ike barn87987 Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 Falcons training camp Day 12 Play of the Day: On a day that featured a lot of red zone action, CB Robert Alford did a solid job breaking on a pass from Matt Ryan to Justin Hardy in the right corner of the end zone for the interception. Alford has made plays throughout camp as he continues to refine his technique. You can see he has the desire to be mentioned among the top cornerbacks. We will see how he fares once the regular season comes. http://www.espn.com/espn/now?nowId=21-0688435556148844982-4 Check out @AtlantaFalcons's Tweet: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

droopy1592 Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 2 lock down corners, fast as **** LBs, some banging safeties and a good to great defensive line rotation. We are good from front to back. Teams will have to take the long way down the field. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

red falcon Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 Glad the kid is improving, he's hungry. I remember when many were ready to ship him off. Can give up on players too quick, not to mention those that play the second hardest position on the field. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LightningDawg58 Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 Alford's been a ball hawk since day 1, it was all about reducing the grabsies. His ceiling is still pretty high too. He can be an Asante Samuel type guy in my eyes with Tru being a Nhamdi guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BCEagleATLFalcon Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 Alford came within inches of having two interceptions against Tom Brady in the SuperBowl. Glad to see he's picking up right where he left off. (I have a soft spot for Alford. He gave me the best game I've ever attended in person, with the pick-6 in overtime against the Redskins to win it. The only "W" I ever saw in the Dome.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ParanoidAndroid Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 Rocky has turned out to be a good pick. His matchup with Evans still gives me nightmares though. It's a shame Collins never turned out to be the tall corner in DQ's scheme. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peyton Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 Alford's always been good lol. He gets a lot of penalties, and he probably always will, but that's OK, he is as good as you are going to get at CB2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
