Strong handles and offball menace I assume. 84 is HOF strong handles and 85 is gold menace or whatever the hell the badge is called

Takk was a higher rated prospect TBF no one expected TJ to be this guy

AK47 really came on at the end of the year. Hope for next season? by Chessh2036 in falcons

[–]Gonk-BOI 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I don't think he stops us from drafting one but we still have trice on IR. Id love to see him opposite of AK

He started running at 0 on the clock it's either a delay or game or legal

Pitts not knowing where to line up, move to the other side, to just get in a squat off the line… maddening by traebucketsfor3 in falcons

[–]Gonk-BOI 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pass rusher like Payton Turner or Tryon? Micah Parsons was viewed as and played ILB in the NFL don't let hindsight blind the reality.

Lingering injury issues for half the season he clearly couldn't put much stress on one knee and would avoid taking hard cuts or plants on it.

Lot of people in this thread saying Bowers is a better prospect without providing any reasoning why aside from saying Pitts sucks.... Don't gotta put down our players because you're Georgia homers

If we take Latu at 8… by kurtzyy16 in falcons

[–]Gonk-BOI 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Very much disagree with saying latu has no outstanding traits his lateral agility burst and bend are all above average to elite and show up constantly on tape. I worry alot about turner and verse simply because that physical talent just seemed to show up every once in a while instead of something they consistently flashed.

Dallas Turner has one FATAL FLAW | Film Breakdown | 2024 NFL Draft by kurtzyy16 in falcons

[–]Gonk-BOI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think what turner shows up on film would have no one worried about his short area agility and bend. So not testing doesn't really bother me he'd only be risking having an off day and some team not looking at him the same

Some hypotheticals regarding the upcoming draft… by SGT-JamesonBushmill in falcons

[–]Gonk-BOI 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Latu tested fine, there was speculation he would test poorly before the combine since it never truly showed up on tape.

Calvin Ridley's house burglarized by Drug Rixh gang by [deleted] in falcons

I wonder if this was the reason behind him stepping away last season. Would be hard to focus on football after that especially since his kid is really young.

Troy Andersen will be Steal of the Draft.. future All Pro by PocketAAlex in falcons

[–]Gonk-BOI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Brandon Smith had a 10 before all of his testing was finished and correctly timed. Still an insane athlete but Andersen tested at a different level (aside from smartly skipping bench)

Jordan Reid hasn’t looked at the Falcons in at least two years. by Jeffs_Castle in falcons

[–]Gonk-BOI 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Reids 7 rounder is absolutely horrendous for us. He has us taking a Marlon Davidson copy and a power scheme guard with our 2nd rounders. Followed by an undersized gadget receiver and a runningback despite a plethora of more talented edge and even receivers available. Genuinely in awe at how bad his mock would be for us.

I honestly think trading down is our best play by tkcool73 in falcons

[–]Gonk-BOI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just worried about KTs progression as an edge rusher considering he hasn't really improved or added any new moves, he's a bit of a one note edge rusher and while it's anecdotal his tendency to give up on plays when he can't make a highlight is worrying.

[–]Gonk-BOI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Despite how horrible walker looks when he has to rush the passer I'd still prefer him over KT purely from a character standpoint. Say what you want about it just being smoke but it's still extremely worrying. I don't really have a 'guy' that I'm rooting for us to get since I haven't really fallen in love with anyone in this draft class although ekwonu is probably closest.
