Nerdy Bird Posted June 4, 2011 Share Posted June 4, 2011 When or If this whole lockout thing gets cleared up, which undrafted free agents do you think the Falcons should go after. I really like Kendrick Burney, DB from UNC or Pierre Allen, DE from Nebraska. I think there is plenty of talent left for the Falcons to shore up their D.

Nerdy Bird Posted June 4, 2011 Author Share Posted June 4, 2011 (edited) Burney had some character issues I believe is what dropped him out of the draft, I think he was originally labeled as a 4th rounder. I know Pierre Allen had some injuries in his senior year and thats probably why he went undrafted. Not sure if he was projected higher.

Shotty Ice Posted June 4, 2011 Share Posted June 4, 2011 I really like Pierre Allen, and you can never have too many DE's. They are quickly becoming the most important position on defense due to the fact that they're the "anti-quarterback" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pzummo Posted June 5, 2011 Share Posted June 5, 2011 David Mims - 6'8" 331 lbs, over 36" arms, 29 reps 225lbs. He's raw but he's a monster and projects to the right side, where we have two UFA's.Pierre Allen - 6'4" 273 lbs, 4.67 40, DE. 3 year starter with a lot of production on a top level Nebraska defense.Kyle Hix - 6'7" 319 lbs. Started all 11 games for Texas at LT. Devon Torrence - 6'0" 199 lbs. Buckeyes CB. 4.5 40 but did the 3 cone drill in 6.75. Plays special teams and has very good change of direction. He also must have decent hands, he only had 4 INT's in 2 seasons but Tressel put him out at WR early one and he caught 4 passes. You don't put a CB at WR if he doesn't show good hands.
