The market for Evan Mathis should heat up in the near future

Will the Falcons be interested?

By now, everyone knows that Evan Mathis is the best guard available on the open market, and certainly someone the Falcons should at least have passing interest in. What's less clear is why his market has taken so much time to firm up, but it's certainly possible, as Mathis guesses, that his market will heat up in the next week or so.

The reasons for that are myriad. Teams like the Broncos and Falcons, who could use a talented interior lineman, either have or will have their stud receivers locked up in the near future, giving them a clearer cap picture.
