The Falcons already had an awesome run game and just struck gold with a late round pick in Allgeier.Yeah that's for sure. Some people don't like that pick but I'm not one of them. They are invested in Fields, and this is part of that investment. It's not like the draft ends at the first round.
Now, the Lions and Falcons, on the other hand. . . hooooo boy those 1st round picks lol.
So they went out and made sure they didn't actually build any momentum as a franchise. They got 5-10% better at one of the only places they were competent, which also happens to correlate the least with winning games.
My go-to motto with pro sports is "bad franchises stay bad for a reason." The Falcons and Lions just did it again.
