Signing Redman is just another sign of Vick possibly returning. Mr.Blank is a very smart man.

It seems to me the more out of wedlock kids you have, the better players you are. With this standard in mind, keep any of the 3 QBıs if one has wedlock kids, and draft MaFadden. Which college QBıs have wedlock kids? get them as the birds can. Just look at Brady, 2 kids popout of his seeds in one month, look at the result-4 rings already!

Signing Redman was a good move. He proved last year that he can play that position given some protection. The Falcons need to get back to running the ball and playing sound defense. Look for Smith to bring in his type of defensive players. You are going to see a more aggressive attack the football kind of defense in the future. I believe the Falcons are finally heading in the right direction. Let's see how they draft.

We need to step up and get some people! We are supposed to have all this cap room now? Redman? Big Deal!! We need some good quality free agents to come in and turn this thing around. You guys better have some good folks. They are getting swallowed up every minute you wait!! On another note, we have some great picks coming up in the draft. Would you all please do your homework and get some quality guys in here. Please!!!!!!!

Chris played pretty well when he was in there. His rating of 90 was between Tom Brady (87.9) and Phillip Rivers (92). Not bad. With an improved line and running game he should do well.

We should all be pleased to have Redman stay. He showed good leadership qualities under very difficult circumstances last season. If the Bird's can provide him with a little protection, he could be a steal.I hope the falcons land Turner,but if it does'nt work out they should consider bringing back T.J. We have'nt had a decent power back since he left. I would also like to see the falcons sign Donte Stallworth.I know he looks a bit like the blue cross kid at this point in his career, but if he was to ever figure out a way to stay healthy he could still achieve the super star status the pundits predicted when he first came into the league.
