F.S. Will Demps seen in Atlanta?

Well, first I heard of it. I would be surprised if it happened I guess.

The Falcons added Erik Coleman to go with SS Lawyer Milloy. Coleman was benched last year by the Jets, so maybe the Falcons aren't too impressed either, but I have no clue.

If you want to pair this rumor up with the other thread speculating we might be in the market for a trade to acquire a RB, then the Falcons have some interesting options.

They just signed Michael Turner in the offseason, and he isn't going anywhere. Backing him up are Jerious Norwood, Jason Snelling, and Thomas Brown. I love me some Norwood, but I would be surprised to see him traded... though crazier things have happened. He has some nice speed and hands.

Snelling, a 7th rounder in 2007, to me hasn't been anything special. BUT and this is a big but... he comes from Virginia, a region where our scouts LOVE to find players (same goes for Norwood and Brown, too, btw).

Brown is a rookie 6th round pick probably fighting hard for a roster spot from Snelling. He's bit undersized (5'9") and I seem to remember him having injury problems, but he was fun to watch in college (Georgia).

Btw, John Lynch signed with the Pats today, so that wouldn't be a reason to move Demps. I guess I'm having a hard time buying into this rumor unless the Falcons are the team that approached the Texans instead of vice versa, assuming there is even a crumb of truth to this at all.
