atljbo Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 @SI_JimTrotterSpagnuolo is definitely No. 1 on Falcons' DC wish list. Mike Nolan could be No. 2.Sidenote: Mr.Blank was on 680 the fan.... He said the team cap will go up and we will have the money to be active in FA... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They guesstimated yesterday on 680 that we'd have about 25-30 mil to resign and go after FAs... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Psychic Gibbon Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 About 2 mil right?I think so, but that 2 million can be put to much better use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark0demi Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 baker, jerry, let decoud walk. im sure snelling wants out. im not keen on all the FA signing stuff but i can think of a few more players that might not fit into our new system, whatever that may be.

paulitik Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 I just wish the offensive coordinator candidates names held as much weight. I would love Spags or Nolan. I want a powerhouse who can get everything out of this offense. You don't hand the keys of a Ferrari over to a truck driver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Psychic Gibbon Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 Brian Billick... I hope... IDK if he would want to be an OC thoNo thanks. He's too conservative in my opinion to start with and he isn't going to be a fresh start for the offense since Smith probably already takes advise from him anyway. Getting someone completely new would be much better for this team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thiccolas Cage Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 Unfortunately, I see Grimes walking out of the door this offseason. I bet he wants to test the market but is staying low-key. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vdove0926 Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 If Grimes walks then thats fine, I like what I hae been seeing out of Franks and Owens especially when they used Franks on the outside and brought him in to play nickel and used Owens on the outside.I honeslty believe he may not be back. Looks like we want a D tht will ramp up the pressure. More pressure will help everyone and we can use the money we would have spent on Grimes and use it to get a guy like Carl Nicks if he becomes available.

Just keep adding zeros until he can't say, "No"The only way to circumvent the salary cap is to break the bank with coaching. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vdove0926 Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 And lets not forget with a guy like Spags we could use another speed rusher like Mathis and dont forget about Sid, he played well with limited snaps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
