Mini Camp Chat with Yasinskas
I spent some time Friday chatting with experienced football writer and all-around “friend of the program” Pat Yasinskas. The ESPN.com NFC South Blogger tries to hit each team in the offseason and will attend two days of Falcons mini camp.

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 [...]

What to Watch at Mini Camp
In just more than two hours the Falcons take the field for the first real “practice” of 2010 — a mini camp workout in Flowery Branch to knock off some rust and start laying the foundation for the pre- and regular-season.

Birdseed: April 21, 2010
If you’ve been keeping up with my 2010 mock drafts you know there’s plenty of paths the Falcons may take through the selection process.
You also know a lot depends on the actions of teams with the first 18 picks.
So why do football fans and journalists make mock drafts in the first place? For some, it’s [...]
Birdseed: April 20, 2010
The NFL will unveil the 2010 regular-season schedule at 7 p.m. Tuesday, making a busy day of pre-draft preparations a little more interesting.
At the very least, the schedule release is a respite from the topsy turvy world of draft planning and speculation (I don’t know about anyone else, but by this time in the pre-draft season I grow [...]

Welcome to Pro Day Season
So how do NFL teams fill the time between the Scouting Combine and the NFL Draft?

Too early for concrete news on the NFL Draft but [...]
