With the huge trade today, it brings us to another topic. I don't think both guys can stay because both these guys see themselves better than fifth corners. I would take Franks without much doubt over Owens in terms of keeping. Franks showed some promise at the end and has punt return value. He could replace Eric Weems which would be huge. Owens is decent but I don't think he'll ever excel because he's always a step late or not showing enough aggression. Who would you rather keep?

Franks, Owens never developed like we hoped imo.

I think both should stay unless the Falcons draft a Cb in the 2nd or 3rd round.

Given the ages of our top 3 corners, coupled with the fact that Samuels is not the most durable player, and who knows how the Grimes situation plays out, you want to be 5-deep at corner. Owens has proven himself to be solid on the outside. Imagine the scenario where one of the "Big 3" gets hurt, specifically which ever one is the nickel/slot corner. Then Franks steps in the slot role, but he blows. At least with Owens you have another option to turn to. You don't want to turn to that option, but it's at least a known commodity.

I like OWENS!! He's gonna put it all together!!

Watching Owens run down a couple guys last year really impacted my feelings about him. Who was the fifth CB last year, Pudge?

Darrin F-in Walls.
