The Falcons have not made a ton of additions on offense to this point. They have a new blocking tight end in Lee Smith, a potential lead back in Mike Davis, a reserve offensive lineman in Josh Andrews, and some familiar returning faces like Jaeden Graham and Christian Blake. Considering they cut James Carpenter, one of last year’s starting guards, they’ve made at best a small improvement in the offense’s overall talent level, and I say that as someone who really likes the Davis addition.
The draft will change that, but it’s also understandable that less focus has gone into the offense to this point for a couple of reasons.
