Samuels A Falcon

[Ja Rhule]

Samuel contract will bite them in the ass in 2 years. Dude makes little to nothing this year but makes almost $8m a year the next 2 years. Dimitroff is mortgaging the future here. You need to remember that Dunta Robinson is about to hit an escalator on his contract. Samuel and Dunta will be the highest paid CB combo in the league.

[Doyle]

If they give up a 5th, what does that leave them?

A 2nd, 3rd, 6th, and 7th?

For now. Still plenty of time to trade more picks.

[Carl Spackler]

Would've liked to see us make a move.

Dont think McDermott was high on him in Philly so I can see why he would not want to work with him again.

Sean Weatherspoon/Akeem Dent/Lofa Totupup/Stephen Nicholas?

lulz

Weatherspoon was a top 10 linebacker last year, and Totupu is decent for his age.

[TheOracle]

The Falcon's have NOTHING on their DL... *nada*. (Abraham is still sporadically effective, but washed up more rather than less. Six games into every season he's done.)

And their LB's are average at best.

With a front seven like that playing in front of him, I think the chances that he'll perform as his same ol' self in Atlanta aren't as good.

What do you EXPECT them to focus on in the draft, if they don't have to worry about the secondary?

The Falcons have a draft?

[Ja Rhule]

Tatupu is washed up. Way below average.

they're going to be drafting for depth and potential. there won't be an immediate impact DL player coming in for them most likely. their first pick is #55.

[Ja Rhule]

Falcons need DE and DT bad.

[beastson]

I want to say overated, but I got a feeling he'll probably ball out this 1st year

[Johnny Rockets]

The knock on Samuels is he isn't a good tackler. Which he isn't. So, if our running game gets going against the Falcunts. We'll be good to go.

Worst tackler in the the league. Likes to jump routes and is great at reading plays. Gambles for the big play and gives up the big play sometimes in the process. If he is covering Steve Smith and Cam can get it to him without Asante jumping the route and getting in front of the ball, Steve will be off to the races because Asante won't be able to bring him down. I liked him as an Eagle because of his big play ability but he also frustrated me just as much. Also, he is getting up there in age and think he has missed about 8 games the last two years and only had 3 INT's last year but that really wasn't his fault. Eagles backfield was a mess because of disorganization. Interesting pick up for the Falcons and could pay off for them, or could backfire if he doesn't stay healthy.

Devon Still, Zach Brown or Vinny Curry maybe. There will be a few at that spot who could really help them.
