With free agency just weeks away, Atlanta Falcons fans near and far are trying to prognosticate as to how exactly the team is going to approach the process.
In some years, the team opens its wallet to reel in a big fish or two. In other years, they stand pat and try to focus on paying and developing the roster at hand.
For a while, it seemed 2019 could've gone either way, but we now have an indication we may be headed into an offseason of the latter. Jason Butt at The Athletic reports that the Falcons may be standing pat from pursuing any big names in free agency, the logical conclusion of their stated desire to re-sign Grady Jarrett, give Julio Jones a new contract, and keep Vic Beasley around at $12.
