Falcons sign DT Tyson Jackson and DT Paul Soliai

[hepcat]

Good news is Atlanta is spending a lot of money on those DTs and the guard.  One will probably get hurt, one will be a bust, and the other might contribute.  

[Jackofalltrades]

They're getting stout upfront, they already have a ton of talent at the skill positions.

So far their only loss from last year is Gonzo. They've added 3 very solid FA's where they needed them most.

Is this the thread where I make up reasons why signing good players is actually bad

Apparently.

[R0CKnR0LLA]

they gave out $58 million to two middle of the road players and still have no pass rush to speak of

 

good example of why you never sign players on day 1 of free agency

When you realize that the falcons are going to run a 34, and their pass rush will be found by drafting Kalil Mack, then you'll realize these signings were amazing.

One player dosnt aquait to a pass rush... Especially a rookie who I thinks overrated.

Lol. K.

Von Miller, Clay Matthews, Aldon Smith, Julius Peppers all disagree with you.

[Ruff]

It's okay you piss yourself in fear of the mighty Tyson Jackson! I'll be over here in reality..

You have no actual idea how a 34 defense works, do you?

For all of on here, it's okay to admit that a team in our division got better. You don't have to hide behind your delusions.

[Verge]

Don't discredit them because you don't like them. These are very good signings. Once they get an edge rusher, and draft Jake Matthews, they will all of the sudden get much scarier.

[R0CKnR0LLA]

a 5 year 33 million dollar deal to a one dimensional run stuffing DT that will turn 31 years old this year is a "very good signing"

 

ok then

[Porn Shop Clerk]

reeks of desperation

Cam running for his life thanks to Hurney (Dwill and Stew).

I like Soliai a lot. Pioli dipping into his Chiefs bag of tricks, not so much.

 

They are paying a lot of money for solid guys, nothing special. Asamoah lost his job to Geoff Schwartz and they're paying him 4.5 mill a year too.
