Atogwe had 3 interceptions and 3 forced fumbles in 2010. Since becoming a full-time starter in 2006, Atogwe has 43 combined forced fumbles and interceptions _ the most in the NFL over that time.

He's 29 years old, defensive captain for the Rams in 2010 and one of their best players if not THE best player for them on defense. The only reason he's being released is that he's due an $8 million roster bonus that they don't want to pay.

Looks to me like a massive upgrade from Godfrey, and it would allow us to push CG to backup, strengthening our depth.

Great blitzer and a huge gambler everywhere else. The epitome of high risk/reward type of player.

Not sure he is really what we need right now...

Couldn't u say the same about Godfrey? Aggressive but usually out of position? At least otogwe has been in this league for a while and has the same attitude. Ya godfrey had a lot of ints but the guy is the epitome of inconsistent. Problem is the price otogwe might command.

    • I know I’m grasping at straws but I believe this is our ‘get right week’.   Fug them dirty birds, panthers eat this weekend. Lesgo. 
    • I’m guessing Canales will want to try and establish the run early. Atlanta knows that if they stop our run game, Bryce and these WRs aren’t going to win the game on their own so they’ll be keying on the run and likely have the personnel and scheme to be successful. The run game won’t work early. Atlanta will get out to a 10-0 or 10-3 lead.  Canales will then go back to the pass game with Bryce dropping back 3/4 of all plays. In that scenario we lose the turnover battle. -2 is my guess.  Past is prologue with this team.  Atlanta will get their run game going and can just as easily beat us through the air if not. Sorry, but Carolina is not competent enough to beat a good Falcons team.  We trail throughout the entire game.   Atlanta    10   7   7   3   27 Carolina   3   6   7   3   19  
    • Yeah, I don't think it would. Might want to review the tape on the past two preseasons with him. The game I saw there was a massive gulf between him and Kyle Allen. Hence why he got cut.
