Atlanta Falcons Rookie Troy Andersen Ultimate Highlights 2022

[@Gwan-so..]

..troy stay healthy man!!.. and get mad game time, leave those smiles and stuff in the locker.

[@dylanfinley1335]

Him and Kaden are going to be fun to watch. Troy made progress throughout the year and Kaden blew up this past season. They fly to the ball and can blitz very well. Very sneaky LB duo in the making.

[@EliteLogistics]

Love watching him run ball carriers down. Just so fast.

[@disDoC53]

He only started playing LB full-time as a Jr in college, and in the FCS, so his development may look different than most. He’s already shown flashes. Once the game slows down and he adapts to his position the sky is the limit

[@falconsempire64]

I’ve been watching a lot of hard knocks and I always wondering how is he preparing for these games because he doesn’t act like a rookie at all. Besides the last game.

[@Flyer9550]

So glad I got to watch his final year as a Bobcat in person! Whole school knew that he was gonna go somewhere in the second round, glad he got to show some of his stuff on the field.

[@falconsempire64]

That’s pretty awesome to watch a player like that in real life instead of watching it on the TV screen

[@johnulmer6715]

Griz fan here, but he's the best football player to come out of our state, and I don't think it's even close. He's an awesome kid to boot. He's the only reason I watch the NFL nowadays. Just wished he was a Grizzly. LOL

[@jason5523-r5m]

Not a bad rookie year for not being the starter all season. I see some flashes of greatness in there. He's a beast that can lay down the law or take the ball. He seemed to get better as the season went on, can't wait for next year.

[@falconsempire64]

That 49er game was telling!

[@colinkobel2868]

I have watched Troy since his freshman year at Montana State and he continues to amaze me with his athleticism!

[@Pizzle0529]

He’s going to be really good for us, he flies around and has violent hands . Great pickup.

[@falconsempire64]

The scouting department did their job correctly this time I’m happy unlike previous draft we got.

[@13PanteraX]

Animal. Can't wait to see him put it all together! Will be unstoppable with a little help around him. Atlanta keep drafting defense high

[@falconsempire64]

To be honest I would rather the Falcons draft all defensive players or maybe I’m talking crazy talk🤷.

[@13PanteraX]

@@falconsempire64 not crazy. I've been saying this for years. I just know they won't. Im hoping at least 1st 3 picks on D. 🤞

[@falconsempire64]

@@13PanteraX Me too but they might go Wide receiver in the second round.

[@chadarmstrong3381]

Totally forgot this guy chased down Ray Ray McCloud haha. That's a huge fast dude 😅

[@falconsempire64]

Yeah, I was thinking to myself at the time, that might be a touchdown for them but good thing he tackled him down

[@atlfalcons4life479]

Off-season time so I decided to watch some Troy and he definitely flashed last year at points he has just got to figure everything out as far as an LB. Still has a ways to go but the flashes are very promising, excited to see year 2 with him in a bigger role alongside Kaden Ellis too.

[@DaTeXaSxSpyda83]

Damn I remember when I wanted my pats to draft he a helluva athlete..falcons y'all got one helluva good player

[@falconsempire64]

Appreciate the respect man! It’s kind of funny because I wanted the Falcons to get him, but I had a feeling that the patriots, the Browns or the Cardinals would try to get him in the 3rd to 5th round fish.

[@lowc5114]

He will be even better next year with the playing time that he put in this year needs to get stronger he will be a star and dog

[@falconsempire64]

I want to know will he be a heavy Blitzer or a heavy spy linebacker can’t wait to find out.

[@csyv9740]

Get after em Troy!

[@deepwaterwalk]

This monster will end up being an All Pro LB. Just watch.

[@Lake6373]

1:02 this right here is why we drafted this guy, he’s a freak athlete. Gets off his block, immediately cuts off Herbert and blocks the pass. Its crazy how fast he is

[@austincochran8480]

This kid was a beast in college

[@johnulmer6715]

Funny thing is, if the Falcons run into a QB deal like San Francisco did last year he can play that too. Was the all conference QB his sophomore year. All conference RB his freshman year. The kid can play ball.

[@brendanwalsh2755]

I am a Bears fan. Therefore I am a linebacker fan. Lol. This kid has got the size the athleticism and that elite speed. Yes he’s raw because he barely started playing the position. I would say by his third year in the pros he’s gonna have it all put together, and he will start stacking all pros.. He has that much potential….. my only criticism, and let’s just say surprise is how poor he is in coverage. Coming from playing the quarterback position, I would have expected him to be much more instinctual in coverage. I have no doubt he will learn it in time, but I thought he would be better at that out of the gate.

[@FTW54]

Him and kaden elliss are gonna be a fun pair to watch this season

[@CaptCommandoXII]

With his raw speed & athleticism, one he able to diagnose plays quicker & go off instinct he's gonna be a monster.

[@jewellbell]

Facts

[@lisarakich3927]

He already is The Terminater!

[@jrshelton3398]

Yep, he’s only played the position for what, 2 years.

[@jadeci.2610]

Damn he can run 😲 that 49ers return was gone till he turned the jets on

[@falconsempire64]

I know right, I knew he had speed but I didn’t know he had that type of speed

[@chasesavoie]

He ran a laser time 4.4 and he has top end track speed! He’s a freak

[@falconsempire64]

@@chasesavoie I didn’t know that. that makes me even more super excited for him!

[@carson6707]

​@Falcons Empire I went to high-school with the kid. I was a senior when he was a freshman. The dude is a freak of nature in every aspect of life. Also one of the genuinely nice people that I have been around. I'm glad he got his shot and can represent Dillon MT with pride.

