  1. If you hand the rams a top 10 pick, it was stupid. If you win and don’t hand him that pick, Raheem said, “we are not picking that high again”.

  2. As long as they don’t get bain jr or top 5 I guess it’s okay but we are very close to pulling a pelicans

  3. I love the trade but our inept coaching staff is signing its own death warrant with how we keep losing games. It’s wild our defense can have 7 sacks and 2 takeaways and still lose. Like our rookies are doing super well but the team is not putting it together.

  4. I get why we did it, and I’m not jumping up and down mad at it. The way I saw it at the time, we were just paying a 5th to take our 2026 1st Rounder early. Pearce and Walker look good so far, and will hopefully improve and make it not a big issue.

    It IS irritating that this is likely to be our highest pick since Pitts, and we won’t get to use it. But again, I can’t be too hot about it.

  5. I hate the whole “it could even be a boat” meme people have been using because Pearce isn’t a “boat” yet. Pearce has been fine, but who’s to say this doesn’t end up being a top 5 pick?

  6. That’s about to be a top 10 pick. Falcons aren’t who they thought they were. It was an obvious overspend for a GM who knows he’s likely to lose his job and now the next GM is handicapped out of the gate.

  7. You guys have the talent on both offense and defense. It’s time for the coaching staff to step up. They are definitely underachieving with this team.

  8. Trade was fine, but Zac Robinson and Raheem Morris seem determined to give the Rams the best possible pick.

    Edit: oh and that bum at special teams coordinator

  9. Pierce will likely be a better player than Kyle Pitts and he was 8th overall, so if we’re higher than 8th next year, seems like a pretty good deal

  10. We now have a top 5 pass rush in football, no one we could’ve had this year besides Bain would be better than JPJ, and our pick won’t be top 3

  11. I wouldn’t mind the trade if our pick wasn’t going to be in the top 12, but our coaching staff is making sure the Rams get a primo selection

  12. I’m not upset with the trade because there is no excuse this team should be this bad, yet they’ve found a way through terrible coaching.

  13. don’t regret the trade at all. the reason why this team stinks isn’t the defense, it’s the offense. And unless you have questions about Penix (which I think is fair at this point), the blame for the offense being as bad as it is lays solely at the feet of Raheem Morris and Zac Robinson. An offense with Drake London, Bijan Robinson, Tyler Algier, and the o-line talent we have should not be as bad as it is, and there is no excuse for it. And even if you’re totally out on Penix, that move was made before the 2025 draft, so it should be irrelevant to how you feel about the Pearce trade.

  14. 50% of the snaps with 1.5 sacks and 1 QB hit isn’t a key cog. Sure he’s looked good at times, but the jury is still out.

    I don’t totally disagree with what he’s saying but as of now this looks like a terrible deal that Atlanta made.

  15. I’d rather we not send LAR a Top 5 pick, but I’m cool with the move. It was up to the coaches to make this a great deal for us. They are failing.

  16. If the season ended today the Rams would have the number 9 pick in the 2026 draft.

    And I say this thinking the trade was brilliant and James Pearce Jr. had Top 10 talent out of the draft class.

  17. I wonder what next coach will under perform after Morris is finally gone. Blank and McCay will surely hire another winner to waste the career of the picks

  18. Happy we have JPJ but there’s definitely good edge rushers this class that have as good of a tape and given the trajectory of the team good chance we would’ve been able to take whoever we wanted.

  19. Jaylon walker being what he is ..is no surprise to me.

    Low sack count at UGA doesn’t mean anything for their players because of the amount of time they share.

    If he keeps playing like this he should be defensive roy..

    Jpj play has not surprised me either but I’ll leave it at that.

  20. We got what we got so I’m good with the trade. Nothing we can do about it now. I believe Pearce can only get better and we have a pass rush so again I’m good. A new regime would love to come here with all this talent on offense and defense.

  21. What ifs and maybes will make most sports fans miserable but a falcons fan?

    You just can’t live that way. Even in sight of the results. Preseason 2025 has happened and gone.. all we can do is hope a few more coaches end up going with it. Fuck the hypotheticals and digging in deep on that shit. It can’t be changed.

    Save your energy for slinging shit all over the Internet at these coaches lol

  22. I think JPJ and walker together is the reason you make this trade and Xavier watts was just the icing. We hit on all our defenders this past draft and while it is going to hurt seeing a falcons pick somewhere between 4-9 end up with the rams I still think we got what we needed. Pick a wr in round 2 and then go OL with all the remaining picks.
