Lofa Tatupu To Sign With Falcons

Good sign by the Falcons. If he is healthy, he will be a great playmaker.

ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports that the Falcons have reached a contract agreement with free agent linebacker Lofa Tatupu.

Tatupu sat out all of last season while recovering from double knee surgeries. Atlanta worked him out Friday morning and struck the deal Saturday afternoon.

YOU KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS! THEY'RE LETTING LOFTON WALK! Wow, that's a shocker, Lofton knows that team very well and is still very young, younger than Tatupu. Not a good move by the Falcons.

Tatupu is probably still there to provide depth and knowledge.

With a team he has no idea about...It's going to be hard to afford Tatupu and Lofton on the same roster plus you have to sign Ryan soon along with a number of players. It's a terrible signing if they keep Lofton.

I think it is a good signing. Everyone just wants to chastise any aging vet assuming they have no value and gas left in the tank. The Pats made it work with so many vets for the longest time, yep they only won 3 SBs with them. Pass coverage is probably the reason Tatupu is out there. I am just glad the Saints did not get him.
