Falcons Extreme Makeover

[Redskin Warrior]

I did see anyone else post this yet. They released Leftwich, Crumpler & five others. I think Crumpler & Cooley would kill'em in the west coast offense.

Falcons release Crumpler, Leftwich, five others

Cooley & Crumpler duo sounds very tempting but I don't think we could afford Crumpler tho..

i i think that that we should sign him for the vet min. i'm such a smart gm, i get grate players on the cheap.

I'm surprised Crumpler was the only good player on the offensive side of the ball, or at least the only one that I recall from the top of my head. I can't believe they did this all for a coordinator thats going to be there for a year or two. It's day like these where I'm glad DS is my owner.

There is no way in Hades that a former all pro tight end will sign for the Vet minimum.

He would be great here, but some other team that needs tight end may sign him, like the Bengals, Seahawks, or Carolina.

Lol, read the first part again I was kidding during the start of that post. Then I transitioned to how I feel about the situation. I personally despise the Veteran Minimum suggestion due to the fact that it is one of the most over-suggested solutions to bringing in players over the age of 30.

The veteran minimum usually goes through when you have a player that

1. Your not sure about
2. Usually over the age to 35
3. Feels your a contender and/or would like a chance to play for their childhood team.
4. Has strong ties to your coach and qualifies for point 1.

I am honestly pretty shocked they cut Crumpler? He is their strongest offensive weapon. I guess his contract wasn't the best. He'll get paid by someone.

Please no one suggest that we go get Crumpler. My brain will pop.

He is a coach killer. Last season he criticized his coaches playcall and then dropped 8 passes in the ensuing game. He is another Micheal Strahan except Strahan can catch a little better.

He'll be 32 when the season starts and only appeared in 5 games last year. No thanks.

Crumpler would probably sign somewhere else.

Leftwich could definately be our backup QB though.

Byron Leftwich is garbage

Absolutely! I would rather go after Joey Harrington. He is still young, but most importantly he has experience in the NFL and playing in the WCO.

I don't know if I'd go that far but I can see why Del Rio released him. He's got sloppy footwork, no molbility and has that long slow wind-up. He's got a big arm and that's it.
