The Facts: On film, Redman looked good as the Falcons starting QB over the final four games last season. New HC Mike Smith, and his overhauled coaching staff, will see Redman in person, beginning Monday at a three-day mini-camp. What they want to know is if Redman is good enough to be the starter again in the fall.
Diehards Line:How Redman -- and backup Joey Harrington -- perform could determine whether Atlanta uses the No. 3 overall pick on a quarterback, like Boston College's Matt Ryan. Instead, they could address their offensive (Jake Long) or defensive (Glenn Dorsey) lines. The workouts won't be the sole criteria for player evaluation, especially for linemen who can't exhibit their physicality. However, they will matter. "This is very big for us to see them this first time," Smith said.
