i dnt think so... Spoon is in on a lot more playsbut i still think grimey is our best defender RIGHT NOW... Spoon couldvery well take that tittle but not yet in my opinion

Well, you are wrong, but that's ok. It happens all of the time on here.

Ugh... I'm hoping this isn't the same money they spent on Robinson.

I doubt it, but the contract we gave Dunta kinda screwed things for us, imho, at least on the surface. Im pretty sure TD is kicking himself for this one UNLESS D Rob all of a sudden starts to play like he's worth it.

Ive been a fan of Brandon Brooks all season... I know the guy plays at Miami of Ohio but he is a BIG mauler was good feet for a big guard... Its some technique things Pat Hill will have to work on with him but the guy is the big Guard that we need

I also think Amini Silatolu

JBO I herard Mayock mention this guy also apparently he's a LT and a NASTY SOB also DIV 2 kid so under the radar.

I'm still on your guy Anthony Collins from Cincy for LT also I think he's the guy.

I've also watched Cordy Glenn I'm on him also.

The Grimes situation well yes we do need him and I think if we have a look at the NO games over the years I think Brees know's also he's got to take care when throwing his way as I see after just about every game they have a few words to one another I think Brees has a pretty healthy respect for Grimes so thats a pretty big endorsement to keep the guy.

It's not an opinion. Sean Weatherspoon is the best player we have on defense. Don't believe me, go here...

I don't care about any of this stat boy! You all love to pull your little stats out to prove what? That he's going to still be a liability on the defense? I see you didn't answer any of the obvious concerning him getting abused by teams with heavy passing games (NO, GB). How did he do against the Giants? Oh he decided to sit that one out I forgot. No need to curse son...shows your immaturity. Grow up. Don't get mad because everyone doesn't love the little hobbit.

Lol you have no idea what you are talking about. You lost the argument, just stop before you make yourself look even more dumb.

So Chris Owens is better than Weatherspoon?

wow really?? Im not even going to continue this conversation with such a rediculous question.. nvm ill say this...

Production wise brent is our best defender for the last two or threes years... Spoon had a good year but you cnt annlint someone being the best after one year on a team thats has playmakers.... IMO!

"Those are difficult discussions to have because they are high dollar discussions,"

Huh?

Toney G. is 35 years old and he got $7.5 mil like it wasn't nothing. It sure didn't seem llike those were difficult discussions. The falcons always take care of the guys that get their picture taken (ie guys that are seen with the football in their hands). This is very amateurish and it is obvious a lot of players sense it and are sick of it. I've never heard an entire collection of falcons free agents have the sentiment that these guys do. But I can't blame them.

Whats goin' on fellas... been traveling too much and konking out in hotel rooms before I get logged on.

My take on Grimes is that I feel the guy is blessed with God given talent and athleticism and bleeds crowning achievement. A guy doesn't get to where he is at without heart and determination. He plays a big mans game and is a difference maker. He's not a quitter.

If it weren't for the Atlanta Falcons seeing a glittering jewel he probably would not be playing pro football and I sincerely hope he remembers that during his quiet time away from the pressures of the negotiating table. I know his agents do the talking on his behalf but ultimately they must listen to the player. I want him back, he has been tops in the league with half a pass rush!!

I really like the way the draft may play out with guards gents. Did you get a load of those guns on Brandon Brooks!!wub.png Silatolu and Brooks could be there for the taking in a deep G class this draft season. I wish we could cut DRob and sign Finegan for his kind of money ( never thought I would ever say that) But he is the type that you hate unless he is on your side.

LT and our MLB are gonna complicate things this offseason. Maybe Ryan and Drob will restructure some... Glad I am not TD but this is where he earns his money...

If you run a 4-3 defense and your outside linebacker is your best player, without being all-pro, you are in BIG TROUBLE.

Outside linebacker is the LEAST important spot in a 4-3.

GTOH - Wasting time? Really, get freaking real someone! I guess it just dawned on the powers to be that the man's contract is now at a end! My goodness, the sheer stupidity of this organization at times astounds me. Hopefully, it's not too late to salvage the only bright spot in our secondary.

Huh? Willie Mo is still under contract.

Yeah you're right, maybe I should have phrased it somethng along the lines of "one of two bright spots in our secondary", didn't mean to slight Willie Mo. My only problem is it shouldn't have came down to this, he should have been locked into a new contract last year.

Based off Weatherspoon's season this past year and how he's likely to progress, I'd say he would probably be the best defender on a few 4-3 teams, such as the 6th overall ranked Jaguars defense.

Nope. Sean Weatherspoon= the best player on our defense.
like i said.. cb is harder to be grwat at the LB.. the value of playing cb is far greater then playin LB... Its common sense this is a spacing game and the more space you play in requires more from that player..

Grimey should have been to at least two pro bowls and you see how important the falcons think he is for us.. yes the lil guy is our best defender right now... Its not about just making tackles.. INTs a FAR more important then just a simple tackle, or sacking a QB.. if you dnt agree with that then you really dnt understand football and i have nothing else to say...

And what are you talking about? I love all you little MB experts pulling out your stats and trying to justify that Grimes is a top CB in the league. I guess in your minds. There's no argument to win. I have my views just like some of you have yours. We'll see how things turn out...only time will tell.

give grimes credit wher its due.. you dnt make the pro bowl unless other team coaches and players think your top of your position.. this isnt like NBA where fans get the power to vote. Thats all the respect shown right there.. then goes out and gets a pick in the pro bwl.. the kid can ball so lets give him his due.. obviously the falcons are willing to invest heavly in cb position because it is SOOO obvious that grimes is our best CB on the team since deion....
