The Falcons are signing ANOTHER former Bear...
Jordan Schultz reported that the Atlanta Falcons are signing DE Eddie Goldman to a one-year deal.
Goldman was drafted 39th overall by the Chicago Bears in the 2015 NFL Draft. He played from 2015 to 2021 with the team. He had a few very good seasons, but he was not the same player in 2021...
He was particularly good in 2018 and 2019. In fact, during that time, Goldman totalled 69 tackles and four sacks. He wasn't a superstar but he provided a solid presence up front for the Bears during that time.
This is crazy. The Falcons continue to sign former Bears players. It seems like Ryan Pace is trying to build the Atlanta Bears...
Let me remind you that Pace was hired as the Senior personnel executive for the Falcons a few months ago.
First of all, here is a list of players that went from the Bears to the Falcons. Keep in mind that all of those players played under Ryan Pace in Chicago.
Germain Ifedi
Damiere Byrd
Willie Beavers
Rashaad Coward
Mike Davis
Cordarrelle Patterson
Teez Tabor
James Vaughters
Elijah Wilkinson
Damien Williams
The last two Bears GMs are both working for the falcons right now:
Ryan Pace (Senior personnel executive)
Phil Emery( (Scout)
Dave Ragone( (He was the Bears' Passing game coordinator in 2020) (He is now the offensive coordinator for the Falcons)
Charles London( (He was the Bears' Running backs coach from 2018 to 2020) (He is now the Falcons' Quarterbacks coach)
Michael Pitre( (He was the Bears running back coach last season and he is now the Falcons' RB coach)
Ted Monachino( (He was the Bears' Senior defensive assistant & outside linebackers coach in 2019 and he is now the Falcons outside linebackers coach)
Jon Hoke( (He was the Bears' Defensive backs coach from 2009 to 2014 and he is now the Falcons' secondary coach)
When you look at the actual number of persons that switched from one organization to another, it's actually mind-boggling! I guarantee that there are no other teams with as many persons linked...
