The Falcons are moving Vic Beasley to LB (he's the guy that made Remmers his bitch)

[bleedsgreenandgold]

A top 10 pick dominated an undrafted free agent? Extra extra!!! Read all about it!!!

Falcon fan here.... And honestly this is no news. People who compared him to Miller trip me out. 

 

So now if he repeats with 4 sacks. People are going to think of him as a big bust.

I think it was Beasley himself who was doing some of that comparing if I recall correctly!

I never seen that. But I do recall it being here on the huddle

[mashburnfalcon]

And of course the homers on the falcons board...... If you talk on there of a player who makes it onto the top 53, they are all amazing. 

 

And it trips me out how they go for the udfa. Everyone will be a gem. And if they don't they turn on them real quick. And anyone cut sucks. And if they have a losing season, just everyone sucks but they'll come back with a ring next year. 

 

...... Sorry but I cannot stand homers. It's a pointless conversation.

"A lot of teams saw me with my hand in the ground, comparing me to guys like Cameron Wake," Beasley told the Atlanta Falcons' official website. "But I like to compare myself to Von Miller. He's able to drop in coverage, and we have the same body size, so I try to compare myself after him."

And... lest you think that was merely draft blather and that now he's a bit more humble, just yesterday there was this:

"Like, I watch Von Miller all the time," Beasley said. "We share a lot of similarities. I don't necessarily try to be exactly like him, because I am my own person. But we do share a lot of similarities, and I try to mirror some of myself after him."

But heck, Miller is a great player, and so if that's who Beasley wants to imitate, good for him.  But he is the one making the comparisons to Miller.... frequently.

Thanks, now I get where this crazy comparison came from and why people were saying it. 

 

I see Vic having one move with the arm like Miller does. But nothing that stands out to me as "omg he is going to be a beast".

 

And I'll say it, 4 sacks. Good, but not omg.

At least I can ignore it here. Over at the falcons if I say what I just did about Vic, I would get slapped and marked as a troll.

And I believe that led team. 4 sacks from a rookie led...the...team. Tampa is the only competition in this Division. We may drop one to TB and sweep everyone else this year.

The "experts" on NFLN actually picked us to lose BOTH games to the Falcons and sweep everyone else.
