THE ICEMAN Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 I think that Ra'shede Hageman is the most imporant defensive player because in quinn's scheme he can be a monster. he basically will have Bennetts role and as good as bennett is and has been he never has been that kind of talent more so very good player in a scheme that suited him perfect.If Hageman is good it will make it near impossible to block Beasley and he'll see one on ones almost all the time not to mention Hageman can move along the DL like bennett did and can play the 1,3 or 5 tec his best is the 3 or one gapper as all he has to do is get up field. he's also so athletic you can run stunts with him and beasley and also blitz on that side as well.Seems like Hageman really can hold the key to success for this defense in my opinion. I think they'll be good to decent if shede is the same player from last year but he could make them a legit top 10 defense and over night one of the better pass rushing DLs with him and beasley and i think Clayborn if healthy is a decent rusher maybe not 10 sacks but 7-8 in a good year.If he dropped say 15-20 pounds and became a stronger and more explosive athlete and improved on his technique thats pretty scary considering he was starting to pick it up and even then he wasn't winning on technique it was more so him just man handling guys and tossing them to the side.By the end of the season he could be the falcons best defensive player and one of the better Dlmen in the league because of the scheme he's in it really can allow him to be a force vs last year they wanted him to be a run stuffer and just get up field were i think quinns thing is to just go get the QB and whoever gets there first gets the sack not all this you need to do this to open this up for the other guy.wouldn't shock me to see Jarrett also have a big impact playing the 1 tec or NT on rushing downs that would be there most athletic line up in Beasley,Hageman,Jarrett,Clayborn/Schofield also could have Beirman and Reed out there as well and both are capable rushers not every down guys but good if they only have to go hard for 4-5 snaps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sun Tzu 7 Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 That's the great thing if you actually develop talent...You can go from having almost no talent to bring overloaded with talent in a very short time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now the coach can put you in position to get the most of your players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vandy Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 I think Reed was a very under-the/radar pickup that will pay huge benefits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subway Guy Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 I think it a combo of Have and Beasly. I can see it now, Hage penetrating the pocket and Beasly cleans it up. A thing of beauty! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JayOzOne Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 I think Shede is the x-factor if not the most important player. We can be a good defense of he's not great, but we can be transcendent if he is. But I'm going outside the box and calling Justin Durant's name due to his comparison to Mike Peterson. Our defense is very young and to have Peterson's disciple there to lead will be important. Second, and also outside the box, is Soliai because if he improves in this defense, his size and strength will require help to defend and that will open up all kinds of opportunities for Beasley, Shede, Reed, and even Peters.

Bobby.Digital Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Our #1 passrusher which is Beasley. Its the reason why I was adamant on signing a good FA passrusher. We needed someone to take the pressure of Beasley. I've seen a couple comments from people predicting Beasley getting double digit sacks which is setting yourself up for disappointment. Trufant is probably #2. One of our linebackers or Hageman is #3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
