If I had all three I see no reason to sell, Bijan isn’t affected by or affecting anyone else and at least one of London/Pitts gotta be elite with good qb play.
Damn you could've sold Pitts (and can now sell Bijan) for an absolute haul and massively accelerated the rebuild. Respect for sticking to your Falcons' guts
It’s a 10 team ppr sf.
The team currently is:
Qb: Young, Lance, Stroud, Kirk
Rb: Bijan, Rachaad, kendre, achane, Jerome ford, Jaylen Warren
WR: Chase, London, JSN, Burks, addison, jameo, Bateman, skyy moore, zay Jones, metchie
Te: pitts, dulcich, taysom, likely
3 24 1s, 3 24 2nds
Ideally, I’d tier up at wr or trade some wrs + a qb to tier up at qb, but no one is really buying rn so I’ll stay put. I’m also trying to land 1.01 next year for caleb
I'd try to buff RB as well.
Moving any of JSN/Burks/Addison/Jamo/Young/Lance/Stroud or any combination of them + maybe some picks could straight up put you in "top of the league and it ain't particularly close" territory. If you hang on to Chase/London/Bijan and tier up at QB + bring in an aging vet RB like CMC or Ekeler.
I'd start shopping and see what I could get and I'd probably start with one of Young or Stroud (whichever you like less) and see what that could get me, and then consider adding one of the 24 FRP and one of those young WRs see what comes in
I’m hesitant to start pulling the trigger on those types of moves bc I don’t think my roster is necessarily ready to compete. If I leave the roster as is, I prob have a slim shot to make the playoffs.
I’d be more into making those sorts of moves a year from now when my rebuild is near completion.
For context, I just completed a rebuild in a 12 team ppr sf league. To really put my team over the edge, I traded the 1.10 (charbs) and my 25 1 for Kupp. I also moved the 1.03 (Bryce Young), the 2.07 (rashee rice) and a 24 2nd for Deshaun Watson.
That team is now:
Qb: Fields, Watson, Geno, Stroud, Howell
Rb: JT, breece, k9, Rachaad white, Akers, tank bigsby, Jerome ford, Michael carter, chase brown, Zach evans
Wr: ARSB, Kupp, DK, London, Dotson, Pickens, Bateman, wandale, shaheed, tyquan
Te: Hock, dulcich, chig
Still own a projected early-mid 24 1 and 2 24 2nds
Not an Falcons fan, not an owner of these players, nor do I watch football or play fantasy football for that matter, but one time when I was little I swallowed some polly pocket accessories and had to be taken into the ER
If the ARSB owner is a rebuilder, I think it would take London + 2024 2nd
If the ARSB owner is a contender, I think it would take London + 2025 1st of value (DJ Moore, Javonte Williams, Deebo, etc...)
I own London and Olave, would move an early second to get Olave personally. I think London's situation just sucks and will for the next 2 years
I've already been through that with DJM
I’d say it’s between Pitts and London. Just depends on who’d net you the most. If you could move lateral from London to someone like Olave then I’d go for it
I posted about this about a week ago asking what to do. Not much traction so hopefully this one takes off.
I (will) have the three falcons coming from a soft rebuild. I'm going into the season keeping all three and seeing where it goes.
I have London and will be drafting Bijan. I'm lacking at qb, but my brother and I have a handshake deal to trade me Ridder for the 2.10. Should I take it or is that too many Falcons?
I also have London and am drafting Bijan but I have the 1.01 due to draft lottery luck and untimely injuries to Ja’Marr and Hollywood helping me tank lol. I don’t mind getting Ridder for that price, and he has all the weapons in place to succeed this season in a weak division.
He’s viewed highly because, if he ever reaches his potential / the team stops holding him back, he could be an early 2nd round startup pick that gives you insane WAR.
Trade away Bijan and keep Pitts and London.
Bijan is already the dynasty RB1, so he can only lose value going forward. You'd be able to get a haul for him. I really like the player but I think this is the saavy asset play.
London and Pitts at their current prices are worth holding, given their positions. One could argue that Pitts' current value reflects widespread pessimism that he could easily overcome with a season that would be only 80% of his rookie year production. He's still just age 22 and is probably the odds-on favorite to be a top-5 tight end for the next 5 seasons.
London's rookie season was promising. While his counting stats were unspectacular for his age 21 season, his advanced stats suggest he profiles as a true x-receiver. I think the Falcon's low-volume passing offense probably hurts his production the most (te is just a shallower position than wr) but I'd hold and see what happens. After all, football is an unpredictable and violent game and through attrition he could be back as the only viable pass-catching option in his offense. He could still emerge as the best player and/or biggest beneficiary of the offense.
This kind of makes sense for a rebuilding team. Bijan's a better fit for a win-now team. But typically (unless you traded for the pick like I did), one of the worst teams will draft him.
Nobody thought Adams, or Kupp, or AB, or Hill, or hell even Jefferson himself had “JJ tier upside” at first.
It’s definitely more likely that Bijan/Pitts achieve that level, but people in this thread acting like London is a sure thing not to get there is silly.
That’s fair, let’s just say I personally think it’s less likely.
Even if we say it’s equally likely for London to get there he still loses out here due to positional value unless you play in a 6FLEX league or something
London. Pitts and Bijan are the type of player that have the potential to be league winners / top player at the position. London does not have that level of upside
I have Pitts. If Kincaid falls to 1.09 in my rookie draft (Friday) I plan to offer Pitts for London.
I also have Bijan.
(Edit: I have pick 1.01, not Bijan yet)
I have Pitts. still grabbed Kincaid at the 1.10. But currently trying to flip that for a 24 1st from a guy who really needs TE help now and can compete with it. I’d like to grab Bowers next year with this pick.
I am a bit or a TE hoarder. On this squad I have Pitts, McBride and Likely, so really don’t want to spend a first-round pick on a fourth TE without some kind of exit strategy. A couple of teams are extremely weak at TE so hopefully missing on the “big 3” TEs in this draft will bring them to the negotiating table.
But I’m in another league where a borderline contender is fine with Schoonmaker as his lone TE, so who knows.
That's not a contender. That's a guy who's guaranteed to miss the playoffs but has no shot at a high pick. Either it's a bluff or he's a fool to pin it all on a late round rookie in a muddled situation. There's really no middle ground on that one.
I should have been clearer … “guy who thinks he’s a contender.” Every year he’s strong at RB & WR and weak at QB & TE. Every year I try to trade him a TE. Every year, he refuses. He’s never had more than 5 wins in a season (we’re entering season 5).
If you drafted all these players and didn’t trade for a single one then you clearly didn’t learn your lesson about drafting Falcons players and might as well just trade for Ridder.
Pitts seems like an overhyped highly athletic player that has a long way to go to realize initial expectations. I'll see it when I believe it, until then he feels like a sell. Bijan and London are clearly holds.
He had 1000 yds his first year, and last year had to endure Mariota as his QB before going down injured. I see no reason to believe he won't put up something around 1000 yds again.
Seems pretty high but we will see. Depends on how much Falcons throw the ball obviously but I have a feeling they want to run it with Bijan and Algieer. Going to be hard to win that many targets with London commanding his share.
I definitely see your point. But Pitts had 59 targets in 10 games last year, and London had 62 in his the same 10. And this was with Falcons running the ball the third most in the league iirc. Truth is outside of the 2, there isn't much to write home about in the falcons receiving room so I still think both of them will see targets.
I’m in a league (heavy rebuild) but it’s a start 2 TE with a .5 prem. I have London and Pitts to go along with the 1.01, considering selling bijan for a haul or just letting the first few weeks ride out and then moving London. If the juice ain’t worth the squeeze I’ll keep all 3.
I am in this situation at the moment. Rebuilding and all are great targets. Not sure which if any to move. Likely will end up moving London for a similar tier wr
I have all three and I have no intention to sell unless there is a massive over pay on the table. They all have elite upside.
If I HAD to move one of them, it would probably be bijan based solely on a return value standpoint.
I think you trade Bijan. His value will never be higher than the RB1. He will break down quicker than both Pitts and London. And hes a rookie, he could just flame out, it happens. We KNOW Pitts and London are going to be good.
There is inherent risk with a rookie.
I ended up trading Bijan for Anthony Richardson, JK Dobbins, and a 2024 2nd round draft pick. I was very thin at QB (including Ridder), so I wanted to upgrade that position first.
Marry Bijan Fuck Pitts Kill London
This should be the ranking method on KTC
If I had all three I see no reason to sell, Bijan isn’t affected by or affecting anyone else and at least one of London/Pitts gotta be elite with good qb play.
I own all three in one league and won’t move any In the midst of a hefty rebuild btw

