freebird310 Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 Link to Bedwetter Q & A with Coach Armstronghttp://blogs.ajc.com/atlanta-falcons-blog/2012/06/25/video-qa-with-special-teams-coordinator-keith-armstrong/?cxntfid=blogs_atlanta_falcons_blogFLOWERY BRANCH — Replacing Eric Weems, the former Pro Bowl special-teams player who signed with Chicago during free agency, will be a priority in training camp.“Harry Douglas has done a nice job for us,” special-teams coordinator Keith Armstrong said. “You guys remember the touchdown he had for us versus Carolina a few years ago. He’s obviously a threat to score, and he has a pretty good chance to be our punt returner.”Dominique Franks and James Rodgers will be in the hunt for the punt-return job. Running back Antone Smith has a shot at the kickoff-return spot.“Dominique Franks has the ability to become a punt returner,” Armstrong said. “He did a nice job in college at Oklahoma. James Rodgers, Jacquizz’s brother, has been pretty solid out here at minicamp. He catches the ball clean and has some experience as a punt returner.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

since68andcounting Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 I think HD needs to focus on getting open off the LOS. He needs NO further distractions from his offensive duties. To me he is a guy who has consistently underperformed, based on potential.I saw Franks return 2 punts last pre-season and that was all I needed to see. He is a NATURAL punt returner. He takes two steps and explodes, just like a certain #21 I used to watch. Furthermore, with the addition of Samuel, Franks is no longer a (potential) nickel starter. So he can focus full time on ST.Franks is the solution at punt returner. Look no further. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
