Let’s face it, the Atlanta Falcons have too much talent on the team just to finish a disappointing 7-9. The 2019 NFL draft will go a long way in helping to build depth for another Super Bowl run.
Injuries played a big part in the shortcomings of the 2018 NFL season, but there are areas of the team that need to be upgraded. The Atlanta Falcons did go out and sign some offensive lineman to shore up the depth in those positions, but is it really enough?
Their run defense was one of the best in the league, ranking 9th in total rushing yards allowed per game as well as tied for sixth in rushing touchdown allowed but we all knew what the problem was…the nonexistent pass rush that led to one of the worst passing defenses in the NFL.
