Falcons off-season thread

[Bosanac01]

Falcons signed Gartrell Johnson, 4th round pick last year. He's on the roster but probly won't be active unless there is another injury or if he outperforms Antone Smith in practice.

You guys think we have a good change in this one? We played well against the saints last year, but just came up short both times. We're not good on their turf, but if we have a running game we should take the win.

Johnson was a beast at Colorado State. I really like the signing.

Yea he was, he runs really hard, I love the signing. There was a reason why he was a 4th round pick. Has a lot of burst and can also catch, was a FB too so blocking shouldn't be a problem either.

Looks like we are going to have Michael Jenkins back for this one, and Turner will be fine. Erik Coleman hasn't practiced this week at all so William Moore will have a huuuuuuuge test this week.

He was a 4th round pick of the Chargers in 09 or 08 I believe. He was on our roster last year because of an injury to Andre Brown.

Don't expect much. He's extremely mediocre. And we're known for finding late round/UDFA RBs and developing them. This dude was just mediocre.

Definitely not expecting much. We have 4 RBs that are better then him right now. From seeing him in college, I just like the signing. He's still really young.

Might just by natural pessimistic views, but I'm saying the defense takes a step back and we drop this one 31-20.
