Have to think Mike Johnson will step into one of those spots.

Yea that is true. I was actually thinking about Clabo and wondering if he'd be back.

Looks like we might get an 0-line makeover. Only person that will most likely be back is Baker, and he's been the worst all year.

Reynolds is a guy I'm really looking forward to seeing. I hope he's active the Carolina game.

if we are smart we pay Clabo and Dahl good money, let Blalock go, and let Mike Johnson step in

It should be Hawley or Johnson at LG next year. We don't need to draft a lineman unless it's a franchise LT, and that won't happen.

In the first round we will most likely go pass rush.

Stupid Panthers.

Well, that all depends on the CBA.

Assuming they are free agents, I'd aim to lock up Clabo and Dahl for 5m/year each, and replace Blalock with Johnson.

If they need more than 5m, I'd be inclined to let them go and run with Reynolds.

I hope it is Reynolds who does start if that is the case, although Will Svitek has far more experience. We will most likely lock up either Blalock or Dahl, probly not both.

Clabo's about to get paid. He's been elite this year.

Since their debacle of a 2007 season ended (see: Michael Vick dog-fighting saga and Bobby Petrino desertion), the Falcons are an NFC-best 32-14 in the regular season under the leadership of general manager Thomas Dimitroff and head coach Mike Smith. Only two teams have been better in that span: Indianapolis at 34-12, and New England at 33-13. Not a bad neighborhood to be in.

-SI

That is GREAT company. If the Falcons win out, Ryan becomes the QB with the most wins in his first 3 years, overtaking Dan Marino.

If we think Ryan is clutch during 3rd down and the 4th quarter, I wonder what kind of stuff he pulls off in the playoffs when he isn't a rookie.

Roddy White was at his locker Tuesday when he added just mild amps to the NFC South showdown with the Saints on Monday night. He said if the Falcons do not turn the ball over to the turnover-loving Saints that Atlanta will win.

That was just the start.

When ESPN analyst Trent Dilfer said the Falcons, who are 19-3 at home under Mike Smith, were not "indestructible" in the Georgia Dome, White lit up his Twitter account.

"No chance in hell the Aints come into the dome and win once trent dilfer" White wrote.

The Atlanta receiver, who is like a lot of other NFL wide receivers who do not use filters, kept at it today.

"The saints win one championship and want to go crazy well yall ass aint winning this year we gone make sure tht doesn't happen."

Here's more: "The aints fans are so rude ... we shall see monday night." And: "Yall (New Orleans) fans keep talking making it worst for those guys tht got to guard me cause yall don't. lol"

Will Smith of the Saints tweeted back at White, "Wondering how @roddywhitetv has the audacity to call us AINT'S."

White had some more to say.

"The first time we played them their coach gone say after we won the game thts a good win for yall like the saints are the colts"

Get em Roddy.

Bosanac01 · 12-22-2010, 08:36 PM

Roddy is better when he talks ****. This is gonna be good.

BamaFalcon59 · 12-23-2010, 01:58 AM

Hell yeah.

dunagan15 · 12-23-2010, 02:09 AM

Love it Roddy. Get some, if you guys don't wanna beat the **** out of them now then damn, that **** gets me pumped.

Bosanac01 · 12-23-2010, 02:12 AM

Roddy needs to keep talking **** like he is. He is the best WR in football right now, he can do that.

Saints-Tigers · 12-23-2010, 12:35 PM

i don't think you are allowed that much smack talk until you have a ring.

oh wow, everyone thinks the Saints are good because they won a title last year and are still playing well, what a bunch of tards!

Roddy can do as he pleases. Having a ring is absolutely no criteria for "talking smack."

And I'm pretty sure Roddy said nothing like that. All he's really said is that the Saints won't beat us on our home turf like some/most are predicting.
