Matt Ryan overthrowing will hold Julio back more than any defense

With that being said how good are the CBS he's going against. He is a physical specimen but he is still a rookie for this season. We will see.

Look Julio could be a GREAT player IF he stays healthy......but i really dont think hes ever done that before. I wish him luck just not against the Saints.

Granted I do believe Julio is going to be very good. Hate that the falcons drafted him....love it that they gave up too much and that their defense is the real problem...

The krewe de Drew is still the offense to watch in the NFL

Actually,
That's a good point. Brent Grimes still hasn't resigned with the Falcons so the corners he's going against are, meh...

Matt Ryan and the Falcons WR's are legit. Take no credit away from them. Saints need to get better at pressuring the quarterback and forcing Ryan into bad throws or bad judgements. If not, they WILL make plays on our D... on most everyone's D!

And I think that a legitimate WR threat opens things up for their running game.

They still over paid, though.

Julio Jones may be the best bang for the buck WR in the NFL w/ the rookie contract though.

Look where we're we've gotten guys like nicks, Colston, Evans, Harper, Graham, etc...

They way overpaid at the expense of becoming a long term contender.

The burner or roddy thug goes down and they have zero depth

ONE injury on defense and they are royally screwed


Guys like turner & gonzo (integral parts of their offense) are on borrowed time that may already be up...

Wrong time to give up a kings ransom for a WR

If anything I'm a lot more nervous Roddy/Julio will outrun anything Matt Ryan can throw.

Simply. Not. True.
We've recruited DE's and LBs the last 2 drafts as well as Kroy Biermann adding a TON of depth/freshness of legs at the DE position. If anything we might be a little young in the DB position but that's why they're still trying to re-sign Brent Grimes as a FA rather than a UFA.

My God yall are taking the thug comment way to serious. It was just a name to call him. Would you rather me call him a fig, Colon Commander, Anal Admiral, Butt Slut or Pillow Bitter?

I could not care less if that dude is thug or not. One thing I do know is if he hangs around with Thug arse White. He will be one soon. And yes I called White a Thug!

haha.

He actually was on the chopping block but they signed him to a 1 yr contract. Believe he's still 3rd string but apparently they're high on some undrafted rookie they signed...

Receivers typically have a pretty hard time adjusting to the NFL. Not many are rookie wonders. Julio has some serious talent, but even Jerry Rice had to adjust to the NFL.
