Umenyiora joining Falcons on Sunday or Monday

As the weekend moves toward a conclusion, defensive end Osi Umenyiora’s time as a free agent is coming to a close.

Per a source with knowledge of the situation, Umenyiora is expected to join the Falcons on Sunday or, at the latest, on Monday.

“Atlanta is the place,” the source said.

The move will end Osi’s decade with the Giants. He became a full-time starter in 2005. By 2012, he was mainly a part-time player, appearing in every game but starting only four.

In Atlanta, he’ll step into the spot created by the departure of John Abraham.

Still, the Falcons need more punch from their pass rush. Whether that comes from free agency or the draft, the Falcons need to do what they can to help hold those big postseason leads they were able to build in January.

Ravens land Dumervil on 5-year, $35M contract
Ravens agreed to terms with DE/OLB Elvis Dumervil, formerly of the Broncos, on a five-year contract worth up to $35 million.
Just as some observers began writing off the reigning Super Bowl champs, GM Ozzie Newsome lands -- easily -- the top free agent left on the market. Dumervil will return to 3-4 outside linebacker in Baltimore. He enjoyed his career-best season as a 3-4 rush 'backer in Denver, leading the NFL with 17 sacks in 2009. Don "Wink" Martindale was on Denver's staff during that season and is now the Ravens' linebackers coach. Dumervil, 29, will team with Terrell Suggs to give Baltimore the premier outside-edge rusher duo in football, regardless of scheme.

Dumerville, Suggs, Canty and Spears. Some good passrushers there.

Notice how none of the pundits are asking how the Ravens will ever win without Ray Lewis? Yea, but go ahead and project Manti Teo to us at #1 overall again Kiper. I hope he goes in the fourth round just to prove how much of a joke the pundits really are.

Mother****erJones 03-24-2013 07:56 PM

Glad to see Dumervil leave Denver. Im not scared of Freeney he's 33. Denver is going all out so well see if we can keep them out of the Super Bowl or any AFC team.

Looks like the Ravens might get some good comp picks in the 2014 Draft.

Possibly a few 3rd round picks.

I think they'll probably draft a guy like Eric Reid to replace Ed Reed. Their front 7 is still pretty strong.

Mother****erJones 03-24-2013 09:16 PM

they lead the league in comp picks since comp picks have been given

mcaj22 03-24-2013 09:31 PM

i think the Ravens got 10x better imo.

all they have to do is put some young speed in the secondary to replace the old slow guys and hope that stacked front 7 does its job

Suggs, Doom, Upshaw, Arthur Jones, Spears, Canty, Ngata. Good luck they go 7 deep with guys that can push the pocket/rush the passer

If Vaccaro falls to them or maybe Austin or Allen and they're sitting in a pretty good place regardless of all those losses.
