I’m biased but LOVE how this team has been constructed over the last few seasons with AS / TF at the helm. Really love the Calais Campbell signing - could be a great presence for the young guys this season. Here’s hoping we make a splash and grab Carter or Anderson to complete this defensive rebuild! Yeah, I'm a Falcons fan. Hopefully Campbell is a good fit. And this year for the first time in awhile that have salary money they can spend. The draft should be interesting.

I used to think the Falcons were pathetic because of the Smith family and I was glad when they sold the team to Blank. It seemed initially Blank was determined to build a winning team. Then he built the unneeded and unnecessary stadium and he, sadly, seems to have lost all interest in the Falcons. Although I can still hope.

I wanted Tyree Wilson from Texas Tech but when he went #7 I was happy with either Bijan or Jalen Carter. Allgeier is solid enough that we can not overwork Bijan like the Rams did with Gurley. Pitts, London, and Bijan is exciting. I think we'll pick up a solid WR and some defense and be trending up. More than anything I'm looking forward to my friends Najee Thompson and Amare Jones having their name called.

richk9holes Posted May 31, 2023 Share Posted May 31, 2023 Way too early fantasy draft shows which teams I think will at least gain yardage and score points, not necessarily win the most games.

Ridder was 2-2 last year, but naming him the starter early means the team should practice and build the game plan around him. It would be nice if he is the answer, but I think the Birds need more help than one guy, unfortunately.

I love college football but more often than not and like you said, it can be a very different game than the NFL. I have seen some prolific passers in college running a spread offense that usually does not translate to the NFL game. Not sure I ever saw better pure passers than Graham Harrell, Colt Brennan and David Klingler in college. A a Raiders fan, if you haven't seen it, the game between Fales and Carr in 2013 when Fresno State payed San Jose State was epic and one of the best offensive college games I ever saw. "With no fewer than 15 NFL scouts scheduled to attend, both Fales and Carr more than solidified their pro prospects. Fales was 37-of-45 passing for a school-record 547 yards, six touchdowns and no interceptions. Carr was 38 of 50 for 519 yards, six touchdowns and one interception. All 12 passing touchdowns came in the first half, as the Spartans and Bulldogs combined for 1,006 yards of total offense, 83 points and 45 first downs in the opening 30 minutes. "If you love offense, this is the game you want to be at," NFL Network analyst Steve Mariucci, a Bay Area resident, said during a sideline interview. Carr, regarded as a possible first-round draft pick in the mold ofDallas Cowboys' signal-caller Tony Romo, showed off his outstanding arm strength throughout. At one point in the first half, Carr threw the ball 40 yards from the near hash mark to the other end of the field and out of bounds while falling backward under pressure. Carr also showed off his underrated mobility, rushing for 32 yards on eight carries and moving well in the pocket to avoid pressure." silver & black and RockerFCC 2 Quote Driver: Qi10 10.5* ...
