Tight end was a useful position for the Falcons in 2018 on more than one front. Gone are the days of a quiet Austin Hooper season and whatever Levine Toilolo managed to throw in, as Hooper had a (relative) breakout year, Logan Paulsen was basically a more useful version of Toilolo, and Eric Saubert made progress as a young contributor late in the year. Tight end was serviceable this year at worst.
The good news for Atlanta is that minus Paulsen, all their options at the position are still young and promising.
