idk, he was an OLB in the Ravens' 3-4, but wasn't really much of a pass rusher. apparently a good run stopper. ATL wants to make him the strong-side LB in their scheme. falcons fans are excited because "they're getting tougher" on defense.

he isn't especially fast and he doesn't pass rush, so Remmers should be fine. we'll see how it affects the run game. if Daryl Williams takes over RT i don't think it'll matter. he could take out a blocking TE or FB probably because he seems pretty powerful. He won't be able to cover Olsen.

i think in general he is a decent pick up to help them build against the run.

The question we have to ask ourselves now is does Ron have it in him to have an actual open competition at RT this TC or does his open affection for mike remmers even in spite of the fact that he's a a bad player net the guy the job and the opportunity to cost the team more games

Their d-line rotation is slowly developing into something special, they can for sure stop the run with it, and they look to be able to get interior pass rush. It's all a matter if Beasley consistently gets the outside pressure. Their LBs still suck though.

good signing. adds toughness and girth. 

 

dont be blind panthers fans. our rivals can make good signings too

Now they have someone to handle run-stopping duties for Vic Beasley. That's all this is

      Rasheed Walker for Kris Jenkins Jr.

      well i could go on & on but i will just highlight it by saying big difference trust me from the SEC & NFL.it's honestly like comparing apples & oranges especially when you are talking about a  LT. in the NFL you are going up against the most athletic freaks of nature the world has to offer . .the NFL also has much more exotic & complicated defensive schemes than what they are used to seeing at Georgis &  finally but most importantly you have to learn how to master complex bio mechanics where the body kick steps instantly as a reaction to these world class athletes rush without really making a conscious effort it's more of a learned muscle memory  & it can take thousands upon thousands of reps to master rproper technique for a LT in the NFL especially if you are still very raw like Monroe Freeling is    ...just saying

      All that being the case or maybe being the case, we do not know Wharton’s timetable n the first place. They are being coy about it. Or maybe not. They say week to week the board says he is terminal lol and must be replaced. Who knows? It may or may not warrant a fairly drastic solution.  Walker is a bargain and we are not well stocked at OL despite recent investments. Freeling has yet to have a single padded practice. Too much speculation driving this plan IMO.

      I would really love to know who’s actually making these moves because it’s weirdly vague who’s doing the hiring and firing.
