SLEVEN Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 always liked this guy and would love the falcons to bring him in......i don't feel comfortable with the CBs we have now. They are playing well in pre season but grimes and houston are still question marks for me and i think foxworth has probably had some good teaching from champ and bly what do you guys think? are you comfortable with #20 and #23 or would you like to see the falcons sign another CB just in case?

BlacksburgHokie Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 Not sure how comfortable I am with the starters we have now, but don't know that anyone who is available is necessarily an upgrade either... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem is D. Foxworth is a RFA which means he isnt just free to sign with anyone. He has a great skill set was a solid #3 guy behind two very good CBs in D. Bly and C. Bailey.I would love to pick him up but it will cost us too much for a nickelback who potentially could be a starter but is not a bonafide starting CB.

falcontent Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 If the coaches are happy then I'm happy. The coaches have not tried to pull the wool over are eyes. They have stated that this is going to take time. I have to say , there does not seem to be a since of urgency to replace any of the guys we have.

Grimes and Houston can take care of themselves, thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decoud and C. Jackson in the 3rd rounds. I doubt we wanna give up anything close to get a guy who again is not a starter in the league. He is a good nickel back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrs falcon Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 Anyone know the completions/attempts ratio on our CB's this preseason? I thought they looked pretty good.How many TD's allowed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firstngoal Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 Hey, it is too early to panic about our corner backs. They have not given up a touchdown in the regular season, yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iloxygenil Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 Get comfortable, we have 3 corners who are better than this guy. We're fine at CB with the way they played in the preseason. I'm anticipating seeing how they do week 1, huge test. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Explosive xero Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 2 words chevis jackson amazing footwork despite average top speed he will become your favorire db. he has skills and physique a gary baxter clone with better feet. we got lucky in this draft Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
recaro94 Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 I love Domonique Foxworth, but as soon as we run out there and try and trade for solutions to our problems we're dead in the water. We don't even know if we need to trade for a corner yet. Its best to develop these guys from the inside out. I'm willing to 3-13 the next three years if it means turning into the Patriots Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
