defensedefensedefense Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 I think we are ok with Babs at UT and Clabo @ RT... Its easier to draft a stud OG in the latter rounds of the draft compared to a dominant OT imoAlso, beastly NT just about have to be drafted... They just dont hit FA that often...

VTCrunkler Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 oh we do need a NT badly, but is Babs really going to cut it for us at UT? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
defensedefensedefense Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 VTCrunkler (6/10/2008)oh we do need a NT badly, but is Babs really going to cut it for us at UT?Thats yet to be seen i guess... He is also a UFA after this season, so UT may well be a need as well... Lets hope he has a good season under Mike Smith:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
defensedefensedefense Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 BillyWitchDoctor (6/10/2008)I went NT, C, OG, FS.You dont think Erik Coleman will cut the mustard in our cover 2?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Offseason Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 I said RT, RG, UT, NT in no particular order.i thought about SS, but i think DeCoud will at least be given a shot at that position. if not, then he will at FS. i could see us getting a good one next year but id rather focus on the lines.if we get a stud RT early, a stud NT early and then get a quality depth addition at RG and UT id be pretty happy. hopefully babs handles the starting role well.

The Don™ Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 BillyWitchDoctor (6/10/2008)I went NT, C, OG, FS.Coleman was actually a good FS under the cover 2 system when Herm Edwards was coach. Mangini messed him up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Don™ Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 UT - Don't know how Babs will doNT - Is Trey healthy?RG - This is a must with Forney most def. being gone next year. Clabo could also take over.RT - How are Weiner's knees? Age could play a factor and I don't think Clabo is good at RT.SS - Should be Milloy's last year with us, and will DeCoud or Stone take over??

Brian Posted June 24, 2008 Share Posted June 24, 2008 I did TE/UT/SS/OG in no particular order either.I think Trey Lewis will be given a shot at NT and we signed some big boys to compete for the position, but outside of Babs at UT there is really nothing. There are some good UTs next year like the quick Senderrick Marks who can be had in the second round. Either way we need a DT BADLY.I choose TE for a few reasons. Matt Ryan will almost certainly be starting by 2009 unless Redman breaks out lie Anderson did and a young QB needs a good TE imo to flourish. Manning=Shockey, Rivers=Gates, Rothisberger (sp?)=Heath Miller. We do not have a pass catching TE on the team right now and we really need one. Also, we have the worst rated TE group in the NFL in Madden 09 and I cannot live with that If Jermaine Gresham comes out early, he is the guy I want.I think OG/OT are equal needs but I picked OG because after looking at the Falcons current roster we have 7 OTs and 3 OGs, so I went with OG. I feel that the left side of our line is set with Baker and Blalock and hopefully one of the 4 centers we have pan out. The right side on the other hand is a complete mystery. Weiner and Forney are old and overpaid. Foster and Clabo are unproven. Hopefully one of Foster/Clabo/Ojinnaka claims a starting spot along the right side. I can see Clabo taking over RG and Weiner holding RT down until next year. Or Foster could take over RT and Forney could hold RG down. Either way we need a lineman for the right side of our line.I think it was obvious I was going to pick SS in order to draft the one and only Taylor Mays. The next two years is the max amount of time I give Lawyer Milloy as a Falcon and Daren Stone just got a DUI so he might not even be around anymore. Hopefully Coleman returns back to his probowl caliber form in the Cover 2 defense so FS won't be a need. I see DeCoud competing for the FS spot but I think he would be better used as a CB. With a CB core of Houston, Jackson and DeCoud we would three good young talents. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robb4242 Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 OG, NT, OC, OT in that order.Followed by SS, TE, CB, UTAll need to be addressed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
