FalconinPA Posted April 29, 2016 Share Posted April 29, 2016 Yeah, good pick. I thought Lawson was gonna be a Falcon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Rock Posted April 29, 2016 Share Posted April 29, 2016 Yeah I like the pick too. I had Karl Joseph on my mock for us, but he was already gone, so Neal is the next best Safety. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ELux85 Posted April 29, 2016 Share Posted April 29, 2016 This has to be the best pick that the Falcons have had defensively. Safety is so underrated in a 4-3 and DE would of made no sense if you don't have a safety to relay calls to the defense like Patrick Chung @ NE who is underrated because of not his tackling but his IQ to relay calls! Great pick! Now lets get Henry, Cravens or Hooper 2 RD@19!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Day Hoe Posted April 29, 2016 Share Posted April 29, 2016 Heavy hitter replace will mo. Great pick to start the draft. Plenty of linebackers will be available in 2 and 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
insight Posted April 29, 2016 Share Posted April 29, 2016 Sorry at 17 team you need someone who can play in the box and cover. Neal is Willy Mo 2.0 and will struggle more in coverage. He would have been there in the 20's, needed to get more stout on the line of scrimmage and dynamic at linebacker before we went safety.

falconut1991 Posted April 29, 2016 Share Posted April 29, 2016 I don't have an issue with them picking him a little higher than the so called experts rank him, it was a position of need. If Quinn wanted him and believes he's a fit, I'll trust him here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The middle linebacker isnt the key, its the strong safety. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FalconFanForLife Posted April 29, 2016 Share Posted April 29, 2016 All I heard was "hard hitter but a liability in coverage." Kid will have multiple concussions and sit on the bench. Terrible pick with Lawson and Lee on the board and us one of the worst pass rushing teams in the NFL with Dummytroff at the reins. It's a passing league girls and we did well against the run. We suck against the pass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

insight Posted April 29, 2016 Share Posted April 29, 2016 All our moves this off-season have been fixing self created holes. We have not improved depth or improved pass rush or the linebacker position. With 4 picks left it's a very slim chance we have any chance of being a playoff contender next season.

Sobeit Posted April 29, 2016 Share Posted April 29, 2016 I like him as a player at FL. Not sure I like the value and 17 with only 19 starts. Without a doubt I think he fills a huge need but hope he lives up to his draft stock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
