DM316 Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 What's everyone looking for??? I know the O Line needs to be settled. Personally, I'd like to see Allgeier establish himself as the primary ballcarrier allowing Patterson to settle into his more natural "weapon" role and Ebiketie/Malone to show some flashes rushing the passer.

SteelKing728 Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 I really hope Ridder works out for Atlanta! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iloxygenil Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 Franks is absolutely awful at QB lol. I think he’s getting cut as soon as Thursday’s game is over. Ridder has looked so sharp. Especially in this game today. Extremely accurate and tons of zip and you could see improvement even in the same game. Saw the same thing twice and went from a crap rep to a good rep.

I don't mind a QB in the 3rd round, it's essentially one of those "this is the best guy on the board, by a full round or more. Let's roll the dice" so that didn't bother me. Plus if you can win 44 games at Cincinnati... can't lie, maybe he can turn around a similarly bad team 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dude has been a revelation here so far. May not start until next year full time, but I see him getting a lot of experience this year.

RTTRUTH Posted August 25, 2022 Share Posted August 25, 2022 Who is your other starter at Safety aside from Richie Grant; is it Hawkins? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah looking like Hawkins + Grant right now. But that's kinda to be expected. I wouldn't get too excited about either one of them personally. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DM316 Posted August 26, 2022 Author Share Posted August 26, 2022 I'm liking the competition at multiple spots. I have my eye on the edge rotation Carter, looking like Ade is gonna beat out Ebiketie but him and Malone rotating in .... I like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want AK47 to beat AO because if he can't then we've missed on another pass rusher. we need the help, desperately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just saying more from an upside standpoint, we have some talent at that spot for once. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How I expect the EDGES to look: EDGE1: Carter 60% of the time/Ogundeji 20%/Malone 20% EDGE2: AK47 50%/Ogundeji 30%/Q.Bell 20% Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After the preseason I'm a little more optimistic on this rookie class than I was going in with the first 6 picks showing flashes. Back to Ridder, at the very least he's done enough to give us the best version of Mariota we're going to get. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think long-term, he's gonna basically be the same guy Ryan was as a passer with the ability to add an additional 500-600 yards on the ground as well.

iloxygenil Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 So, who’s the big surprise cut? Any of these crowd favorites actually going to earn a spot for once? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
