Amid the Atlanta Falcons fall from respectability, there is a notion now that the Falcons should “Tank for Tua”. There could not be a more ridiculous notion out there.
For one, the Falcons do not need to spend a first-round pick on a quarterback. The Falcons need to draft pass rushers, defensive tackles, offensive lineman and cornerbacks. Should they draft a quarterback in 2020, hell yes but not on the top five.
“Tanking for Tua” would be the worst possible pick that the Falcons could make. Yes, he attends Alabama and yes, he is a sexy name.
