It’s a good thing that Kirby Smart blessed the state of Georgia with a competent football management staff and highly successful team, because the folks in Flowery Branch aren’t demonstrating a lot of competency here. On a day where CKS flipped Miller back to Athens and landed a top rated backup QB through the portal, Arthur Blank and Co were thinking of new and creative ways to add accelerant on the dumpster fire that is the Falcons organization.
Blow an early draft pick for development and hope, while paying a premium price for a bench role player? Maybe they will trade him for someone they like early in the second round or something. Or not.
And we thought the NIL and portal drama was bad (note: it is, but this just may be worse).
