I don't see that the team is "hitting reset". They've cut some chaff, players that for the most part we've all been hoping they'd cut. They've freed up some cap space to be able to be involved in free agency. Despite what some people think, the team has at least one quality QB (jury still out on Lock, if he even stays), and a really good set of skill players on offense. If you think either JS or Macdonald are tanking this year, you're nuts.
I would be very surprised to see us trade DK. I think it would take an unreasonable number of draft picks to pry him away, for other teams to even try.
The hawks released both starting safeties. Yes I understand that one can't stay healthy and one plays average.
But if you re-signed Williams, and get Nwosu back, and maybe get another DT, NT by Williams, (Someone like Turner, Verse, Latu, Murphy, Chop) It will at least help our safeties and cornerbacks a lot. Applying pressure to the QB, giving him less time will always help the secondary.
Also, they have no tight ends on roster.
I think they just want to play out the contracts of Geno, Dremont Jones, Lockett. And all 3 of them will be gone next season.
It looks like a reset and it is a reset.
