An early look at the top 100 veteran free agents of 2020
teams like ours get burned going after a big name free agent who "looks" like a sure thing. I like Hooper, but I wouldn’t spend big on him because:
1.) Matt Ryan was his QB, like him or not, he is an accurate veteran QB which we do not have.
2.)Julio Jones and Calvin Ridley draw an insane amount of coverage, my entire defense shades to wherever Jones is and Ridley can take it to the house on any play…Hooper is an afterthought.
3.)Devontee Freeman had 59 receptions out of the backfield last season which draws either LB or Safety coverage.
My point is that given the scheme and offensive fire power on the Falcons, Sprinkle might look good in that offense. I would not spend big.
