The Atlanta Falcons made a big splash on the first day of the 2025 NFL Draft, and I applaud them for it. Fontenot addressed the pass rush with a historic level of aggression by drafting Jalon Walker at 15 and trading up for James Pearce Jr.
Atlanta lost pick 46 in the trade for Pearce but acquired pick 101 from the Rams in the process. It’s the second-to-last pick of Round 3. A plethora of quality prospects remain, and Fontenont can still add an impact player today.
Here are the best-remaining prospects that the Falcons could target:
- iDL CJ West, Indiana
- iDL Jordan Phillips, Maryland
- iDL Jamaree Caldwell, Oregon
- CB Jacob Parrish, Kansas State
- CB Cobee Bryant, Kansas
- CB Justin Walley, Minnesota
- TE Gunnar Helm, Texas
- S Billy Bowman Jr, Oklahoma
- LB Danny Stutsman, Oklahoma
This interior defensive line class is deep, and the Falcons have the potential to land a solid prospect at pick 101.
