brown bomber Posted March 12, 2015 Author Share Posted March 12, 2015 Bud Dupree has meetings with several teams set up after the pro day. The #Bengals, Falcons and Chargers among them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerry Maguire Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 I bet Dupree is higher on the Falcons board than people expect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcfalcons Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 I really like Dupree, I just don't know about him at #8 and depending on who else is on the board. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
g-dawg Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 I bet Dupree is higher on the Falcons board than people expect.would not surprise me......we all think we know.....but we really don't know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry Maguire Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 would not surprise me......we all think we know.....but we really don't know.Analytically, Dupree is a defensive version of Calvin Johnson at his position, but even more athletic. Quinn's idea of defense is to keep things simple and let players use their natural talents. Dupree and Beasley are probably very high on the board.

sdogg Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Dupree would be fine if Beasley and Fowler are gone and we trade back a few spots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZoneOne01 Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 I bet Dupree is higher on the Falcons board than people expect.Cosign. He has speed and length which Quinn says he looks for in pass rushers. Wouldn't surprise me at all if they took him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atljbo Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 So we are meeting/visits with Beasley, Ray, and Bud Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rollo lawson Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 I like Dupree. He kinda reminds me of Terrell Suggs. He is probably Plan B behind Beasley. Would be a nice Plan B option in my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WOR Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 If he fell, would anyone be opposed to trading this year's 2nd, next year's second, and this year's 4th to move up and nab him to pair with Beasley? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nevesmetro Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 (edited) If he fell, would anyone be opposed to trading this year's 2nd, next year's second, and this year's 4th to move up and nab him to pair with Beasley?Was thinking that might be our plan b after morgan left yesterday. maybe this is the best option for pass rush if the agents are adding millions on to contracts because they think we are desperate and will pay whatever for pass rush?

Jerry Maguire Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Just think, Dupree ran a 4.56 at 30+ pounds heavier than Beasley.

Jerry Maguire Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 No, just noThis is pretty spot on Yes. Just Yes. It's a fact. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falcanuck Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Yes. Just Yes. It's a fact.Oh really? A fact? I thought facts needed to be supported by empirical data and tangiable evidence? Not just some guy's opinion. Look, I like Dupree. But when someone says anything along the lines of "analytically he's Calvin Johnson of his position" I kinda cringe. One, if anything that would be Clowney (I don't like Clowney). Two, the word 'analytically' in that sentence irks me. Sorry, I'm kinda an english snob and thay word doesn't fit. I just realized I'm a huge brat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I think we do one of the 2:1. Beasley or Dupree in the 1st and trade back up to get Eli Harold2. Beasley or Dupree in the 1st and maybe trade up in the 2nd to get Preston Smith Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry Maguire Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 "SPARQ is a Nike-backed formula to test physical ability and is most known for being used on high school recruits at large combines. Whitman says that in his database, Dupree is the only defensive end to pull a "Calvin." A "Calvin" is a reference to Calvin Johnson, who jumped over 40 inches in the vertical jump while also surpassing a 132-inch broad jump. Dupree jumped just one inch lower in the broad jump and a half-inch shorter in the vertical than Johnson, who at one point was hands down the best receiving talent in the league. Dupree did all that while measuring an inch shorter and coming in at 30 pounds heavier than the freak receiver. That's the level of rare athlete we're talking about when we discuss Dupree as an "upside" selection." Not an opinion. READ first, brat later. Remember, this has to do with athletic ability, not skills at a position. So, again, it is a FACT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirtybird56 Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Dupree's athleticism is as high as anyone in the league. Clowney received tons of praise for his numbers but Dupree surpassed them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
