CB Brent Grimes Expected To Leave Falcons In Free Agency

According to a report from Pro Football Weekly, the Falcons are preparing to move on from CB Brent “Grimetime” Grimes, when he hits unrestricted free agency in March. According to the report, The Falcons feel that they may be priced out of the market for Grimes and with 17 other free agents upcoming this year, they may be better off spending the money elsewhere. Another potential issue that has emerged in this report, is that most Falcons were surprised when Grimes elected not to play against the Giants in the playoff game, as he seemed set to play throughout the week. Now, I’m not sure how true this report actually is, but i think it would be a terrible mistake to let Brent Grimes go. I realize that the Falcons are looking to switch to a more aggressive scheme, where more pressure is placed on the corners to cover in man coverage and on paper you could say his smaller size could be a potential issue.
