AtlantaFalconPokerPro Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 Think he chose us because of the likelihood of playing tine. Well worth the risk for us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Reg Da Commish Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 I think he's deal might suggest he's work out were just so so.Had he really wowed teams, he could have commanded a higher salary and promise of starting position.So let's be careful of what we are expecting of this guy at this point.It's very possible he is ONLY a back up to Matthews and Schraeder and only sees the field if one gets hurt.

paulitik Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 Wow wow wow . Where's all the people that said he wanted 4 million ? Simply amazing .Wes Durham said that's what he wanted. He also said his knee had not checked out. A few days later, the news broke Dr. Andrews cleared him. That's where I heard it, and if there's anyone I trust in the Atlanta Media, it's him. I'm guessing his source inferred he was waiting to get cleared before anyone would sign him.That said, I'm freaking stunned it's that low. .

Carry that over into next year, and with Julio already signed to good figure, we will make some waves in the FA market. Will be a better destination for players after this year, as well. We will need to try to sign Clayborn/Schofield and a few others on the team though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigbabygrady Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 Questionable if he ever sees the active roster again. After the Long and Harris signings I highly doubt it. Can he really be worse than Polumbus though? can anyone? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hjerry Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 Can he really be worse than Polumbus though? can anyone?You're asking the wrong poster. He is incapable of having a rational thought about Lamar Holmes. I seriously think that he breaks out into sweats every time that he reads or hears his name.
