falconidae Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 When they picked?I hope no Olineman taken by now means the Falcons are planning on the guys on the curent roster to be healthy and good.They may be planning to snag a couple of Jun 1 cuts.I hope whatever they do, they're right. Love to see Ryan have a solid Olineman and run game to work with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Mr Plow Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 I think the other picks were all of such high value that we just couldn't choose otherwise. We had too many holes to possibly fill all of them in the draft, but we did as well as could possibly be expected. I suspect we will now address the OL with some undrafted free agents and some post June 1st cuts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xiv_T_E_C_O_ Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 I think the staff likes what they've seen from the guys currently on the roster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atlGM Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Didn't like the ones available. I think they really liked both Coleman and collins better than anything else on the board Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oldskooler Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 I think Baker has compromising pics of Arthur Blank, and uses that leverage to keep his job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karst41 Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 It simply means that another draft has come and gonewith TD Ignoring the Lines.He continues to build based on Flash, and Quinn bought a bill of goods.It is now time for Dim itroff to GTFO Atlanta!

falcon057 Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 These guys or on their game, so I look for a h3ll of a UDFA class to come into camp this year. Maybe the reason for the late cuts. Great job to our whole scout / coaching team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiquidFalcon Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 They should just draft Collins in the 7th, We drafted a rapist the other year so why not a murder "suspect" This year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this team need one year in The ZBS to see what we have. Then we can draft some guys to complement the existing players that are doing well in the new scheme.

dcfalcons Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Good topic, I was wondering the same thing. IMO, I think we need help on the OL and was disappointed we didn't get one (haven't seen our 7th yet). BUT, I really like all the picks aside from the Collins pick where I liked Rowe better. I get that he could've been a 1st rounder and has promise and upside, I just liked Rowe at that spot. We still have FA money left and praying we get someone especially with May cuts looming (June cuts bumped up to mid-May I believe). I don't trust Schraeder's pass protection and who is starting at LG??? Baker?? If that's the plan, I don't trust Baker with health or being moved inside.

AndySG Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 They should just draft Collins in the 7th, We drafted a rapist the other year so why not a murder "suspect" This yearI agree. If he doesn't play then it's a 7th. If he does then we got a potential first rounder six rounds later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Mr Plow Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Guys, if there is ever in the history of TATF a guy that believes in a strong offensive line, it is me. I absolutely, positive believe that it is THE most important part of any NFL team .... but even I love, love this draft. I'm sure we wanted to draft OL help, but each of our picks were of such high value we simply had to do what we did. We still have plenty of opportunities to get some OL help in undrafted free agents and post June 1 cuts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcfalcons Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 I agree. If he doesn't play then it's a 7th. If he does then we got a potential first rounder six rounds later.Collins said he wouldn't sign a contract if drafted after the 3rd round.

Psychic Gibbon Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 We're good at LT, C, RG, and RT as far as I'm concerned. LG is making me a bit nervous since they seem to be relying on Konz, Baker, or Person to step up there and, needless to say, I don't have much confidence in them. They may fit better in a ZBS but... eh... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eastside_bird Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 not taking olinemen is a major mistake. very td-like, he still hasnt learned. its bad enough they are injury prone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiquidFalcon Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Collins said he wouldn't sign a contract if drafted after the 3rd round.Well Collins is an Idiot, cause he wont be a first rounder next year if he even gets drafted at all this year or next. He should read up on Matt Harrington the baseball kid who tried doing that crap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psychic Gibbon Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Collins said he wouldn't sign a contract if drafted after the 3rd round.Him getting drafted this year would be the best thing to happen to him. If he isn't then he's automatically considered a free agent and subject to UDFA money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has shown improvement each year and he is underrated in pass protection. He can be upgraded upon but it is very far from a priority need.

etherdome Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 I think that Person is a better signing than most of us have realized. He is not a power-gap guy, but he may turn out well in our system. Baker is often injured...to often, but, when healthy, can move. He is a candidate for LG. Konz grew up in a ZBS. Let's see if he can finally step up.

g-dawg Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 once we did not take an OLineman in the 2nd, it was pretty much over.I liked OT's Humphries and Ogbuehi (went in 1st round - thought they would last til our 2nd)I liked OG Laken Tomlinson (went in 1st round - thought he would last until 2nd)I liked OG AJ Cann (went in 3rd before our pick)I liked OG/C/OT Mitch Morse (went in 2nd round - WOW! - thought he would last until 4th)these guys went EARLIER than thought.
