It was only a matter of time before Atlanta’s interest in general manager candidates turned to interviews, and apparently the day has arrived. The team has posted a story indicating that they’ve interviewed two candidates, one with a long and rich experience with the Falcons, and the other with long and rich experience as an NFL general manager.
Let’s start with the in-house candidate first. Anthony Robinson has been involved in personnel for the Falcons for the past 13 years, per the team, starting as a scouting assistant, working his way up to a regional scout for the Southern and Eastern portions of the United States before securing the director of college scouting role in 2019.
