    Feeling good about the Bucs coming out the South next season or at least getting a wildcard. I said the same before last season and was one bad fourth quarter against Dallas from being right.

    Needs

    Offensive line help, especially at tackle.

    Legit #2 receiver to take some attention off Mike.

    Safety. Chris Conte a FA and shouldn't be resigned

    Corner. Need somebody to pair with Vernon for the future.

    I wish we could get out of Doug's contract. I'd like a cheaper, younger option with some more explosiveness.

    Jameis gotta continue to develop. Cut down on the picks and become more consistent and accurate.

    We need a dam tight end, a RB because lacy is fat, a replacement for peppers and someone to replace shields since he gone now

    Kind of want DT Jon Allen the most but I'm buying more on Dalvin Cook with each mock draft. I'd welcome us trading back into the 1st round and getting Peppers if the situation calls for it. Grab that Guard from Cincy and a FB and we should be good. Blake absolutely needs to be better

    Pretty sure the Texans will draft a qb in the first 2 rounds of the draft. I really want them to cut osweiler

    The Pats might be willing to make Hightower the highest paid ilb but they probably won't be willing to give him olb money if another team decides to break the bank for him, that would be a huge backward step and a hard one to recover from

    I want the Eagles to throw some bread at Josh Gordon. ? aint got ? to lose. I doubt we get Alshon Jeffery, and I don't think Corey Davis or Mike Williams will be around at our pick. I think they should hit the ? Josh wit a 2 year 15-20 mill deal. Half of it guaranteed, and the second year a team option.

    Nah real question is can they stay healthy. Armstead was out more than in. Where will Peat be? At guard or Tackle taking Strief spot.

    Will any of the injured defensive players be an upgrade at CB, OLB, and DE?

    I am actually optimistic about next year because alike the past years the defense was just horrible with starters. Now they are bad with some great pieces that were injured. They have high enough draft picks to add on with a dab of cap space.

    Get two or three mid level free agents at LB and CB. Resign Hightower, Kuhn, Tapp and Fairley. Draft a DE, OL, CB, LB, and a return guy. Hopefully a CB that can return kicks. And they are back in contention.

    The offense outside of OG is set for years. Draft a guard that can step in at tackle if needed.

    garropollo is not worth a high first round pick. Supposedly we are the front runners. But if they give up that 3rd overall pick for him I'll be ? .

    Congrats to Marquand Manuel.


    Falcons promote Marquand Manuel to defensive coordinator


    Marquand Manuel has been promoted to the coordinator job after serving as secondary coach/senior defensive assistant last season, ESPN reports.

    Manuel played eight NFL seasons at strong safety from 2002 to 2009 after entering the NFL as a sixth-round draft pick of the Cincinnati Bengals. He also played for the Green Bay Packers, Carolina Panthers, Denver Broncos, Detroit Lions and Seahawks.

    Manuel's hands-on coaching style was key in the improvement of the Falcons' defense toward the end of the 2016 season and leading into the Super Bowl
