RI Falcon 423 Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 After the Hawks game on Wednesday, Seahawks DE Bruce Irvin, told me a very bold statement.“I’m going to be in Atlanta next season. I’m ready,” said Irvin in response to my question about where he wants to be after his contract his up. Irvin, who is from Atlanta, was informed by the Seahawks before the draft that they will not pick up the 5th year option on his rookie deal. Irvin to the Falcons has been a rumor more than once this offseason and the Seahawks reportedly are still trying to work out a trade for him.I asked Irvin if the Seahawks “showed him the money”, would he stay and he said:“Atlanta is where I want to be. Believe that,” said Irvin. http://blacksportsonline.com/home/2015/05/bruce-irvin-says-he-plans-on-playing-in-atl-after-contract-is-up/ Faithful Falcon 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Dirtybird56 5,238 Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 Where's he playing here? Can't ever have enough pass rushers but with Beasley and Reed where does he fit The Real Tony G. and Doobs 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Doobs 520 Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 Where's he playing here? Can't ever have enough pass rushers but with Beasley and Reed where does he fit that's what I was thinking. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Doobs 520 Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 Depth is never a bad thing.yea that would be an awesome rotation tho Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JDaveG 41,068 Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 Where's he playing here? Can't ever have enough pass rushers but with Beasley and Reed where does he fitWherever Quinn wants him to. A rotation usually beats hanging your hat on one guy. And Irvin is an upgrade to Reed without question. And possibly to Beasley situationally (since we don't really know yet what Beasley excels at).

Atlfanstckndenver 2,466 Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 (edited) If Irvin does indeed want to be a falcon there's no doubt we can make room. Irvin is a pretty **** good player. I also suspect he could up his numbers some here too.I love the clout that Quinn has with these guys. They clearly really did love playing for him. Irvin is the very epitome of "long and fast." We can make room for him. Edited May 14, 2015 by Atlfanstckndenver Quote Link to post Share on other sites

insight 1,732 Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 (edited) He would be a good addition but those who raised the question of where does he fit pose a valid question.He is looking for a big payday so he would need to fill a big role in the defense.

iEmbrace_life 203 Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 It would be awesome to have two true hometown GA guys here together, getting after it. This state produces a lot of talent in every sport but our pro teams seem to let it get away. Bruce and Vic bringing their home team its first championship...If the price is right, make it happen!
