Oh4Real?! Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 What's going on with this guy? He's still on the field so I'm guessing the coaching staff isn't exactly pleased with his play?Anybody with eyes in training camp knows what the issue is?Is he becoming expendable?

Romfal Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 which player is the all pro again?You're comparing an all pro who is probably taking it easy out there, and only gave up a pressure or two and a batted ball, with a guy who got demoted and aparently still not playing like he wants his job back. I just don't see the arguments J Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don't see the arguments Jyou are saying a vet how got beat by a rookie sucks and I simply asked what it says about Ferguson who was handled by a rookie himself. If Ferguson wasn't giving his all he shouldn't have suited up so that's a weak argument from you. All I'm asking is does it mean Ferguson sucks to since letting a rookie handle you equates to that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Romfal Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 all I'm saying is I'm not surprised Asamoah is with the 2nd team, He doesn't look good out there to me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tribal Chief Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 pressure =/= sacksboth were handled by rookies. And you're right. Beasley was getting great pressure on Ferguson which lead to a sack Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh4Real?! Posted August 22, 2015 Author Share Posted August 22, 2015 That's disappointing. I'm guessing the zone blocking scheme isn't his strong point.Which makes me think he's actually becoming expendable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

raysnill1 Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 who gave up sacks to a rookie??on both Leonard Williams sacks Asamoah wasn't even close to being on him. first one was on Stone, second one Asamoah was engaged with his man about 5 yards away and Schraeder was there but it wasn't his man either.

jlrfalcon Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 Asamoah actually has a pretty good contract - did he get lessons from Baker on the retire in style while still getting paid plan? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Return of the Gaucho Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 Asamoah was brought in last year to run Tice's power blocking scheme, but what is strange is that many people thought his athleticism was better suited for a ZBS. It is a bit surprising that he isn't a better fit in a ZBS scheme. He does have natural talent though, and it isn't like his trade value is high right now. Either he picks it up this season as he learns the scheme, or he doesn't and gets cut next year, or maybe if we are lucky gets a conditional 6th round pick.I have no idea why he isn't picking this up, but in a ZBS, O-line cohesiveness is key. The longer it takes him to earn a chance to run with the 1's, the more likely it is he rides the pine until a couple interior injuries happen. God knows I couldn't take a 3rd straight reason of that... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PapaJoe Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 If Asamoah gets cut how much of his contract are the Falcons on the hook for?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
etherdome Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 all I'm saying is I'm not surprised Asamoah is with the 2nd team, He doesn't look good out there to me Apparently, the ZBS is not Asamoah's thing. I'd still give the guy a break. He is a tough SOB and has enough talent to make the adjustments. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jesus Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 He's someone that can be traded but right now he has depth value. There isn't much depth on the line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
