The Falcons are built for this year at best. Grady Jackson, Calais Campbell are gone next season and those are their best defensive players. At best they are the 2018 Bears.
REPORT: Sweat’s reported distaste for the Bears could complicate an extension.

Is he good at identifying talent? Don't think that has been proven quite yet.

Holy Moly Guacamole! Look at Daniel Jones since signing his new deal. Jones doesn't get the money without Brian Daboll giving the nod to management.
I've seen bad but my gawd this is on another level. 2 touchdowns on the season with 6 picks #brutal

Campbell, most likely. He's old anyway though. But do you mean Jarrett? If yes, they may actually be able to bring him back at a discount after his most recent injury.
Either way, they're still in a better position. Idk what they do with Arthur Smith... If they let him go and start over, then maybe they retool the roster. If they keep him and bring in a better QB, this is a playoff team imo. Hell, with their division, they may even be a playoff team this year.

I’m waiting on sports mockery to confirm this. Until then, I’m not getting triggered

Being a playoff team doesn’t mean your good. Yes I meant Jarrett. The 2020 Bears made the playoffs and they were garbage.
According to Sagarin, the Falcons have had the easiest schedule in the league and they aren’t even a full point over the Bears in his rankings.
(It also shows the dumpster fire that is the NFC North & NFC South—Lions only rank 12th with the 26th SOS—not surprising)
Just look at the Falcons wins. Doesn’t exactly inspire confidence.

Exactly, I doubt he made this trade without talking to Sweat’s agent first.

But that was what I meant about the QB play. They would have won a couple of the games they lost if they had someone competent at QB. And then you look at a win like they had against he Bucs where Ridder lost 3 fumbles, and they still won.
Give them a better QB, and their margin of victory improves a lot. That may be an obvious statement because if any team improves their QB they'd do better... but the difference is that Atlanta actually has talent on the roster outside of the QB. And Ridder is single handedly making everyone else's job harder. With his turnovers, he's constantly putting pressure on their defense, and he's doing his offensive line no favors either.
But again, I'm not saying they're locks as contenders if they got a better QB... but I do think they're much closer than the Bears. When we're one of the worst teams in the league two years in a row with very little signs of improvement, most teams are much closer than us.

You can’t look at it that way without looking at the other way:
They have been extremely lucky in close games. They could easily just as be 1-7. This is a team that will go into next year thinking they are legit but in reality they will end up regressing back to the mean and fall flat on their face. Especially if they win their shit division and have to actually play legit teams more often.

There may be some truth here though.
The Falcons reportedly offered a 3rd for Sweat but we outbid them. Seems reasonable that Sweat's agent called up Atlanta and said he wants to go there... They made an offer, but weren't willing to give up the capitol that we did.

Based on everything that Poles has done in his tenure here, it would not surprise me one bit if he didn't actually talk to Sweat's agent before making the trade. It remains baffling they didn't sign him to an extension as a condition of making the trade.
