You see everything the Texans are doing? They are absolutely legit superbowl contenders this year, year 2 of Ryans’ tenure.
They are able to do this, exactly as the 49ers have been able to do this, because they are taking advantage of the rookie QB salary advantage.
The Falcons completely pissed that away, BUT had every opportunity to so just that.
They went the traditional route and paid a veteran. You can’t have it both ways.

The Texans got incredibly fortunate to have a QB who played pro bowl caliber his rookie year. Most 1st round QBs become busts. Even fewer are ready from day 1. For every Stroud there are 3+ Fields, Zac Wilson, etc who tank teams for 3-4 years waiting on development that never happens. The Falcons view the Mahomes/Rodgers/Love model as higher % odds, with a dice roll on their future and a solid starter in place if the odds don’t work out.

Nice hindsight 20/20 logic. If only every team could recover from their top 5 QB pick being a bust with the last pick of the following draft being a pro bowler. That is a great sustainable model for other teams to follow. Just win the lottery with a 7th rounder as your star QB.
