"Last week in the opener of this cyber mini-series, I looked at the possibility of the Falcons parting ways with Michael Turner, who despite finishing third in the NFL in rushing this season was showing signs of wear and might not be worth the $5 million in salary he is due next season. It stirred a lot of debate and, honestly, I was surprised by how many folks wanted him traded or cut.

Today, I'm focusing on five mistakes (or generally perceived ones). Falcons general manager Thomas Dimitroff hasn't made a lot of them, but there are five high-profile ones (actually, four by Dimitroff and one by then-general manager Rich McKay). Dimitroff didn't ask for my advice, but hey, I'm not charging or anything. This time, I'll have a series of polls so you can weigh in with your votes on each player (I neglected to put up a poll on the Turner blog)."
