As I noted yesterday for our draft pick nomination story, when we hit the doldrums of the offseason—and frankly, we’re just about there!—we like to talk about Falcons history more than we would in, say, August or September. We’ll kick things off with something a little off the beaten path.
When we think about our favorite Falcons over the years, we tend to focus on the greats. Plenty of us love Julio Jones, Jessie Tuggle, Tommy Nobis, Matt Ryan, Michael Vick, and Deion Sanders, who were all legitimately great players and stars in their own right for the Falcons.
