Ok, well here we go again.  Like the pre-Gibbs years, we barely have enough draft picks to satisfy more than one position.  We have 4 total picks, 4!!  If i'm not mistaken there are 7 rounds, and everybody gets 2 in the 7th round.  We have 4, thanks in large part to our "Director" Vinny Cerrato.  We threw a 2nd round pick this year and a 6th rounder next year to miami for Jason Taylor.  Wow, another brilliant move by the freakin skins.  What did he play like 3 games?   Had a career low in sacks, forced fumbles, etc.  Now he has been released because he didn't feel like practicing.  " I'm 100 percent positive he'll play longer than one year"-Vinny Cerrato.  Genius, thanks Vin Dieseldorf.  A 2nd round pick is very valuable, especially a high 2nd rounder.  Lets see who a couple of players were as 2nd rounders.

Plus, it is the one true event that merges the collegiate and professional levels–thus, unifying two enormous pools of fans. So, this is all to say that I fully understand the inherent appeal of the system. The yearly NFL Combine, however, I believe to be an entirely different animal.

Going into training camp, there are always a lot of question marks for a team in a rebuilding phase.  The 2008 Atlanta Falcons are no exception.  Will Matt Ryan start week 1?  Is Sam Baker an elite (or even starting) left tackle at the NFL level?  Looking beyond these common questions, however, lies another set of questions, the resolution to which will go as far as any other in determining the Falcons success in 2008 and beyond.  These questions revolve around the guys you haven’t heard much about.  That you haven’t heard about them is the scary part.
