The Falcons have a handful of major needs, but in my mind, no need is bigger than defensive tackle. Grady Jarrett is a borderline Pro Bowler at worst and Jack Crawford is a useful player capable of playing a couple of downs per sequence, but there’s little else in the cupboard here, and Atlanta needs to address that most urgently.
Dontari Poe can fill that need. He did, quite capably, in 2017. Poe is not necessarily among the league’s most elite defensive tackle, but he’s at worst a cut below that, and was solid against the run, strong as a pass rusher, and capable of soaking up double teams last year.
