Pa_Falcon_Fan Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Based on NFL.com prospect grading, the Falcons have drafted 2 of the top 25 players in the draft. I know that doesn't mean much, but I have to say how great it is to see us picking guys that aren't big reaches anymore.I remember in years past looking up our picks and seeing us selecting guys rated far below where we picked them. It is nice to feel like we're actually picking guys where we should be now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McNulty Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Yeah we had of gotten an even higher rated player in Gregory if we didn't blow it on a worthless CB we don't need smh.230 pound DE FTW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trubirdfan4life Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 we do need a CB in the worst way. Alford is NOT the answer I can promise you that.we needed a corner, but we need more guys up front IMO. We didnt have a nickel on the roster so a corner was needed at some point Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THE ICEMAN Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 i think Alford has holes in his game but easily is the best ball hawk they havebut in quinns system not sure he fits outside i see quinn likes size and his guys to play very psychicalAs good as trufant is not sure he really fits quinn scheme either as he rarely press's and loves to play off can't do that on short yardage down thats about the only hole in his game though but in quinns system its very important to be able to press Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Osiruz Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 We needed a cb that quinn can trust, but Gregory would've made a sick pick. Now he'll terrorize thr nfce for a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RunningThePiszOuttaTheBall Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Alford messed up a lot last year. But he is an INCH away from being DAM GOOD. Till he closes that inch, he's a moderate weakness for us. But we have much bigger holes.This pick feels to me like Q letting his wants come before his needs. (Hope Q proves me wrong. I'll gladly eat crow). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Macintez Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Alford wasn't a world beater but he was plenty good enough.Wanting to dismiss a player who came from a small school after one or two years seriously makes me question some board members football acumen...

BirdBrain53 Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 I ain't griping so far I think we're filling need's and getting player's who can step in and play right away,unlike the last few years where we were seriously reaching. Now let's go get some big nasty's for the O-Line and get this freakin thing rolling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
