Meet A New Atlanta Falcon: CB Chris Owens
The Falcoholic —
... There's no doubt in my mind that Chris Owens is a physically gifted cornerback. Ironically, you may not see him leaping like that too often, at least if you listen to scouts. His draft position means he's got some believers in the front office, which never hurts. Owens has debuted thus far with a minimum of fanfare, so let's get him his dues. ...

... This leaves the team in excellent position coming into training camp. With all their picks signed, rookies can get to work immediately at trying to unseat veterans, and chances are very good that we'll see at least two or three of the new guys on the field Week 1. Jerry's virtually a lock given his pass-rushing ability, William "C4" Moore seems like a likely choice given his physical skill set and Chris Owens or ...

It's a very young defense ...
