Should the Falcons try to trade for Jimmy Garoppolo? FrontOffice33 | DirtyBirds
Garoppolo is a pocket quarterback that lacks the athletic ability to escape pressure with any consistency. It makes him a poor fit for Smith’s offense. Atlanta’s offensive line also leaves plenty to be desired in pass protection. Starting left guard Jalen Mayfield allowed a league-high 11 sacks as a rookie, via Pro Football Focus, and questions at center and right tackle still remain present.
Garoppolo’s current contract further complicates matters. The former Eastern Illinois standout is scheduled to earn a base salary of $24.2 million in 2022 while carrying a cap hit of nearly $27 million. Garoppolo’s representation is unlikely to find a taker at those current numbers, and the Falcons had noted salary cap-related issues earlier this offseason. Any agreement would likely have to include a reworked contract at a number far less than what Garoppolo is currently earning.
