Hartwell's first week with the Falcons

From Pastabelly's 3/25 TipSheet...

The defending NFC South champions apparently got even more than they thought with the signing of unrestricted middle linebacker Ed Hartwell of the Baltimore Ravens. The Falcons personnel people knew Hartwell was a productive player and a high-character guy, but when he arrived at the team's complex on Wednesday, the first thing he did was ask for a defensive playbook, and the second thing was to hole himself up in the film room for several hours, reviewing video of his new teammates. "He already convened a meeting of the linebackers to figure out a schedule for when they would all come in and lift weights together," vice president of football operations Ron Hill said. "You can't help but love the guy."

Too bad we missed out on this guy. Sounds like a real leader.
