ATLSlobberKnockers Posted April 15, 2021 Share Posted April 15, 2021 Really good additions. If we had signed Hester for the playoffs in 2016 we prob win the SB. All we needed was one good return.

Geaux_Falcons Posted April 15, 2021 Share Posted April 15, 2021 I really like both of these signings. Harmon was well regarded as a defender, and brings a true deep safety, with a veteran voice to the team. Never anticipated we had him in our sights. Patterson is a versatile offensive weapon, and of course one of the best returners. Something we have lacked for a while. These are the moves I would definitely say TD lacked, and Erik Harris will hopefully be an underrated addition. celtiksage and Herr Doktor 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Defensively, I'm not feeling good about our safety situation or DL. Patterson, we will see if he can add anything at this point and be more than a body. You feel good about Josh Andrews but not feel good about Harmon??? I am missing something here.. Herr Doktor 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Falcons are signing role players to fill spots and starters. Spoken like someone who has no clue how much difference real coaching makes.

SoCalFalconFan Posted April 16, 2021 Author Share Posted April 16, 2021 Now that I've had all day to soak in these FA signings I am convinced Fontenot brought some sort of black magic with him from New Orleans. Both of these players have the potential to make crazy great impact on the 2021 season. It was a good day for our front office.

It's also the way good teams are built for longevity. Giving players long term contracts with a large guaranteed amount in FA always come back to bite you. This and hitting on draft picks.

FalconOdense Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 We still have not signed a pass rusher in FA. Can we expect to get one early? Maybe second round where the value is? Herr Doktor 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has been a top 20-30 safety in the league since his rookie season. Agree with all this, but you were talking like he was a top 3-5 safety in the NFL.

#84 Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 (edited) This is phenomenal for draft purposes. We now have two solid maybe not great safeties but they can hold their own, we've added quality depth across the board, a solid runner in Davis And now have a kick returner and emergency RB in Patterson. The plan is definitely to look BPA thus draft. They stuck to the plan fill needs in FA address getting more talent in the draft.

celtiksage Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 We have a lot of guys at the DT position too. Looks like they're just stacking bodies there and see who rises to the top. I expect to see some cuts at DT after the draft and FA finishes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
