Mini Camp Highlights: Day 2
Cooler air welcomed the Falcons back to the field on Day Two of mini camp but the oppressive heat was exchanged for a stiff breeze that sent pre-practice punts spiraling and passes sailing.
That created some difficult situations for the offense, which did manage to even the score a bit with a spirited group of defenders.
Additional highlights of [...]

Looking to Help… Wherever Possible
After one of the Falcons mini camp practices rookie cornerback Dominique Franks could be found with seven-year veteran — and prized free-agent acquisition — Dunta Robinson.
Their conversation didn’t debate lunch options or Atlanta living arrangements.
It was all business. Specifically Franks breaking from his backpedal too quickly after the snap.
“He’s just giving me a couple of [...]

Birdseed: May 8, 2010
My pasty white legs and I made it through the first two-a-day of mini camp without much of a sun burn.
That’s surprising considering the surface-of-the-sun like heat that found its way to Flowery Branch almost three months early.
Not sure what to say to the 163 people who looked at the picture of my legs on Twitter.
With that [...]

Mini Camp Highlights: Day 1
Looking back at this first day of Falcons mini camp, I can’t help but wonder what training camp is going to look like.
Yes, it’s months away. Yes, the weather will be much warmer. Yes, this is an example of looking too far ahead when I’m constantly telling fans to live in the moment.
But if the Falcons can [...]

Mini Camp: All About Intensity
It felt more like July than early May in Flowery Branch Friday, giving Falcons players and staff a taste of what’s surely to come at Russell Falcons Training Camp — punishing heat.
But the team directed its focus in practice, creating white-hot flames of intensity that left everyone feeling upbeat and optimistic about the next round [...]

Secondary Grows Stronger
When Brian Williams was lost for the season with a knee injury in the Falcons Week 6 victory over the Bears Oct. 18, the floodgates of criticism opened on the team’s secondary.
Now without one of its starting cornerbacks, Falcons coaches needed to mix and match to find the right combination. In the process, Brent Grimes, [...]

Birdseed: April 19, 2010
Get ready Falcons fans. It’s NFL Draft week.
