The fans want more content like this plz!!! Rise up
No we don't we want more wins
The falcons need a def player that could sack the qb
And the falcons need wr that is faster
I love being a falcons fan & I would not change it for the world! ATL for life🔥
Facts👌🏾👌🏾 even tho they bring us pain
Rise Up!!!!
The good the bad the ugly falcon fan 4 life!
No matter what!
Same here I bleed red n black every Saturday n Sunday dawg on Saturday n falcon on Sunday
This is really cool. Rise Up
Yeah bruh this is dope 👌🏾
Rise up
Most people don't realize what a beast Pitts is and the kid from UCF will be a starter this year also and the defensive lineman is very underrated...
He’s a mismatch nightmare!
Richie and Pitts are studs but sorry Graham moves like a sloth
Idk about the d line but correct 👌🏾
I just wanted them to beef up the trenches we been soft for years.
And the combo of him and Hurst and the receivers we not talking bout Gage n the others this gon b interesting
When the niners picked trey lance Terry's ass lit up lmao big sigh of relief..Kyle was the target for months ..this is dope welcome to Atlanta agent 8
He's not welcome in my book we needed a quarterback the wasted Pick just like every single one of these picks
@@rileykazama3145 facts
I’m not sure if he was the target, I think it was Lance but we took the BPA in Pitts
The dislike is from Justin Fields 🤣
And Saints fans
I have never felt such a breath of fresh air from my home team. RISE UP!
I got that "Frank Darby" excitement for this season and beyond! RISE UP!
In Terry We Trust.
Damn right
Crazy as hell
in keeping leads we trust
We made the right choice thanks too the front office. Kyle Pitts is the truth..Can't believe he's only 20 years old..
I hope the Falcons keep him for 20 years
20 years old and 6'6 And 245 pounds. Freak of nature like Julio 💪
Im all-in on Atlanta. Excited for the future!
Pitts is right next to julio and ryan in the locker room. Thats the spot to be right there
About that
He'll gain 15 pounds of muscle before the preseason since it's phase one and they'll do strength and conditioning tests for the past weeks
He’s close to the peak of his athletic ability, 15lbs of muscle is not realistic at all. But he’s definitely gonna add on size and strength to be on par on the NFL level no doubt. Gonna be a solid season.
Can’t wait for the season
The horrendous Super Bowl collapse puts so much extra pressure on any draft picks who come in. This fan base would be able to be much more patient if we already had that trophy.
The superbowl is coming
This season gonna be legendary!
It was matt Ryan's last year so you wasn't far off
My boy made it to the big league
Love our draft picks, HOPEFULLY they can bring it on sundays
Rise up look at the rising stars
I like the secondary. Think they’ll be a dark horse in interceptions
LOVE BEING A FALCON FAN
Love them even more if they can win A SUPER BOWL
I WOULD MAKE ME FEEL SO GOOD
With Matt Ryan as our quarterback I highly doubt it
Awesome Video. Thank you 🙏🏽
This is dope!!!
This team will compete for the NFL Championship this year!!!!
😂😂😂I see you say this b.s every year
@@Ajmovinwork Who are you????
@@tonywright282 pls don't tell me this is Anthony wright
@@tonywright282 Let's not jump the gun yet, but love you're enthusiasm.
@@tonywright282 Not yet brother, In the next 2 Years I see it! But we did have the best draft that’s facts!
Can’t wait! Rise Up!
Thanks to him and the rest of the 2021 draft class we missed the playoffs
les go rise up
I'm so scarred by the Quinn regime that I forget that we basically have a completely different front office... Excited for what might be.
This was dope!!!!!! 🔥🔥🔥
Welcome to Atlanta everyone... you guys are all special in your own rights. Work hard, practice like you intend to perform in game day.... let's get a Superbowl Win!!!!!
Arthur look nervous when he was talking to kyle 🤣😂 rookie head coach nerves rise up!
As a FL fan and ATL fan this is amzing!! Let's go Kyle and all the other guys!!
let’s go 💪🏾 no more choking please
The Falcons have taken so many wrong turns over the yrs - both in leadership and personnel. They seem to have finally gotten it right - GM hire, HC hire, Coordinator/Asst hires, sticking with Ryan for the time being, solid draft with no real head-scratchers. The team is simultaneously in build mode AND win now. I have never been more excited for a season! p.s. I'm loving the GM/HC combination - a bit of a Yin and Yang these guys.
Huge W baby, RISE UP‼️
Got me too pumped !
Great to See!
So happy about this draft and my falcons!
Germany!
And i wish you the Best! KILL THE LEAGE !
RISE UP ATLANTA!
Richie grant is gonna be a baller
His sideline to sideline speed is insane
I like the direction the Falcons organization is going. Fontenot and Smith are smart guys.
