Falconslog2005season

Man...it sure didn't take long for teams to start making moves in Free agency did it????

There truly is no off-season...this is why I love football!!!

This is also why it's so hard to predict from year to year what is gonna happen...the face of the league changes so much!

The only FA move we have to report thus far is we lost our LT Kevin Schaffer to the Cleveland Browns...my thoughts:

I liked Kevin Schaffer....but he struggled in pass protection (I haven't really seen anyone who said he didn't) and with an O-line unit that already lacks size...and playing against marquee players in our division constantly (Simeon Rice, Julius Peppers)...this was amplified....maybe he would have/will get better at pass protection...but our FO was right to let him go...noway we should have kept him at that kind of price tag....as is usually the case...I wish him the best in "the mistake by the lake"....

It is a MUST in my opinion....that we re-sign Brian Finneran...c'mon McKay...we need 86 back in black!!!

In other news around the league:

The Chargers are making a HUGE mistake in my opinion to let Brees go in FA and I think it might really bite them in the butt!!!

I can't believe Culpepper wants out of Minnesota....he's really unhappy with Ziggy Wolfe I think....and all that talk about Johnson possibly becoming the guy in Minnesota didn't help either...it will be interested to see where he lands....

Big sigh of relief that Alexander didn't sign with the Panthers....*whew

THe Redskins will have one of the best 1-2 combinations @ WR next year with Santana Moss and Brandon Lloyd.....MAN! 

The Bucs are setting up for the future...but still keeping key veterans like Brooks and Alstott....sucks for us!

2 months to the draft....Michael Huff would be nice....but I gotta feeling we're bringing in Jimmy Williams (we can't leave those VT guys alone)....I'm starting to like that possibility....

as always....GO FALCONS!!!
