The Falcons seem to be the team that Deshaun Watson has already chosen, given Matt Ryan’s willingness to drop a roster bonus for three days, which gives me the impression Atlanta is looking for a freedom until Tuesday. At least one team has been linked to that possibility. After Josina Anderson, the Seahawks, who only traded Russell Wilson, called the Falcons to get Ryan.
I told you #Seahawks would ‘prefer to add an experienced veteran starting quarterback.’

The roster bonus being pushed back might really be that Watson needs more time to decide, but it’s equally likely that the Falcons did it to find a suitable landing spot for Ryan. I imagine Falcons Brass sat the veteran quarterback and explained the situation, he then sold on the idea of being traded to a Super Bowl contender. Either way, it looks like Ryan will have a robust trading market if Atlanta Watson lands, which only benefits the Falcons.
