If Spoon were really their man, the Falcons would have been much wiser trading down and getting an additional pick regardless the round because Weatherspoon would have lasted until day two, thus saving Arthur Blank millions. There is no question that Spoon is a physical specimen, but he’s hardly a forceful, impact player one wants in an "urgent" defense. "Solid" is a good adjective to describe him. "Exceptional" is not. I lived in Missouri last year and if anyone needs proof, simply watch the Mizzou film and notice how infrequently his name was called.

Have to agree
You may think he’s name was called a lot, but that was just people demanding “PRUUUUUUUUUNES!” over and over.

Because when trying to determine how valuable someone is
it all comes down to how often their name is called during a telecast.
Please.
Spare me.
That poster is a douche.

I live in Missouri.
I’m clearly qualified to evaluate Alex Barron’s footwork based on how many times his name is called on a broadcast, right?

His name is called quite often actually…
But that’s for all the false starts and holding penalties

Did you know that Sean Weatherspoon is an astronomy major?
It’s true. He’s fascinated with the size, number and diversity of Jupiter’s MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONS.

you wanna go get some dippin' dots?
no its a little too SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOON for those
Great Oden's Raven I love Mike "The Predator" Dixon!
unrelated, but thought somebody may be interested
somebody (apparently a mutated chicken fan) appears to have hacked the tigerextra link on the Trib site to take you to some KU associated company called ‘Ellington’. Go to http://www.tigerextra.com/, assuming it isn’t fixed already (told the trib webmaster).
Yeah ellington is not KU associated
It was created by developers at the Lawrence World Journal. But that doesn’t make it KU-afiliated.
Ellington is a Content Managment System, often used by newspapers. It’s also really awesome. It was co-created by a Mizzou J-school grad Adrian Holovaty. He also created EveryBlock, ChicagoCrimes (which is the predecessor to EveryBlock and also one of the first google map hacks, pre-API), etc.
Dude’s a stud, Ellington is awesome. I’ve obviously rambled on this for far too long.

yep, was just a default link deal, Trib emailed me
although they COULD mention the work with the Trib, too, instead of all the LJW and KUsports.com mentions on their site, would have saved me jumping to conspiracy theories…
Actually
the crowd was demanding that the flute section of the marching band get back into TUUUUUUUUUUUNNNNNEEEEE.

Perhaps they were all going to
put on their PANTALOOOOOOOOONS and board their SCHOOOOOOOOOOOOOONER to ship off in search of DOUBLOOOOOOOOOOOONS.

This thread is hilarious…
Let me try. The commenter must have a the brain power of a used tampoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooon!
Spoon was projected between 19 and 24 on most sites right
He was going first round, just a matter of who wanted him first. I think he’ll make ATL happy, this guy must be a MOROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOON!
3 other teams were courting him and would have had him if ATL didn’t pick him up.
I hereby donate
the two extra rhymes from my post to comotiger and B_W in benefit of their souls.
