The widespread expectation in this fanbase is that the Falcons are going to turn over their roster considerably, and it’s probably a safe bet. Particularly on defense, there just aren’t a lot of safe, locked-in starters for the upcoming season.
Before the offseason really gears up, then, it’s worth looking at who the Falcons already have in the building as starting options and how compelling they are, given that the team will make a lot of moves but can’t replace every starter.
On offense, in particular, I’d expect the Falcons to return about half or more of their 2022 starting lineup at the end of the year, counting on a couple of proven veterans and some young starters with upside to carry the day.