[@htxbryce]

He’s going to be a stud give him another year or 2

[@falconsempire64]

I wasn’t mad when we selected him in the first place because I remember when Deion Sanders said if you can ball you get the call😂

[@Kateholley13]

One of the best cats players in history

[@falconsempire64]

Well I hope so at the very end of his career!

[@BillyHennager]

Love watching Troy Anderson blow up the Stat Sheet n Highlight reel

[@TonyMadss]

Y’all j wait he used to play qb in college he know the game better than 99% of players

[@toddatkinson1307]

he is going to be the man

[@falconsempire64]

Hopefully starting

[@JR-500]

It’s scary when the fastest man on the field is a LB

[@falconsempire64]

I’m excited to see Ryan Nielsen is going to use him The possibility is endless with his speed.

[@skillz78]

He can’t cover for shit tho. Needs lots of work there

[@mazzi.ozborne]

He's a beast. Gotta get better in coverage. Once the game shows down to him his speed will show more

[@falconsempire64]

I agree I can tell his transition to linebacker still needs to be improved on his foot technique, Reading the quarterbacks body motion & The speed of the game. But not a bad start!

[@mazzi.ozborne]

[@Slim248-v5x]

@@mazzi.ozborneDoes Hawkins disappoints you more than Richie Grant??

[@mazzi.ozborne]

@@Slim248-v5x hell yeah, Richie does cause turnovers and delivers big hits. Hawkins isn't a game changer back there. If anything he's a decent backup but he's no 🌟. He's had long enough to prove hes not worthy in my eyes

[@falconsempire64]

Even though he’s not a superstar household name yet I think still having a good quality back up would definitely help this team if our starting safety goes down if we get one in free agency or in the draft.

His speed and size is apparent on film. Wish he packed a heavier punch with that combination but I know he's a project and still developing. Tayson Hill push his wig back a bit @2:18

[@falconsempire64]

I would love it if we can bring in another veteran or resign Evan‘s so he can learn under his wings a lot more.

[@boblafountaine9560]

He’s been dating my grand daughter for several years. From what I know so far, he’s such an easy going person and such a great athlete, he doesn’t want to hurt anyone. With h8s size and speed you are definitely correct as to whether he could bring more to the table.

[@samueldavis1524]

I think he improves over the off season and his next step development becomes obvious in 2023.

[@falconsempire64]

There’s no question about it he has the tools let’s just hope Arthur Smith and Terry can find a hell of a great defensive coordinator.

There’s no question that he has a quarterback sacks prowess. I like his covering range they’re solid but my main concern with his young Thundercat is his ability to tackle One on one collision properly hopefully we can coach them on that. I wouldn’t mind picking him up though!

Get an impactful NT and he's a pro bowler

[@Slimkidd730]

@@falconsempire64 We'll we're a 3-4 defense and Jarrett is already good. I like Tim Horne and his size so getting a NT would be enough for up the middle. I would take a 5 tech late in the draft though. But not two NTs.

[@falconsempire64]

@@Slimkidd730 So the Falcons are really a multiple Defense. They played in a 3-4 & a 4-3 last year and now since we got our new defensive coordinator he also stated that we’re going to play in multiple Defense. I don’t care who we get as long as we build that defense front line.

[@Slimkidd730]

@@falconsempire64 We play way more 3-4 than 4-3. Patriots and Ravens had 4-3 sometimes in their defense but there base was 3-4 and overall 3-4 based on the blitz packages and what not. Even with the new coordinator the personnel we have is for 3-4 based on Ekibeitie and MAlone being 3-4 OLBS. You can't draft 3-4 OLBs and then run a 4-3 defense. It takes away their worth. Overall we need a NT whether we were in a 3-4 or 4-3. If we get Siaki we'll be a top run defense and it'll keep the LBs clean. Troy Andersen is starting his career damn near same way Olakun did.

Nielsen needs to lock him up in a room with urlacher highlights.

[@jaylew651]

And folks said they wanted Dean

I’m pretty sure we can make a good argument that falcon fans wanted Dean just because he was a bulldog not because of the scheme fit.

[@jaylew651]

@@falconsempire64 exactly and don’t get me wrong Dean is good but smaller and I don’t think he will be able to shed blocks as well as Anderson in the long run. I believe Anderson kept us in some games this year and gave us a chance to win as a rookie lb with shared snaps. Dean is fighting for the backup position in Philly they really like the other lb more

I onl care about size like tht from the MLB esp since we dont have the most sotut d line. So we need someone who is big enough to take on linemen who often get in the second level .Gotta be able to shed them and make the pla still. Its why Deion Jones had issues w

[@MumRah]

this guy is terrible. highlights? lol! he's late to the play almost every time. hardly ever makes a solo tackle, gets beaten and ran over on the regular. his best plays are mistakes. Caleb Huntley made him wiff but since he was holding the ball like an egg he dropped it when Andersen's finger touched it. Then the blocked punt against the Rams only happened because they blew it and he was 100% unblocked. his best attribute is that he runs fast in a straight line but moves like he's made out of wood. half the time he looks completely lost on the field like it's his first time playing football.

[@bakarumble9265]

Stop with all the heat you’re speaking nonsense. you must not been paying attention to this highlight video bro, he clearly can tackle solo he does a solid job showing off his quarterback pressures when he’s on the field. With the limited amount of snaps he got of course, he wasn’t going to always have a 100% perfect record but for a rookie that came out of a small college He did a pretty good job. Remember highlights don’t tell the whole entire story go check out his other review about him where he goes into more greater detail. Turn that negativity into positivity.👍
