ESPN projects Falcons to franchise tag, work out long-term deal with Kaleb McGary

The Falcons could turn over three-fifths of their starting offensive line in 2023, if they want to. Drew Dalman is a solid bet to start at center but hardly a lock, the team’s starting left guard in 2022 is not currently under contract, and Kaleb McGary is also a free agent.

Then again, maybe they’ll run it back after an encouraging season where the line was elite paving the way for Tyler Allgeier and Cordarrelle Patterson. If so, Elijah Wilkinson would be an affordable re-addition to compete with a few young guard options, and Dalman would be counted on to improve in his second year as a starter.