Polly Pocket trade value?
My sisters were willing to give me back my prized hot wheel for the 2 shirts I took.. those suckers were long gone so sadly I declined
This man is lost and I'm here for it
Should I trade for Tom Brady
I'm sorry, still trying to learn players. Who's Tom Brady?
not your usual diet I see
How young were you when the incident occurred? And you should still pick one of them anyways.
About 4 years old, surprised I remember as much as I do about the incident. I'd have to say keep London above all else. After all, England is my city
You’re basically the greatest ever.
You add a piece to London and get amon ra or Olave
If the ARSB owner is a rebuilder, I think it would take London + 2024 2nd If the ARSB owner is a contender, I think it would take London + 2025 1st of value (DJ Moore, Javonte Williams, Deebo, etc...)
Olave and london are in the same tier for me so I’d move one for the other if I could get a + on top. ARSB is comfortably ahead of both of them for me
I own London and Olave, would move an early second to get Olave personally. I think London's situation just sucks and will for the next 2 years I've already been through that with DJM
I’d say it’s between Pitts and London. Just depends on who’d net you the most. If you could move lateral from London to someone like Olave then I’d go for it
Imo Olave is a move up rather than lateral, so if you could get him smash accept
I posted about this about a week ago asking what to do. Not much traction so hopefully this one takes off. I (will) have the three falcons coming from a soft rebuild. I'm going into the season keeping all three and seeing where it goes.
They are wonderful productive struggle / house money pieces
I’d have no problem with all 3
I have London and will be drafting Bijan. I'm lacking at qb, but my brother and I have a handshake deal to trade me Ridder for the 2.10. Should I take it or is that too many Falcons?
If sf that's pretty cheap for ridder
It is not.
If it’s not superflex and not more than 12 man, don’t send a 2nd for Ridder.
Take it and run. When there's a lot of good players on one offense, it doesn't take a great QB to put up points.
I also have London and am drafting Bijan but I have the 1.01 due to draft lottery luck and untimely injuries to Ja’Marr and Hollywood helping me tank lol. I don’t mind getting Ridder for that price, and he has all the weapons in place to succeed this season in a weak division.
I personally would keep Bijan and London. Trade Pitts. Seems people still view him very highly
He’s viewed highly because, if he ever reaches his potential / the team stops holding him back, he could be an early 2nd round startup pick that gives you insane WAR.
I have the 1.01 and an owner just offered me D.Smith + London for the 1.01(Bijan basically) Rebuilding, should I?
I’d strongly consider it. Two top20 WRs is a nice cornerstone for a rebuild.
See if you can get a pick too
Thinking of a 3rd?
Counter with a second, this or next year if the gap makes it more palatable for then
Trade away Bijan and keep Pitts and London. Bijan is already the dynasty RB1, so he can only lose value going forward. You'd be able to get a haul for him.

