Dontari Poe to Carolina Panthers/3 yrs $27m

[Mojo]

Hurney giving us more D.  I ain't mad at it.

I really wanted to push for the Badge but I honestly can''t complain because Marty is putting in work.

I don’t get the hype around Crabtree. He isn’t any better than Fuchess.

I'm not that big a Crabtree fan.

FWIW: https://boards.atlantafalcons.com/topic/4061996-are-the-falcons-and-dontari-poe-working-on-a-new-contract/

There's other threads there on Poe too, but Falcons fans were dying to get him back but thought he'd take a huge contract elsewhere... If 3 years 28M is right then that's not a huge contract at all. Fascinating.

So we can't get honey badger or Crabtree but we can pay that for a dt. Can u tell me why we did that with a 1st Rd pick we just got in case Star left? So are we saying Butler is not good? Where are all the Gettleman nuthuggers at now!!! What a waste he sucks at drafting people!!!!

Star and Butler play different positions.

Was Poe really that good last year? I remember he was solid with KC but trended down at the end of his tenure there.

By the way, fug the comp picks now, we are done. 

yes

poe was a beast

poe is better than star

Like it or not, the philosophy during the Rivera era has always been to concentrate on the front seven and try to piece together a secondary on the back end, especially at safety.

Yeah you’re right, I can wish though. I guess they are looking at drafting one or maybe waiting until there are more cuts?

Star is older.

Wow didn't realize. Poe was drafted a year earlier that's why I thought he'd be slightly older.

i wanted the poe coming out of memphis so this makes my day

 

[Captain Obvious]

ooof!

[hsfolk]

what was the point in drafting Vernon Butler?

I think we'll sign at least one bargain basement veteran safety and I at least hope that safety is very high on our list going into the draft. Hell, I wouldn't be opposed to taking two. Even a Star/Short style double dip.
