Falconsfan567 Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 Aaron Donald was a guy I was screaming for a couple years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bawse Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 Who knows where he'd be at here? Probably the same place as Hageman. Our coaching staff sucks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Negatorris Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 I secretly wanted us to reach and draft him high when Mack was gone. We desperately needed a defensive star on our front four. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DonDaLuvMaker Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 There's a very good chance that he wouldn't have started this year for the Falcons or would have been rotated at RE with Babs when rushing the QB.I still don't get why is Babs continuously being used like that.

JRid Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 Yeah, he is a beast. I really wanted to draft him, but realized closer to the draft that it wouldn't happen. It's amazing what he can do and when I would watch his highlights I would wonder if he really could be as good as what I was seeing. The answer is yes.

Our coaching staff sucks. no no no no no ... this is not a we should have drafted Donald instead of Jake..... We are good... I just liked Donald alotSpeaking of Hageman... The main reason i wouldnt cry about us signing Rex is because of Hageman...... Hageman shows signs of what he can do ..... Ive seen dude jolt the **** out of a OL with his first step and strength .,,, His problem is he doesnt know what the **** to do after that .Thats why he is so explosive as a ST FG blocker.. He can jolt a OT with his burst and strength and all he has to do after that is get his hands up......When someone can teach this guy what to do after he gets the O-Lineman on the ropes... He will be good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
birdman71 Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 He on pace to be defensive rookie of the year if he keeps this up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
putnam6 Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 He is playing great, he has **** good players on the line around him and obviously a DC and D Line coach who knows his chit too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I Even Bleed Red Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 Now that's a rookie DT with potential! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HEIST Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 He's a monster. I remember people here were saying his size would drop him to our second round pick lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lornoth Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 He was my favourite player in last year's draft. I liked Mack and Jake a lot too but i saw big things from Donald. Love to see him doing well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IF he accepts teaching.Hageman doesn't have the drive or work ethic to want to be great though and that's the problem with him. He has the tools but the mindset is not there. There's no reason he should still be out of shape 13 games into the season. Cox can tell him to do one thing and he'll ignore him because it's not in his own best interests. I don't know if anyone can change his loser attitude. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yo.. sometimes a guy come in hella immature... I feel like its wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy to soon to label him... Yea he is immature ... Detroit didnt reup Farley because they said he was immature and would come in out of shape (very very bad shape) but the guy was playing on a probowl level before the injury this year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of players start out really immature, but then find a mentor in a coach or player that sets them on the right track. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He will be goodHe's got a questionable motor if you ask me JBO the dude will probably go good if he has success early but if he gets negated I reckon he'll drop nuts and just be another guy out there.
