Per Tommy Pelisaro just now
The NFL is docking the #Falcons a 2025 fifth-round pick for violating the league’s anti-tampering policy with Kirk Cousins, Darnell Mooney and Charlie Woerner. The team is also being fined $250,000 and GM Terry Fontenot is being fined $50,000.
The violations are considered logistical/administrative, such as making travel arrangements after players agreed to terms, and did not involve contact prior to the negotiating window, per sources.
Vikings get nothign

That’s all they did?! Reports made it sound like they tampered well before free agency started. All that talk about the Falcons committing some egregious act was just nonsense then. It’s one thing to tamper while an original team is still negotiating before free agency and completely another after the window opens.
The crime was miniscule. The reporting on this was laughable.

And now the calculation becomes....is it worth it to get a jumpstart on our prize free agent if all we have to give up is a 5th rounder and less cash than we're paying our lowest paid UDFA?

Yup.
- If you want the top free agent, you'll only lose a 5th rounder. - Worth the trade-off? I'd say YES
