Mel Kiper of ESPN had some strong opinions about the Falcons and Malik Willis earlier this week: Mel Kiper Jr. has Liberty QB Malik Willis as his QB2 in the 2022 NFL Draft. Says he believes in Willis talent much like he believed in the talent of Josh Allen and Justin Herbert when they entered
There may not be another position that gets a bigger overhaul this offseason in Atlanta than the wide receiver room. Calvin Ridley is in the thick of multiple trade rumors, and if Russell Gage and others are not re-signed, the only rostered wide receiver for the Falcons will be 2021 sixth-round pick Frank Darby. Darby, who
Former Falcons Head Coach Dan Quinn was expected to be a name at the top of a lot of NFL teams’ wishlists, but he appears to be a finalist for a few vacancies: The #Giants plan to interview #Bills OC Brian Daboll a second time for their head coaching job today, per source. Daboll is
I’ve already covered the quarterbacks, and while that position group is pretty straightforward, the Falcons do have an interesting situation in their backfield going into 2022. Mike Davis is a cut candidate, and Cordarrelle Patterson may have played his way into a big contract from the Falcons or somebody else. Regardless, let’s take a look at
The Athletic’s Dane Brugler released his latest two-round mock draft, and he has a couple of very interesting prospects going to the Falcons: Mock Draft 2.0 – A new name at No. 1 (read my reasoning)– Cowboys get OL help, Saints find their QB, Jets add WR1– Two rounds!https://t.co/IKejRdUDj9 — Dane Brugler (@dpbrugler) January 19,
Yahoo!’s Chris Haynes made some comments earlier on some potential roster shakeup for the Hawks, and some fans won’t be thrilled. https://twitter.com/goatedj0n/status/1483856675731906560?s=10 We’ve already seen Cam Reddish traded to the Knicks, and I wouldn’t be shocked if multiple moves were made before the trade deadline. Even after getting the large extension that he wanted, John

As it stands, the Falcons are very limited on funds. Atlanta experimented with AJ McCarron, Josh Rosen, Matt Barkley, and Feleipe Franks in 2021, and none of them looked like competent backups going forward. Reports have surfaced that the Falcons are committed to Matt Ryan for 2022, but Arthur Smith is on record saying no
Now free of International Signing penalties imposed in 2017, the Braves have picked up a few key prospects: The @Braves have agreed to a $2.5 million deal with 17-year-old Venezuelan shortstop Diego Benitez, No. 10 on the Top 50 International Prospects list.

The Falcons are at a crossroads, and this isn’t a strong draft class for quarterbacks. I don’t want to see Matt Ryan leave, but I think he deserves a chance to compete somewhere as his career winds down.
