Baltimore would be a tough situation: that team still has Billick's footprint all over it. It'd be tough going trying to implement your own own brand of football in there within the first few seasons.
If I were a head coach, I'd look for a place where I would have relatively free reign right away to ply my trade, to bring in my kind of players for my kind of football. I don't think I'd have that kind of chance in Miami, with Parcell's massive shadow looming in the background.
For all their supposed incompetence, Atlanta seems to have the best structure in place of those three franchises. They have a (too-) trusting owner, no entrenched philosophy (like that of Baltimore) and a fanbase that understands the need to rebuild from the top-down.

I don't think it's that easy for Baltimore. They can't even trust the QB situation, so I see many holes there, and it only continues throughout the rest of the team.
Atlanta still has a solid defense to build around, however, the offensive needs to be built, and that's not an easy task.

Baltimore is gonna be mighty attractive if we trade for McNabb.
