Move him to strong side on run downs? Thats an awful lot of cash for a reserve LB with limited physical abilities. I'd rather have let him walk and taken the chance at a comp pick. Maybe it's the devil you know scenerio. You let him walk and you've only got one linebacker with playing experience in your system. He stays it's at very least depth. He can theoretically swing from Mike to Will... I don't think this necessarily means they're looking at him as a starter. I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JDaveG Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 44 minutes ago, schwarzenegger321 said: Basically with a RFA you place a tender on a player which is worth a certain amount of money. A second round tender means we have to pay a minimum of around 2.2 million per year for that player. If a team comes in and offers more they could take the player, but they owe us a 2nd round draft pick in this years draft. We also can match the offer made by the other team, which means we keep the player. Yeah, I'd wager we'd match Schraeder and take the 2nd for Worrilow.

Dude's measurables are off the chart. Coaches like him. Could be because his perceived underperformance is still due to having a limited supporting cast.

The thought has crossed my mind that Worrilow would probably make a better Will than Mike. He would not have to line the players up and make the calls so his reaction time may increase a bit. He is overwhelmed with the responsibilities of playing MLB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndySG Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 Worrilow's pro day performance was outstanding but he hasn't really shown it during games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheap Talk Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 I thought Allen was a RFA? I guess he did not get a tender offer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be because his perceived underperformance is still due to having a limited supporting cast. We're talking about Paul Worrilow here? His measurables simply havent translated to any sort of functional physical abilities on the football field. He's routinely overpowered by offensive players (both blockers and backs). He struggles mightily in coverage. That dude is a liability. A very nice story but a liability on the field. And I understand why we'd want to keep him around for depth but $2.3m is a **** of a lot to pay for a depth LB, IMO. Maybe it'll happen and he'll turn into a legitimate asset. But we're far enough into his career that I'm not holding out hope. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
droopy1592 Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 When I see Paul burned in cover he's usually right there he just doesn't seem to have the awareness to be in coverage. I've seen a lot of passes go right passed his hands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have until the 9th, and he's actually an ERFA, which is better for us. All we have to do is tender him at a minimum salary and no other team can get him. I'm sure it'll happen.

xiv_T_E_C_O_ Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 I think Worrilow can contribute to this team significantly. As depth and he gives you flexibility at two positions. I wouldn't rule him out as a starter either, I think he'll compete for the WILL and with all our needs it wouldn't be the worst thing.

theProf Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 1 hour ago, DoYouSeeWhatHappensLarry said: There are three designations: 1st Round, 2nd round, and original round. Each of the three costs ~$1m more for the one year. So an OR is ~$1m, a 2nd is $2.3, a 1st is $3.3 (IIRC). You're allowed to designate whichever you prefer. By tendering the RFA at the given level, the player has two options: 1) Sign the one year tender and play for the corresponding amount OR 2) shop the open market for a better deal. The tendering team has the option to match any contract offer received by the RFA on the open market. If they choose not to match, they receive the tender value in return. If an undrafted player is given an original round tender, the team receives no compensation from the other team. The one spot I'm not sure of is how RFAs affect compensatory picks. That's a Prof question. Only Unrestricted Free Agents UFAs go into the Compensatory formula, not RFAs or ERFAs. Therefore, if some team were to sign Schreader, Atlanta would NOT receive a comp pick for his loss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Osiruz Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 2 hours ago, chhhyeahtone said: What's interesting is that they want both Worrilow and James Laurinaitis. They might actually be thinking of James as a Will and draft a guy early to develop as future Will. It's impossible to tell until the offseason is over I bet you their thinking of James as will. Read the peice I posted. They think he's much better at will than mlb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FentayeJones Posted March 7, 2016 Author Share Posted March 7, 2016 Quote Jeanna @jeannathomas 1m1 minute ago In addition to Ryan Schraeder and Paul Worrilow, the Falcons have tendered exclusive rights FA Ricardo Allen. Glad to hear it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KRUNKuno Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 Teams are interested in Schraeder, per McClure. I'll take that 2nd rounder happily. Schraeder is good, but we could build a heck of a defense through this draft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DMT11 Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 well if we pick up another decent tackle in FA - hmm and then get a 2nd rounder - that would be the same as keeping Schraeder and then getting a 2nd round pick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
