ArmyBengal Posted August 23, 2006 Report Posted August 23, 2006 Lelie is not going to help Atlanta in my mind and I wonder just how much the injury to Portis made this more possible...WHODEY !!! Quote
aaronburr Posted August 23, 2006 Report Posted August 23, 2006 So much for KWash getting traded to Atlanta Quote
Stripes Posted August 23, 2006 Report Posted August 23, 2006 I honestly think K-wash would have produced better for the Falcons than Lelie ever will. Classic Snyder to go steal away a high value back right after having his starter hurt. The Broncos get the best of this deal easily as I see it. The Broncos get what they wanted by dumping Lelie for a first day pick, the Skins get some RB depth (but the third round pick isn't worth it... stupid move), and the Falcons...... ehhh..... A trade-bust-waiting-to-happen at WR and a loss to the only thing that made their offense worth anything... the running game. Quote
Kazkal Posted August 23, 2006 Report Posted August 23, 2006 Yay he won't be a steeler thankyou redskins for wasting yer draft picks once again Quote
skyline Posted August 23, 2006 Report Posted August 23, 2006 I guess this makes Dunn a better fantasy back this year, eh? Quote
Ickey44 Posted August 23, 2006 Report Posted August 23, 2006 I guess this makes Dunn a better fantasy back this year, eh?I guess. I don't understand this move from Atlanta's point of view at all. Their offense IS their running game. They just shot themselves in the foot. They know Vick can't throw. And now Lelie's gonna hafta come in and learn the playbook, and that's gonna take time. Stupid move by the Falcons, IMO. Quote
BlainThePain Posted August 23, 2006 Report Posted August 23, 2006 The only way Atlanta will ever have a passing game under Vick is if they can find a WR that can take over a game no matter who is throwing it to him like an Owens, Moss, or CJ type of receiver. Lelie certainly isn't that. He'll be about as good as Price was with the Falcons. Quote
