Shockley still not playing: According to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Falcons QB D.J. Shockley did not participate in any of the team drills as he battles back from knee surgery that landed him on injured reserve after he tore his ACL last preseason. "He will get an opportunity to compete," coach Mike Smith said. "He brings a very different dynamic from the other quarterbacks that we have, in terms of he can run the ball and do some things with his feet. That's a interesting dynamic to have." (Updated 05/13/2008).
Injury Report
Knee - Probable for the start of 2008 training camp (Updated - 4/14/08)
Fantasy Analysis
Shockley will struggle to find playing time if he makes the team in 2008. Don't plan on drafting him in any leagues unless he is guaranteed playing time, but that's not likely to happen with Matt Ryan and Chris Redman on the roster. (Updated 05/13/2008).

Matt Ryan signed a $72 million, six-year contract with the Atlanta Falcons on Tuesday, ending concerns that prolonged negotiations could threaten his chance to become the starting quarterback as a rookie.
Matt Ryan will have his first chance to prove he can be more than just another clipboard-toting rookie observer when the new Atlanta Falcons quarterback participates in a three-day minicamp beginning Saturday.
