Karst41 Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 It would appear that the FA Window for Grimes did not fully open for him.As I understand it, the Dolphins may be the only otherteam interested in him.If this fails, and we get Grimes back on our terms, there is always the chance to have disgruntled player in the locker room.I cant blame him for that either, but do we need a sulkyplayer in the locker room?If you do not like this topic then by all means, tell me why wewould stick with the 4-3,, any pro argument that mentionsMike Smith is a disqualifier.

xFalconLord Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 Not so much anymore.. I think he wants too much money and I have confident in TD drafting a good CB. That being said, if we can get grimes back for 3 million next year, I would pull the trigger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aftermath Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 didn't want him back last year, didn't want him back when FA began, my opinion hasn't changed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get the feeling that td is ready to move on.He has an amazing story, but at the end of the day, he gave up on the team when he sat out against ny. That could be debated had it not been said that the trainers/coaches went into that game expecting him to play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arabfalcon Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 I have always been a fan of grimes. He's a playmaker. If falcons had to choose between getting Abe n dansby or grimes. I'd choose Abe n dansby. Ino grimes chasing money which IDont blame him. I jus feel him n his wife don't like it here in atlanta ever since the playoff loss to New York Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RYNE Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 (edited) Personally I don't#1 I think he is over rated. A good player, but by no means a great player. He only had 1 "great" year in my opinion.#2 Age#3 Serious Injury#4 He obviously doesn't wanna be here that much considering we paid him 10 million dollars for 3 quarters last season.I know I know... you gotta get the money while you can, but without Atlanta he would have been selling Pizza's in Philly right now. We gave him a shot, we paid him. He needs to take a small discount and come back. obviously he isn't getting truck loads of cash anywhere else or he would be gone by now Edited March 27, 2013 by RYNE15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karst41 Posted March 27, 2013 Author Share Posted March 27, 2013 I would not mind him back as a player, but I just do not see how thisFA situation could not be a huge disappointment.He would mentally have to get past it in order to focus correctlyon the game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said, if he wants to come back to a reasonable deal, then I'd be willing to discuss that possibility. In his case though, I'd worry less about the problems he would cause in the locker room (because I don't think he would sulk that much), than I would about the wifey stirring up hate & discontent everywhere she could.

jfalconsp Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 If we can fit him in the cap on a one-year deal I'm down. I feel good with him locking down one side.If we wants more money/years, move on and grab a big physical CB in the first round of the draft.

xxstealth Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 He is the best Falcon CB since Deon Sanders, of course we want him back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only way I could see it working is with a ton of incentives and give him a prove it deal. Something that motivates him to prove the world wrong once again. It sucks that it has come to this but such is life. His story has always been a great one. I would love to see him come out and prove the world wrong once again.

LADBABY Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 I want to go bigger at corner, that is tactically correct as I see it.Grimes is the opposite of that, even though he is uniquely athleticand he can make a play on the ball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stolenn87 Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 A lot of you people tend to allow your emotions to make decisions as it pertains to the Falcons football team. Grimes is a talent. That talent is needed on this team. Who's available that's better at what you think they should be paid? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulitik Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 I'm not against it. He's a good player, I just have questions about his character in terms of being a team player. For the right price. Yes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
