Can't wait for the season

To start

The old Quizz. I hope this version shows up instead of that pussyfooting nigga that wore his jersey last year

 

[greenwood1921]

Unfortunately, I think Quizz reached his ceiling that year. Maybe it was shitty O-line, but he looked like he had no burst. I guarantee Barry Sanders or Herchel Walker TODAY could've did just as much as him last year.

Like he aged 8 years in one offseason.

 

[greenwood1921]

I'll have my eye on Darius Johnson this year in preseason and camps.

If he plays like he did last year with Julio and Roddy at full strength = problem.

Besides, Allday's favorite receiver will have to have a career year to stay on the roster for 2015.

 

[greenwood1921]

Well Damn.

Now Julio Jones' brother got shot and lost his arm...

Report from 1st day of OTAs

1. When defensive coordinator Mike Nolan screamed out "base defense" midway through practice, the Falcons move into a 3-4 setup with Tyson Jackson, Paul Soliai and Jonathan Babineaux up front, Paul Worrilow and Joplo Bartu as the inside linebackers, and Stansly Maponga and Jonathan Massaquoi rushing as outside linebackers.

2. Left tackle Sam Baker seemed to move around fine coming off what he called a complicated knee surgery. He did not wear a knee brace and practiced the entire two hours without noticeably sitting out reps. Smith felt Baker moved around "extremely well" on Wednesday.

3. Speaking of reps, tight end Levine Toilolo had an undisclosed injury that limited his reps, and he spent time with the training staff during the session. Bear Pascoe and Mickey Shuler got a lot of work as the blocking tight ends in double-tight end sets.

4. Outside linebacker Kroy Biermann, in his return from an Achilles' tear, had a pretty light day of work. He did spend extensive time early in practice working on his swim move with outside linebackers coach Mark Collins.

5. Another player emphasizing his technique was pass-rusher Osi Umenyiora, who worked on his spin move during a break in between individual drills. Umenyiora did individuals with the defensive tackles and defensive ends rather than the outside linebackers.

6. Rookie Prince Shembo, who appeared to line up more at outside linebacker during rookie minicamp, spent the majority of the day at inside linebacker. He did individual drills with the inside linebackers.

7. Free safety Dwight Lowery, a veteran signed this offseason, picked off a Matt Ryan pass that seemed to be a more of a miscommunication between Ryan and the receiver. Lowery spent the entire day with the first-team defense alongside strong safety William Moore.

8. Rookie defensive end Ra'Shede Hageman started yelling at himself after messing up one play. He seems to be really hard on himself. Nolan and defensive line coach Bryan Cox had to calm him down.

9. There were a couple of skirmishes. Shuler and Maponga got into it after Shuler pushed Maponga to the ground after the whistle. Earlier, offensive tackle Terren Jones mixed it up with defensive end Nosa Eguae.

10. Rookie offensive tackle Jake Matthews showed great quickness throughout the day and looked more like a veteran next to the other four offensive linemen. Another rookie who stood out was cornerback Ricardo Allen, who made a tremendous play on the ball during one-on-one coverage drills.

Pffft.

If Bryan Cox gotta calm YOU down -- you need to get help.

I read somewhere that we were suppose to have close to 12 million after the 2nd when DeCouldnts money came off the books as a post June 2nd cut.

Nice. I think a Roddy extension will bump that up even more. A Julio extension right now might take a few million off of it tho. But it won't kill it.

NFL extensions help cap numbers initially.

 

[ya boi g]

Look like Worrilow got bigger. I was hoping him and Bartu got stronger and bigger in the offseason....

 

[ya boi g]

Its confirmed that Shembo hs been moved to the inside. Between him, Spoon, Worrilow, Bartu and Dent somebody gettin cutt. My money on Dent....

 

[greenwood1921]

Yeah, it might be Dent, but more for financial reasons. His rookie contract is tickin' up to some decent money.

Still ain't 100% sold on Worrilow Brooking. If I see him make some tackles within 8 yards of the line of scrimmage I might change my tune.

 

[greenwood1921]

Yeah, I saw him make a couple plays. Same with Dent. I prefer Dent cause he's a pure down-hill MLB. He might over pursue alot, but when he square up, he can shut some plays down short.

Worrilow be just chasing down tackles down-field like a Tecmo Bowl defender. lol

 

[Livefromclayco]

Worrilow gotta show me cause all I saw last year was him jumping on piles 5-10 yards downfield.

If Jop don't get moved outside I can see him taking that spot

 

[ya boi g]

Well Dent gonna make the team now. Im sure yall heard Sean Weatherspoon a.k.a mr glass out for the season. Asshole got hurt working with the medical staff... Doubt there is anyone out there we can bring in at this point.

 

[ya boi g]

As far as Dent he disapointed me. At Georgia he was a prett good LB. But at this point he is what he is, id rather take my lumps with these younger guys who still has some room to grow. But its all a mute point now.

 

[Livefromclayco]

Smh this nigga the real life Mr Glass

At least we don't have to worry about paying him top dollar next year
