The NFL Draft is a week away, and everyone seems to have their thumb on the pulse of Flowery Branch. Most mock drafts have the Falcons taking a defender, with Dallas Turner being Atlanta’s more often than any other. However, I wouldn’t be so sure that Terry Fontenot takes the Alabama product. Jared Verse and
The Falcons find themselves in the midst of a league investigation for their role in allegedly tampering with Kirk Cousins before the allotted period to do so. As of Monday, there was no update from the NFL, according to the AJC. However, it seems pretty cut and dry. The Falcons clearly violated rules, and Cousins admitted
We are now a week away from the NFL Draft, and the consensus theme for the Falcons is an edge rusher, most commonly Dallas Turner in mock drafts. Atlanta has had struggles sacking opposing quarterbacks, an issue that’s persisted for over a decade. With Turner, Raheem Morris would get an athletic specimen that he could
The Falcons have spent money for the second offseason in a row. Last year, Terry Fontenot finally had the cap space to participate in free agency freely and brought aboard three defenders in Jessie Bates, Kaden Elliss, and David Onyemata. They were met with polarizing reactions, but the Falcons were rewarded with an All-Pro campaign
You thought we were done with the Bill Belichick saga? Think again Falcons fans. ESPN recently dropped a bombshell of a story detailing behind the scenes of Atlanta’s head coaching search with Belichick. First of all, I highly recommend that you go read the story in its entirety because it’s one hell of a piece of
The Falcons are less than two weeks away from making their third consecutive selection at the No. 8 overall pick, and Terry Fontenot seems primed to do something he’s never done before.

During the Falcons head coaching search, the selling points of Atlanta to candidates were clear. Terry Fontenot had accumulated many talents on the offensive side of the ball. Arthur Blank would be willing to write a check for any player or any asset necessary to win football games. The NFC South is arguably the worst
During the Falcons‘ search for a new head coach, many speculated that Bill Belichick was the front-runner, but it’s been revealed that he was never seriously considered a finalist. In a new bombshell story from ESPN, much has been revealed about the process that played out behind the scenes. It’s far too much for just
The Falcons believe they’re contenders with Kirk Cousins. Why else give a 36-year-old a deal worth $180 million? Arthur Blank is surely expecting some sort of return on his investment. A postseason berth seems like the bare minimum, but I would go further and guess that Atlanta’s owner would be disappointed with a one-and-done playoff
The Falcons came into the offseason with the need to fill the most important roles in the NFL. Yes, they had to hire a head coach and subsequent offensive coordinator, the latter of which could be argued to be more important, but Atlanta also had to find a quarterback along with filling several other premium
