Falcons 2015 roster review: offensive tackle

Over the past two seasons, the offensive line has been an area of grave concern for the Falcons. Poor performance, exacerbated by a ridiculous number of injuries to key players, has certainly contributed to the Falcons' struggles in 2013 and 2014. Jake Matthews, who battled through injuries throughout the season, had an okay rookie year after being pressed into action at left tackle when Sam Baker suffered a torn patellar tendon during the preseason. Lamar Holmes also landed on IR with a foot injury, and Ryan Schraeder actually played well at right tackle last season.