This is beautiful, that safety gonna have a nice season. You secondary looking promising. Good job front office

@@rixchhyoungin3435 dang on show and sure was time we tell in a few more month's
@@jewellbell8642 Fields is trashhhhh that’s why
I can’t believe they passed up on Fields. I’m happy I’m not a Atlanta fan.
Fields is in a worse place
Keep Julio and Calvin. Tighten up the defense, and cook!~
Build around Matt Ryan and go back to the NFC championship 💪
Fan😍
Let go
Pitts gonna be a baller in ATL theres more to his game besides tight end
Top 10 team
Yessir
He ready
2:15. You see that? They wanted Trey Lance. When he got plucked they went to plan B. Best player available.
What? Why are they smiling and fist bumping when he's selected by the niners?
yo yo
🔥✨
2:57 terry says something about the second one his talking about. So was trey lance the first option or am i missunderstanding that
Definitely what I took from it. Lance was option 1 but Smith knew he would be gone.
Im pretty sure you misunderstood but later on Smith says that he was our guy since day 1
@@dransby Smith knew trey was gonna be gone 2 months ago... so it's kyle
nah man he said "It's the same It's what we talked about"
Yea I heard, “Its the same as what we talked about”
Fan
Back to the playoffs an this time we coming to prove something they always sleep on us
Yeah look good
DO THIS AGAIN FOR THIS DRAFT PLZ.. NEED SKILLED WR1, T BURKS OR DRAKE LONDON. olave or Wilson ain’t it for ATL lol
What's going to happen when Ryan's cap hit jumps from $26.9 million this year to $48.6 million next year? Of the 5 highest paid players, the only one that is safe if Grady Jarrett. But there is no replacement in place for Ryan (I think he has a good 2-3 years left before the decline is noticeable), Julio (who only played in 9 games last year and frequently left the field during drives in the few games he played), Matthews, and Fowler. The team needs to clear about $9.2 million just to sign the 2021 draft class. They aren't going to cut Ryan, Matthews, or Jarrett. What team is willing to eat Julio's $23 million cap hit? And we didn't draft a DE high enough that could replace Fowler.
I'm happy so far that Fontenot only reworked Ryan's contract. So far, he's been very responsible with his cap management. And he didn't extend Ryan, he just turned his salary into a bonus so it's just guaranteeing the money. But next year's draft is going to require a LT & DE in rounds 1 and 2 to get this cap back under control. That will get Matthews & Fowler off the books. And how can Ryan's cap hit be reduced from $48.6 million without extending him for another 3 years? That's the tricky situation. This is what happens when you signed Freeman to a ridiculous contract and extended Jones with a full 3 years left on his contract. Now we are paying the price for those moves.
So 2021 is a write off year. 2022 is a write off year. Ridley will need to be extended in 2022 and there will be no money to do it unless Julio is traded post June 1, 2021 and Matthews & Fowler are cut after June 1, 2022. If we don't extend Ridley in 2022, he walks in 2023. The Falcons have the lowest number of players under contract of any team in the league in 2022 (only 31) and we are already close to the cap. And this doesn't include the massive contract coming to Ridley. If Fontenot remains responsible with the cap then by 2023, we can start to actually sign free agents that aren't league minimum salaries. But by then, Ryan will be running on fumes at age 39. Julio will definitely be gone (he'll be gone next month anyway if any team can eat his salary). Matthews will be a distant memory. So now we'll be free of the Dimitroff cap disaster but we'll need a rookie QB in 2023 and a WR. So while this isn't an announced rebuild, this is a long painful process to be mediocre while digging out of a cap nightmare. 2021 - trade Jones. 2022 - draft LT & DE in rounds 1/2. 2023 - draft QB & WR in rounds 1/2. So this is just going to be years of suffering to pay for Dimitroff's fat contracts to aging veterans.
And anyone who thought ATL would get a QB in 2021 does not understand basic math. The Falcons would have had to eat over $63 million in dead cap space on Ryan's contract. A full 1/3 of the total cap. That was never going to happen. Ryan can't even be cut next year. Too expensive. And he's fine. Ryan is not the problem on this team. He's easily the best QB in the history of the franchise. And we picked up an undrafted free agent RB from Louisville that could actual get notable playing time and it proves you NEVER give a RB a second contract. And you certainly don't waste round 1-3 picks on an RB. It's like drafting punter. Not necessary. You draft positions in the early rounds that allow you to manage the most expensive positions in a friendly manner (QBs, LTs, DEs, CBs, and WRs) by paying low rookie contract salaries for 4-5 years instead of weighing down the roster with aging veterans who are super expensive (i.e. Fowler, Matthews, Julio).
Do it for God
He’s another Julio Jones
He was a butter
Goodluck matt ryan window closing this season will show. QB next year draft class 2022 . Hope u get the right person.
All this talk about QB's and they ain't draft not ONE! LOL
LMBAO