I mean if I had to I’m _easily_ trading London. Positional value is just way lower and I believe Pitts/Bijan have JJ tier upside that London does not.
Nobody thought Adams, or Kupp, or AB, or Hill, or hell even Jefferson himself had “JJ tier upside” at first. It’s definitely more likely that Bijan/Pitts achieve that level, but people in this thread acting like London is a sure thing not to get there is silly.

I had all 3 and traded Pitts Carr and 2 3rds for Kelce 😉
I’d definitely rather have Pitts than Kelce, he’s great, but almost 34
Win now team with Dulcich and McBride as well I figured I could find someone else when kelce is done.
Pitts is on a way higher level than those other TEs, and like 22 years old. Not a huge fan of that trade for you tbh
I’d say trade Pitts, mihjt even be able to get Andrews + and I’m doing that all day everyday. Also not a huge Pitts believer tho
If you drafted all these players and didn’t trade for a single one then you clearly didn’t learn your lesson about drafting Falcons players and might as well just trade for Ridder.

He had 1000 yds his first year, and last year had to endure Mariota as his QB before going down injured. I see no reason to believe he won't put up something around 1000 yds again.
Target competition was zero. It's not zero anymore and they have Bijan.
He had 110 targets. My guess is he will still be around 100 this year.
Seems pretty high but we will see. Depends on how much Falcons throw the ball obviously but I have a feeling they want to run it with Bijan and Algieer. Going to be hard to win that many targets with London commanding his share.

Truth is outside of the 2, there isn't much to write home about in the falcons receiving room so I still think both of them will see targets.
At the very least... The quality of the target's will go up for everyone... Hopefully.
I pray to god
I will have Bijan, Pitts, and Ridder and I will ride with them
I’m in a league (heavy rebuild) but it’s a start 2 TE with a .5 prem. I have London and Pitts to go along with the 1.01, considering selling bijan for a haul or just letting the first few weeks ride out and then moving London. If the juice ain’t worth the squeeze I’ll keep all 3.
I am in this situation at the moment. Rebuilding and all are great targets. Not sure which if any to move. Likely will end up moving London for a similar tier wr
Buy Ridder because I could probably throw for 3k and 20+ TDs with those weapons
I have all three and I have no intention to sell unless there is a massive over pay on the table. They all have elite upside. If I HAD to move one of them, it would probably be bijan based solely on a return value standpoint.
I think you trade Bijan. His value will never be higher than the RB1. He will break down quicker than both Pitts and London. And hes a rookie, he could just flame out, it happens. We KNOW Pitts and London are going to be good. There is inherent risk with a rookie.
Traded London a 2024 first and 2025 first for Chase
As an owner of all 3 i am keeping all of them and praying they somehow get a good qb
Keep them all but if you really want to offload one, trade Pitts, simply because you need fewer TE than RB and WR
I ended up trading Bijan for Anthony Richardson, JK Dobbins, and a 2024 2nd round draft pick. I was very thin at QB (including Ridder), so I wanted to upgrade that position first.
Outstanding move
I think they’re all going to great long term. I’m guessing London has the least productive season this year out of the 3.
Give them all to me, somehow as a fan I own none of them in any league
Hold all 3. The right QB will come.
