Back in June, the Falcons discussed adding help to the trenches, and it seemed logical that those additions would come at the expense of deep cornerback and wide receiver groups. To this point, we’re still waiting for that to happen, as the team has tinkered with the defensive line but not the offensive line, and have cut into that cornerback depth chart but not wide receiver.
The result is that there are 12 wide receivers on this roster right now, and the Falcons just swapped one out for another, cutting rookie Tyshaun James and adding former Cardinal and Eagle KeeSean Johnson.
