Vandy Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 DE/OLBSOGTEWe have other needs as well, as this is a team deplete of talent and depth, especially considering almost every FA we signed this offseason has a history of serious injury iLBRbRTWR CB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam25 Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 Pass RusherOffensive GuardFree SafetyMiddle LinebackerI think you gotta go into every round thinking BPA available tho, so if a guy like Eric Kendricks is there in the second he might be the best choice for ATL. I'm so curious as to how ATL is going to attack this draft... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FalconFanSince1970 Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 OLB/DE - preferably someone that can get more than seven sacks a season. Rookies rarely do RB - need two just to fill out the roster. One needs to be a big back that can start and carry a load LG - don't trust any of the misfits currently on the roster MLB - Worrilow couldn't cover my dead grandmother in coverage FS - unless Godfrey is the answer. Need depth even if he is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Need depth even if he isI like this list , We have always thought alike.. Really I should have put RB 2nd because we don't have that one big back with bigtime ability ,,, This is an awesome draft to get one.... The good thing is that this is what I would call the best RB class I've ever seen as far as talent and depth ,, I've never wanted any player in any draft more than I wanted LT in his draft.. now people know why,, I also was one of very few so Thunderstruck on JJ Watts.. had him in my only Mock as well.

Now people know why.We only have two RBs under contract. We usually carry four. Sometimes five. I think Free could handle the load but would rather get a big back that can pound the ball, as well as a second back late in the draft that can back up that role as well as swing to FB in case something happens to DiMarco (Varga or Fowler). Here are a few options for big bellcows with starter potential. Some are big, but run like school girls: Todd Gurley - 6'1 222 lbs, 4.52 Jay Ajayi - 6'0 221 lbs, 4.57 David Johnson - 6'1 224 lbs, 4.50 T.J. Yeldon - 6'1 226 lbs, 4.61 David Cobb - 5'11 229 lbs, 4.59 Javorious Allen - 6'0 221 lbs, 4.53 Karlos Williams - 6'1 230 lbs, 4.48 Dominique Brown - 6'2 234 lbs, 4.62 Malcolm Brown - 5'11 224 lbs, 4.62 Matt Jones - 6'2 231 lbs, 4.61 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

falconfansince66 Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 FS -- Needs to be addressed ASAP.RB -- Two are needed to complete roster. Maybe sign one FA and draft a big back (Ajayi or Yeldon?) in the 3rd.OL -- Need a sure starter added and maybe more depth.Edge Rusher -- I'm still not convinced we're going to get enough pressure on opposing QBs.*WR -- Adding this in although it may not be an issue this year, but some solid WR depth is available this year. Probably need to address this now to keep the issues to a minimum next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FalconFanSince1970 Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 we have jj roddy hankerson hester weems and reedy plus a few others at wr. i am not sure how people see that as a need.WR could be a need for a few reasons: Julio - might want Megatron money next year. Megatron's cap hits are in the $21-24M range over the next three years Roddy, Hester, Weems - all old as dirt and likely to start declining quickly Hankerson - fragile as hail Reedy and Martino - unproven and possibly not as good as TATFers think they are Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AEFalcon Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 It's fluid but here are mine at the moment: 1. DE-pass rushing skills; 2. RB-big; 3. CB-to play nickel back; 4.

toadfishtom Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 Edge rusher- without pressure on the qb we will continue to suckInside linebacker- a thumper who is also decent in pass coverageRunning back - a power back 220lb. Free safety - a coverage guy with speedTight end- somebody who can do it all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
