Falcons-themed open thread, Sunday 2/16 edition

Welcome to Sunday afternoon! Borrowing a prompt from Twitter this week because it’s a good one.

Name one college football star you were sure was going to be a pro football star but that didnt, or has not yet happened. Go!

Who was the college player, Falcon, non-Falcon, or both, who fit this criteria for you?

My answer has always been Steve Broussard, the former Washington State running back who joined the Falcons just as I was becoming a fan. I remember being continually baffled as to why he was not being utilized more as a kid, and he ended up spending four largely unimpressive seasons in Atlanta before putting together a few more solid but unspectacular years in Denver and Seattle.
