Depth Chart Wishlist

[Chuck Norris]

First and foremost, we're 4-1, and winning games the Falcons of previous years wouldn't. I'm just posting this for some discussion, nothing against anybody on the team. That being said, post whatever changes you would like to see.

LT: Will Svitek should be starting for Sam Baker

I've tried to make excuses for Baker time and time again, but it's getting ridiculous at this point. He is by far our weakest link on the line, and in the most crucial position, the quarterbacks blindside. I say move Svitek in and see what can be done. The less you hear an O-Linemen's name the better by the way, how many times have you heard Clabo called this year?

DT: Corey Peters should be starting for Peria Jerry

Maybe it's injury, maybe it's not, but Jerry.. just hasn't been a presence this season. I know he was a first round pick, but you play to win the game, and Peters is outplaying Jerry at this point. (We're always rotating linemen in and out, so this isn't a MAJOR change)

OLB: Stephen Nicholas should be starting for Mike Peterson

I love Peterson, but I just feel Nicholas brings more speed and explosiveness to the field. I think on passing downs especially, Nicholas should see more time than he currently does.

KR/PR: ??? should be starting for Eric Weems

Weems is a good returner. I can't remember the last turnover he had, and after the worst football player I have ever seen, Adam Jennings, it's a nice thing to have. However, Weems is good for 10 yards, never anything more. Now that Jenkins is back, I think we should give HD some opportunity's on returns. If it doesn't work out, simply go back to Weems, who is a good option.

Weems Agreed... i always felt that weems wasnt big play material and should maybe be replaced by someone with that explosiveness

Would love to try Baker at RT. I just believe he would be solid there. In the long term I think we should draft at that position, but ofcourse we'll know more about that later in the season.
I still think that were not getting enough pressure on the QB, once again we'll know more later in the season.
To me, this last game proves that we need another breakaway reciever and get HD back to playing the slot where he belongs. I don't know if Jenkins is the answer, but right now we need him in there. If he's not the guy, then we should consider drafting someone at that position.
