No one was more excited about the Falcons trading Julio Jones out of the NFC South than New Orleans Saints fans, who were tired of having to watch him square off against the Saints secondary twice a year. While Jones might be in Nashville now, the Falcons aren’t taking much of a step backward on offense, as they drafted Kyle Pitts in the first round.
Pitts, the No. 4 overall pick out of Florida, was a dominant tight end during his time in the swamp and is going to bring that nastiness to the division.
