That's some impressive hyperbole.

All of his football knowledge is based off PFF, pay no attention.

Smells worse than Routt did.

Well Sean Smith started for the #27 pass defense so it's not a stretch.

I kind of like the approach.

Fill the obvious holes with decent veteran depth......Draft the best player, regardless of position in every round.

Did I not just reference McCluster having a career day against him in Week 1?

So basically because he performed poorly in their scheme, he'll suck here too?

Dolphins did not run an attacking defense. They ran a ton of zone. Sean Smith is a man-to-man corner.

If he's here, he'll be press coverage and he'll do well.

No way. Not even close.

Ya but youre not taking into account of things like injuries, pass rush and other factors

Do you think everyone in the NFL runs man to man defense every play?

And you have to account for True Fans, so there's that.

I'm fine with it. We need more depth.

He'd be interesting at FS.

This signing is entirely based upon the value of the contract and what they intend his spot on the roster to be.

If he was signed for a few million a year to be a #3 corner then it's a nice deal. If he was signed to five plus to be a #2 it's an abomination.

If we can come out of FA, with another top CB, OG and a good TE, draft will get really interesting.

Robinson help recruit William Moore

Oh ****ing puhlease!! Give me a break man. You were sucking Alex Smiths dick and now we paid a little much because thats the market and hes shit?

Hopefully we got him cheap. It's a loaded FA market for corners so maybe Robinson is taking an 11th hour deal right before free agency starts while he still can? Seems like this signing couldn't be any worse than Routt, however he might be for depth, which we also need really in our entire secondary.

Or, he might be an upgrade over Lewis at Safety.....

Ya maybe Moore. I heard Moore wants to return to missouri

Welcome to KC Luke!

It's a depth signing. He's versatile, can play FS, nickel etc.

Time to burn the midnight oil this will be fun!!

Dude sucks. I watch a lot of Falcons games and that guy got toasted a lot.

If we do get an OG, CB in free agency, we're about to hear a shit ton about how in love we are with Joeckel.


Whether we are or not.

I hate the name Luke

Better than Routt

It doesn't rule out a CB in the 1st round after a trade down. a 30 year old corner isn't a long-term solution and all parties know that.

At least they are being aggressive and shaking shit up. I'm not doing backflips about the moves, but we'll see how it all fits together. I liked the Reid and Dorsey hirings so I'll give them a few years and see how it's goes.

I don't like the Alex Smith thing and never will because of the picks we have given up. However, if you believe he's the best out there prove us ****ing wrong. If you think you can develop a 3rd round guy as well as you can Geno then prove us ****ing wrong.

This board has made as many incorrect assessments on QBs as some of these shitty GMs have. The difference is we can more easily sweep them under the rug.

Hopefully, we gave him an easily cutable contract and aren't gonna pay him anything more than 2 million or so. Guys like Gamble are out there that are of similar age and would offer more.

3 years for a 31 year old corner that got burned up the las couple years?

I'm not gonna act excited about that. Sorry.

TBH, if they want to take Joeckel, fine. Do it. Bookend tackles for 6 plus years? Sure.

It's alot to spend for a RT, but look at this draft. Plus RT isn't a whole lot different than LT anymore. Our RT is going to have to be blocking Von Miller for a while. He better be good.

I would agree with this.

Routt actually had a better coverage rating than Robinson. LMAO

I'm not saying Robinson is going to be good but one thing about the Falcons is they had almost no pass rush. The corners were asked to cover for a long time.

This isn't true either. John Abraham had a fine year.

He's a band aid

Real insight. Never thought that.

Didn't he shut down Cassel? We have that going for us.

Routt was basically the worst corner in the league so saying someone is better than him isn't saying a lot.

One guy having a fine year doesnt mean a good pass rush. See Tamba. 2010

Stool hand luke

I'm going to just blackout and pretend this thread doesn't exist. I can't handle another 100 post thread arguing about cornerbacks.

Boom

He's the only pass rusher they had.

So yes, he did have a fine year, but when Tamba Hali was getting 10 sacks and no one else was getting shit, were you saying the Chiefs had a pass rush?

No you weren't.

Flowers will miss a game or two. It's getting to be his thing.

I'm kinda looking forward to seeing who John Dorsey drafts at corner. GB had some nice hits at that position the last few years.

To say they had "Almost no pass rush" is inaccurate.

From a guy that never watches ATL. The pass rush sucks. Ass.

They had one guy.

Is that better?

Or do you want to continue to argue they did?

Can't wait for camp reports about Dex looking like a beast against Dunta.

"See! Reid is gonna make something out of DMC!"

One thing that is for certain, we will see 2-3 personal foul penalties after he knocks the shit out of someone. Because of that I kind of hope to see him play safety.

ROFL


Spot on

I would say they had an average pass rush.

Bet he was brought in to play FS.

I would say you're ****ing stupid.

I mean BOOM!/RAC

Atlanta had 29 sacks last year.

Not terrible.

I don't understand this tweet.

Would be nice if we could set up the draft where we didn't have to draft for need.

28th in total sacks is average?

Go fist yourself.

Bazinga!

LMAO We're not even in free agency yet and the arguments are hilarious.

Only 4 teams had less than 29 sacks?

Damn.

Uh, what?

Yeah, 28th in sacks is terrible.

Yep.

Chiefs, Bucs, Jaguars, Raiders.

Exactly they sucked in pass rush or they wouldnt have cut Abraham. You need more than 1 guy. Ask the Giants when they had Osi, JPP, Canty, etc

And we were one of them. :banghead:

This.

Our defense was supposed to stand up, figure out what was going on, then decide what to do about it. It's a killer scheme! :evil:

Let's focus on the reality: Dunta Robinson is shitty, and we can all agree on that.

It's a good depth signing. 3rd Cb, FS whatever.

All of them suck except for Tampa, none had a halfway decent QB except Tampa. A good QB helps with everything

It's what the 34 2 gap defense will get you.

Man this is depressing.

We need to find a DL who can get a pass rush whether that's in the draft or free agency.

Houston and Tamba are good but we need more.

Switching from the 2 gap to the 1 gap will make a difference. A philosophy change is going to help a guy like Poe, who has the ability to be a ****ing monster in the middle, a ton.

But yes, we absolutely need a guy who can get to the passer from the DL. Another one that is.

No way. All we need is 3 or 4 more cornerbacks and this defense will be raging.

I hope so, but I'm alluding more to Dorsey than anything. He's not getting a pass rush.

I have hope that Tyson Jackson can get more pressure in the 1 gap. He's athletic enough.

Dude FA Hasn't even started yet.

Jackson doesn't have that type of athleticism.

IT HAS BEGUN!
