 10. As a #2 receiver.

    -Lombardi has gone on record saying he was against the Gordon acquisition.

    -Thomas Dimitroff and Michael Lombardi worked on the same staff under Belichick in both Cleveland and in New England and are considered to be friends.

    -Dimitroff is known as one of the most aggressive GM's in the NFL, participating in at least one NFL Draft Day trade every year he's been in Atlanta. His "win now" mentality is apparent in his trade for an aging Tony Gonzalez and his questionable FA acquisitions of seemingly over the hill veterans in the past few years.

    -After the Richardson trade, It's apparent that nobody is safe on our roster.

    So, essentially, we'd be trading Gordon for Gordon, but with less to worry about and more to pay. At the end of the day, that's a trade most GM's with the cap space we have would make.

    Unfortunately, it's a dumb trade for the Falcons.

    As for the Haden comment, he's been in the league for four years. Gordon has been in the league for one. And Haden didn't fail a handful of drug tests in college, either. What are the similarities again?

    More thought goes into one of my "kneejerk reactions" than goes into any of your thought-out responses.

    Thanks for playing.

    But we are 3-2 and tied for first.

    3-0 with Gordon.

    Who plays WR? Little and Bess.

    Why would we want to shitbag this season?
