Free agency is right around the corner, and we’re all ready to see what the Falcons will be up to. Before we get there, though, it’s good to take stock of where this team is.
The Falcons are coming off of a 7-10 season where they won a lot of close games, lost a couple of squeakers and got blown out of the water by some very good football teams. They saw A.J. Terrell blossom into a star, Cordarrelle Patterson truly arrive, and saw Kyle Pitts put his early stamp on the team, but they also suffered from lackluster play on both lines, an offense that absolutely ground to a halt at times, and some of the head-scratching decisions you’d expect from a rookie head coach.
