I'm nervous about this game. The Falcons are built to play on turf. In Chicago, they had a difficult time utilizing their speed. It'll be different on their own turf.

I know it's early but my mind is on a couple of items.

First, who/how do you cover WR Julio Jones?

I take CB2 (or whomever is my best press coverage and physical CB) and lock him on Julio with my fastest Safety covering the top.

I take CB1 and lock him onto the biggest threat after Julio Jones.

I'm no more nervous about this game then I am about EVERY Packer game. On any given day, one team can beat another.
We got KILLED in the title game last year. But our team (defense especially) has changed a lot since then.
Had our D folded at the end of the Seattle game, like it seemed to do game after game last year, I'd be a lot more worried. But they held strong and didn't let Seattle get back into the game.

But I've suggested your same exact idea many times in the past.

Gunter was my 4th guess, after Pipkins, McCray and Patrick...

Well this is surprising DT Ricky Jean-Francois is released (my guess for WR Allison).

That leaves Dial, Hawkins, Pipkins

Quinton Dial DT Inactive I doubt it will be Dial. They just signed him and will want to give him 2-3 weeks minimum to see what they have. While it as been done before, it's pretty rare that you sign a player one week and release him the next. Even Knile Davis Stayed two weeks and had a conditional draft pick tied to him.
Josh Hawkins CB Inactive More than likely ranks higher than Pipkins.
Lenzy Pipkins CB Inactive Which leaves Pipkins as the most likely to be released.

Of course this is not a perfect way to decide. ... I can't say if they contributed on ST or not. I will stick with Pipkins.

wpr (12-Mar) : The Eagles are signing former Packers running back AJ Dillon, a league source confirms.

Zero2Cool (12-Mar) : Might be waiting for the right place, or right cash, or both

dhazer (12-Mar) : I can't believe Chubb is still a free agent why wouldnt someone take a chance on him he is a stud with stuff to prove

Zero2Cool (12-Mar) : I wanna find it too

Zero2Cool (12-Mar) : if they find it, i wanna know how !!

Zero2Cool (12-Mar) : Pelissero: Cooper Kupp to be released by the Rams.

dfosterf (12-Mar) : OTC has increased Packers cap room to over 32 mil

Martha Careful (12-Mar) : RIP Junior Bridgeman. An excellent businessman and NBA er

Zero2Cool (12-Mar) : It's better to have $17m to use on players who will be on the field. That's why trade/release is talked

Zero2Cool (12-Mar) : post june is $7m cap hit with $17m saving

Zero2Cool (12-Mar) : oops meant $10m cap hit

Zero2Cool (12-Mar) : And pre june is $10m savings

Zero2Cool (12-Mar) : Can't make him play.

dhazer (12-Mar) : I am curious why the big need to release Jaire, we have 29 million cap space we arent spending and would only gain $6 million/ make him play

Zero2Cool (12-Mar) : Joey Bosa signed with Bills?

dfosterf (12-Mar) : What they are offering is a left over case of Leinies from the Chippewa Falls plant

Zero2Cool (12-Mar) : 27, 59, 91, 129 gets you Jaire and our 3rd

Zero2Cool (12-Mar) : they give us those five, or even first four, they can have Jaire.

Zero2Cool (12-Mar) : 27, 59, 91, 129 and 136 are only ones worth having of theirs.

dfosterf (12-Mar) : What they don't have is cap space, at least presently at 5.6 mil

dfosterf (12-Mar) : Poor bastards only have 11

Zero2Cool (12-Mar) : Ravens ain't got crap for picks.

Zero2Cool (12-Mar) : Aaron Rodgers is choosing between Steelers and Giants. The Vikings are officially out on him, per RapSheet

dfosterf (12-Mar) : Current cap space 29.6 million.

dfosterf (12-Mar) : Hobbs 2025 cap hit just under 6 million. Banks 2025 cap hit just over 9 million

Mucky Tundra (12-Mar) : beast, this is news to me! Tell me more about these, "draft picks." They seem mighty mysterious! 😉

beast (12-Mar) : Yes, the Ravens have draft picks

dfosterf (12-Mar) : Good luck to him.

Zero2Cool (12-Mar) : Eric Stokes signs with Raiders

Martha Careful (11-Mar) : Tyler Linderbaum C

Mucky Tundra (11-Mar) : Cap space?

Zero2Cool (11-Mar) : Do Ravens have anything we'd even entertain to have?

Mucky Tundra (11-Mar) : I've seen trade ideas of Jaire going to the Ravens all offseason

beast (11-Mar) : A probably false rumor is suggesting CB Jaire Alexander is being traded to the Ravens, again probably false

beast (11-Mar) : Commanders might have a dominant offense the next 3 years at least

Zero2Cool (11-Mar) : San Francisco 49ers announced they have released DL Leonard Floyd.

Mucky Tundra (11-Mar) : Er getting traded twice like that

Mucky Tundra (11-Mar) : Huh, LT Laremy Tunsil traded from Houston to Washington. Never heard of a top OT getting traded in his career like that
