Falcons hosted free agent DL James Smith-Williams

The Atlanta Falcons still need help at edge rusher, a need so chronic it’s a dark sort of joke within the fanbase. Our hope is that they’ll find a potentially elite player to fill that need in this year’s NFL Draft, but even if they accomplish that, there’s a need to stock the rotation with useful options.

We’ll talk about some of those potential options in the next day or two, but in the meantime, it’s worth noting that the Falcons appear to be actively looking. They recently hosted James Smith-Williams, who spent his first four NFL seasons with the Washington Commanders, and if that went well a signing may be on the way.
