In Light Of The Osi Signing Do Any Of You Legitimately Think


Recommended Posts

If Bjoern and Trufant are there at 30 we should take Trufant?

I say it would be an absolute no brainer to take Werner but it seems some on this board are so in love with Trufant they want him regardless of the DE talent at 30. I believe we could find a perfectly capable 3rd cb in the 4th and let McClain start. Go Werner, NT, OLB. CB. Just wanted to see your thoughts

Of course I would love to be wrong, but I don't believe Werner is gonna be there when we pick unfortunately. You can say his stock is falling all you like, but usually the tape never lies. And his looks pretty d*mn solid. If Trufant is there I would take him barring any other Dimi moves. As of right now, our cornerback situation doesn't look as good as it was last year. This draft is is just so loaded in terms of value that we could still get a good quality player in the second round. Heck I wouldn't mind that we take a linebacker in the first round as well. That is just my two cents

Trufant won't pass thru the Falcon Filter!

If Bjoern is there, then we'd better take him. We can get another CB in a later rounds.

DE is still the #1 need on this team. CB has to be a close 2nd, but I would not rule out LB or DT. Falcons have options. I really don't think they will take a TE at 30. I could see them moving back or up to get somebody, but I don't think at this point we will take an offensive player with our first pick.

We have the same needs after the Osi signing as we

did before, he just fills the gap left by Abe's departure.

So as the draft comes to us at 30 we pick the best player

available at CB or DE. There also may be somebody they think is

special at some other position who falls to us and is just too good

to pass on. I think we will be able to field a team.

Werner no doubt. We have one proven pass rusher on this team so far. Biermann is good, but is used in other areas alot. McClain will be a better CB than Dunta was. Our starting corners are already better if McClain starts over Dunta. Some think he can't play on the outside, i disagree. But if we do choose to go CB first then i think that obviously means I am wrong about McClain and they prefer him in the slot.

Trufant isn't very strong when he tackles, he'll get destroyed in the NFL when it comes to that, so he better not let anyone catch the ball. Additionally, he gets by with a lot of interference and that kinda stuff. I will say this, he has improved quite a bit since his sophomore season:

Sophomore:

2012:

To be honest, as long as we get the best DE, CB, or LB available, I could care less. Just get a playmaker, whether it be Werner, Trufant, or Ogletree. I'd be happy with John Jenkins too.

This is how I see it too. Then in the second round you take that position out of the mix

and do it again. Get 2 or 3 playmakers in this draft and some fresh prospects and we

have done what we can do.
