Hey, I was on the Atlanta Falcon's website to check on someone.  And, low and behold, I see Ryan Neal's name in the transactions as being signed.  Good luck Ryan.  The Eagles suck anyway.

Nice in game action photo of Chase Allen:

New pix of MyCole Pruitt.  He really needs to get on the field tonight to have any chance to even make the practice squad.

I just watched the Houston Texan's game.  MyCole Pruitt played very little.  I saw him on second or third rotation EP and P.  Only one time each.  Also, I only saw him on two snaps from scrimmage.  He did have a nice reception and RAC on a crossing pattern.  I think he got about sixteen yards.  He's still listed as tied for third string.

MyCole Pruitt moved up on the depth chart today.  Now he's got the fourth TE spot all to himself.  There were times last year that the Texans carried four TE's.

I watched Ryan Neal's first game with the Falcons last night.  He got in with about 2:30 to play.  Made a tackle.  I did not see him on special teams.

Just watched Craig James and his last game for the Vikings.  They gave him a good look.  He was the opening game KR.  Got 22 yards. Nothing special.  He was the second rotation Nickel.  got in with about 3 minutes to play in the first half.  Played well.  Nothing spectacular.  Appeared to not miss any assignments.  They had him blitz twice.  Did get out of technique a couple of times.  But no big deal.  Was on PR a couple of times and was the gunner blocker 3 or 4 times.  My guess he is still fighting for a practice squad spot with the Vikings.

Just watched Ryan Neal with the Falcons against the Jags.  Got a good look.  He was on first rotation K.  No tackles. He was second rotation at Nickel.  Started the second half.  Appeared to not miss any assignments.  Made a good open field tackle when in zone.  Made several assists.  Was moved to safety for a handful of plays.  The Falcon's secondary are not good tacklers.  Was in the front wall of the third rotation KR.  Looked good.  Ryan is still going for a practice squad spot.  

Just finished watching MyCole Pruitt and the Texans play the Rams.  MyCole was on first rotation PR.  Also first rotation of KR.  Had a nice pancake block with a couple of minutes to go in the first quarter.  Second rotation KO.  And finally was on first rotation FG and XP.  Getting a good look as a special teamer.  Had a nice game on special teams.  Was the fifth TE to enter the game on offense.  Not good.  Got in with about 2:40 remaining in the third quarter.  Four targets for 7 yards each reception.   The final reception put the Texans in field goal range to win the game.  Field goal was missed.
