He’s pretty good. Could be a cheap trade to help get our running game going. quickzero 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post ya_boi_j Posted October 17, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted October 17, 2019 why trade for him when you have 2 fully capable running backs on the roster deactivated weekly and haven't even been given the chance to spark something BirdGangATL, NeonDeion, arrogantBEAST and 37 others 40 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arrogantBEAST Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 WE NEED DEFENSE!!!! DEFENSE DEFENSE DEFENSE. Does Kenyon Drake play defense. Can he cover a WR? Can he rush the QB?!! Can he stop the run? Since1990, GreggT, NeonDeion and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monolith2001 Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 (edited) Drake is a pretty decent back and I think will flourish in the right system but last I checked we got five backs and really only using one of them .

JeffAtl Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 I don't want to go on about this as Drake would only be a rental and not a good fit for the current Falcons situation. But, Drake is a very good player. He is horribly misused at Miami - like most of the players there. He shouldn't get Gurley money or anything, but he is better than anyone we currently have (IMO) and would available at a very modest price. Running backs are a lot like QBs - their success depends a lot on their situation. Sidecar Falcon 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a great point. Anyone who watched Minkah's film over only the first 2 games of the season would say that he is complete trash as a player. (The Dolphin boards have their own PMFs and that is exactly what they did) It can be very hard to separate the player from the coaching.

Refried Beans Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 We dont need to trade for anybody, we need to be trading people, especially if we go to 1-6, I am holding hope that we go on a run of epic proportions and just run wide open on offense.
