Falcons a leader for Orakpo? Pass Rusher in play

I'd freaking hate to see this guy on the field for ATL . His production has dropped but he's still a pro bowler. Sounds like they are looking for a wideout in the first round . They'll get White, Cooper, or Green-Beckham. One the bright side a top pass rusher is a given at that point. Probably Vic Beasley, but we better hit a home run in the secondary department .

Orakpro would be sick under Quinn. With the weapons they have on offense, I am a little worried about what Quinn will be able to pick-up in FA to shore up that Def.

What makes you think this? They still have heavy needs elsewhere.

Releasing douglas. Roddy White old and injury prone also Julio has suffered major injuries. They'll want to keep that offense high powered. Don't be suprised if they make a move for Gurley. Also if walter Thurmond follows Quinn

They may need WR depth but they aren't picking one in the first. They still need defensive line help, even if they were to get Orakpo. I would also say linebacker (inside and out), offensive line and running back are a higher priority than WR. Roddy is still there; WR would be a luxury, not an immediate need.

atl has money to get good FA's. We do as well as do most other NFL teams.
The list of players I wish them not to have must be close to a 100.

They also need someone along the offensive line with a pulse

Orakpo has had injury issues at least the last two seasons. Atlanta can go ahead and sign that bust.
Quinn will have to prove himself as a head coach. He was DC for a stacked defense in seattle. He may not pan out.
Gus Bradley in Jacksonville has had little success, there are no sure things

If we get Orakpo, we are still going edge rusher with the #1 pick. I would guarantee it.

No they're not. If dumbass Dimitroff still had unilateral control, they might be dumb enough to look for a WR. I guarantee you after being neutered by Arthur, along with hiring Dan Quinn, they aren't going offense in the 1st round.

If Orakpo is the best that they do to address their lack of pass rush, then I am more than ok with that.

Far and away the best.
Below you can see him actually trying to Loomis.

Orakpo only plays 5-8 games a year and it's not like he lights the world on fire when he is on the field. Not exactly a home run pick up for anyone at this point.

they are gonna go heavy on offense this offseason.... need WR's and OL help... plus a RB... sure, he could end up there, but i'm not very concerned about 1 player... Quinn needs multiple players to be able to pull off that scheme....

We are NOT going WR in 1st round. We'll go DE or LB depending on what we do in FA.
