Dumb luck is worth at east a 1st and 3rd. Ha ha.

The Falcons took Tony "the Tiger" Torres at the 1.31 pick. He was the 4th DE drafted in the round, 2 picks after the Raiders grabbed "Crazy" Joe Davola. Cant remember if Davola was on my list, I would think so and was not happy to see him picked that close. DE was my #1 team need from my roster review. Torres busted (-6) in camp, and his vol was only 36, so that was a shock. He is both LDE2 & RDE2, he got 3 sacks & 24 hurries on 465 plays. Not great, but not too bad overall and his key atts are 84 speed, 61 strength, and 74 pass rush. Expect that he will be a starter in 3 or 4 seasons as either Costa or Lyles near retirement or will continue to back up both DE positions if the Falcons pick or acquire another high rank DE.

We picked up WR T.J. Houshmanzadeh with the 1-13 pick. He had a descent season with 26 Rec., 537 Yds, 52 Targets, only 2 Drops, 50% Rec, 20.7 Avg., 63 Yds. Longest and 9 TD's.

This, with a mediocre QB.
