Falcons drop little-used TE Beverly

FLOWERY BRANCH, Ga. (AP) - The Atlanta Falcons released tight end Eric Beverly, who played in 45 games for the team.

The 6-foot-3, 300-pound Beverly spent seven seasons with the Detroit Lions as an offensive lineman before signing with the Falcons in 2004. The Falcons then converted him to a blocking tight end. He had one reception for no gain for Atlanta last season.

Beverly made seven starts in three seasons with Atlanta.

The Falcons chose Martrez Milner, a tight end from Georgia, in the fourth round of the NFL draft last month as a possible backup for starter Alge Crumpler.

Whiz has said that he likes tight ends that possess a threat in the blocking and passing game. Lining his fat butt up would tell the D which side we were going to run to.

Athletic OT transformed into a blocking TE. Has developed into decent blocking TE with the Falcons. Offers nothing as a receiver.

Reminds me of Fred Wakefield. I say let Beverly date Fred.
