Ken Sugiura, of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, reports with the signing of LB Ed Hartwell, the Atlanta Falcons could decide to release LB Chris Draft, who is scheduled to make $1.3 million and is projected as a backup in 2005.

Don't shoot the messenger. Just posting some LB news .. :cool:

so-we have roster full of backups-we need some starting quality LB\'s....

Now Draft I wouldn\'t mind taking a look at. I know what the hell Allen and Hodge can and CAN\'T do, bring in someone new. He was highly rated coming out of college.

WHOA!!! Never mind, thinking of the wrong guy. :nutz:

Sounds like he was the starter until Mr Ed came to town.

I think he\'s a decent player. I say why not. Stanford, I believe.....good head on his shoulders.

He was actually pretty popular here in Atl. There was a good story about him saving some dude on the side of the road.....just pulled over and helped some guy out. I heard him on the radio a couple of times....good character. Starting LB? I\'m not real sure, but he\'s no dummy and he doesn\'t have a rap sheet

your right..he\'s better than allen, a MLB and he seems to be a good guy...but he\'s a career journeyman it looks like...I\'d bring him in for a look...at worst he\'s better than everyone but watson and colby.
not gonna happen though--don\'t ya know the last four games showed that our linebackers are the second coming of the dome patrol.. :casstet:

Maybe if we have 5-6 #4 linebackers they can come together to form a super linebacker
