Falcons OLs Clabo, Dahl and Blalock UFAs?

"While looking at Atlanta’s free agency priorities on Monday, we wondered if the team would consider using the franchise tag on right tackle Tyson Clabo.

The answer came back quickly.

Jason La Canfora of NFL Network reported Tuesday that the Falcons don’t plan to use the franchise tag on any of their prospective free agents. Clabo, guard Harvey Dahl, and guard Justin Blalock could all hit free agency."

Reading last week about those linemen,

I don’t recall why, or source but I had the impression folks feel they’re close to deals with their guys. Still could lose one, but I’d be surprised if 2 or 3 go elsewhere. They were among the lowest in payroll last year, should have money, and that’s the core of their entire team’s abilities right there. Surely the players feel they’re on the brink of a special run, why would they want to move away from that?

One of them will probably get the transition tag.

And Blalock and Dahl looks intresting

I figure it might be hard to keep all three with new deals.

If they truly are not using the Franchise Tag, as reported, I think it’s likely that two of the three become available. I’m sure JS/PC are surveying the scene…Fix YO LINE!

Hasseldone.
