The Atlanta Falcons decided not to franchise tag Kaleb McGary. McGary had his best season in the last year of his contract. Jon Chuckery talked about how the Falcons did the right thing by not overspending on McGary.
Lamar Jackson had the franchise tag placed on him yesterday by the Baltimore Ravens. The Atlanta Falcons were rumored to be in the Jackson sweepstakes ever since contract talks had stalled with Baltimore. Jon Chuckery talked about Jackson just didn’t make sense for the Falcons.

Good Take
4yr/50 mil sounds good. This keeps him in the Top 10 of the league and hopefully happy.
We need to lock up Lindstrom as well.
First round OTs are the #1 position to have 10yr + NFL careers. The numbers arent even close.I think OL was 1,2.
Lamar better get paid this year because LJ 23 season will be less then 22,same for 2024. His best year was his first,MVP year.
@15:55 respectfully, who cares how Ridder feels, this is a business. What about my feelings as a Season Ticket holder that has to go to an empty stadium to watch ridder throw 2-yard slants. The same guy that didn't register a TD til we played a team resting for the playoffs is who feelings we're considering? This is a business, and feelings should not take priority. the goal should be improving every position ESPECIALLY the most important one on the field. For some reason, we're banking that a third rd pick will perform like a 1st rd pick…which has an occurrence in the NFL of like 2%. If our front office professionals do not comprehend probability then they should be fired. And I cant comprehend throwing away a year just to give someone a shot when people are paying season ticket invoices, and grown men are hitting each other for 17 games.
Good stuff Chuckery, but why are the media mad because we didn’t bid for Lamar? There saying collusion, It’s crazy😂
Well said
Lamar didn't get my hopes up I never wanted him here
Great points on the Falcons and Hawks. I’d rather get a defensive player or CJ Stroud with #8 pick but if we choose O-line I like Paris.
He sucked at pass blocking
