Falcons land at No. 31 in ESPN’s post-draft power rankings

The Falcons don’t want to hear that they’re not a good football team, and they don’t want to talk about 2023. Atlanta’s brass knows this roster is still a work in progress, but they’re insisting they’ll be competitive and that things are headed in the right direction, and talk of tanking and rebuilds and generally conceding that this might be a losing squad just isn’t on the table.

We’re all hoping this team is right to wave off that talk, and that Atlanta’s not just better than expected, but just plain good. The Falcons shaking off four straight losing seasons and rebounding with what looks like a half-finished roster and a difficult schedule would be awesome, after all, and a return to the postseason is something we’ve been waiting on for a long while.
