The Atlanta Falcons were expected to be the front-runners to pursue Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson, should the latter slap him with the non-exclusive franchise tag. The Ravens in fact did that on Tuesday, yet reports quickly emerged that the Falcons had no plans to pursue him. Allen Strk (@TheFalcoholicLive) and host Aaron Freeman discuss the reasons behind why including if Lamar is a part of a proxy war between the NFL owners and the NFL Players Association. They break down the case for and against the Falcons adding Lamar to the Falcons roster, before discussing the team's decision to not tag right tackle Kaleb McGary and what that means for his future and the move to retain outside linebacker Lorenzo Carter despite defensive scheme changes.
