thats the other one -- reportedly the FO and staff wanted Stroud -- and the owner overruled them

100% it was Tepper. The man is a control freak and no way they make that decision unless it's the decision he wants.Whether others wanted Stroud it's hard to say, but certainly Tepper wanted Young.

Arthur Blank got the Falcons to the Super Bowl. What are we even grading here?

Stephen Ross lost draft picks for tampering/tanking.

so did Mike Bidwill, but im not giving him a C kinda grade

the Falcons have been a .500 football team in his ownership. Maybe better marks for being one of the class acts during his tenure

C+? B-

Seemed like a strange hire at the time. Reich has now been fired midseason 2 years in a row.
