The Falcons don’t have much at the tight end position right now, so they’ll have to address it in free agency or the draft. How much money will they allocate to the unit when guys like MyCole Pruitt and Parker Hesse just came off solid seasons? If you missed my 2023 Offseason Overhaul series, where
As a part of their player projections for the 2023 season, FanGraphs believes Ronald Acuña will lead the league in steals with 35. https://twitter.com/mlb/status/1623399720939823104?s=42&t=8chUlZN-D5UCzM-phh7_0A Coming off a torn ACL, I wasn’t sure if Acuña would reel back the stolen base attempts. That didn’t happen; he finished the season with 29 steals and was caught 11
Travon Walker, Jordan Davis, Lewis Cine, and Channing Tindall blew up the combine last year. Now, 12 more of Kirby Smart‘s guys will be in Indy for the 2023 NFL combine, the same place where they won a National Championship a year ago: 12 Georgia players have been invited to the NFL combine: Robert BealStetson

I’m not always a huge fan of Bleacher Report’s trade hypotheticals, but this Braves trade with the Padres was interesting to me. Zach Rymer came up with a few offseason trades: https://twitter.com/BRWalkoff/status/1622660236661366785?s=20&t=jtpIO1-JzB9FRwGM8LBUeA One of them sees Ian Anderson getting sent to the San Diego Padres for some help at shortstop: The Proposal: Atlanta gets SS Ha-Seong
PFF did their 32 franchise tag candidates for each team, and the Falcons had a very obvious choice — Kaleb McGary.

The Falcons have dipped heavily into the Senior Bowl group in recent years; last year they selected Desmond Ridder, Arnold Ebiketie, Troy Andersen, Justin Shaffer, and DeAngelo Malone out of the group; five of their eight draft picks. In 2021, they selected Richie Grant, Frank Darby, Ta’Quon Graham, and Darren Hall; four of their eight
There are few positions the Falcons don’t need to address in free agency, and this is one of them. However, there’s always value around the league, and I’m going to try to find it. If you missed my 2023 Offseason Overhaul series where I went through and spent Atlanta’s cap space in my own perfect
