Expect a heated battle for Falcons interior OL jobs

Let’s start with my take: The Falcons will probably have nine offensive linemen on the initial 53-man roster. If not, given their history under Dan Quinn, I’d say that keeping eight is more likely than keeping ten.

I’d also say that barring injuries, Matthews, Mack, Carpenter, Brown, Lindstrom, McGary and Sambrailo are set to fill seven of those spots. That leaves probably two, at most three, and perhaps just one remaining opening for Wes Schweitzer, Brandon Fusco, John Wetzel, Adam Gettis, Sean Harlow, Matt Gono and the incoming undrafted prospects or other future signings.
