Eddie Goldman has seemed like a logical signing for this Falcons team for a while now, and we suggested him as a candidate to join the team several times this spring. With the Falcons needing to add experience and upgrades to their defensive line, and with Goldman’s ties to former Bears general manager Ryan Pace, it was hard to imagine Atlanta going the summer without at least checking into Goldman.
We don’t have to imagine or just idly connect the dots anymore, because Goldman has reportedly signed with the Falcons. He’ll have a chance to make his mark for a defensive line that does have talent, but has more question marks than strengths at this point.
