Atlanta Falcons: 3 Bold moves to make in 2018 offseason
By Derek Snyder
The Atlanta Falcons are looking to get back to the top of the NFL with a great offseason. Here are three bold moves they must make to get back.
The Atlanta Falcons were able to sneak into the NFC Playoffs last season, but weren’t able to defend their NFC Champion crown. Still, even with an incredibly tough schedule and change to both offensive and defensive coordinators, the Dirty Birds performed exceedingly well. However, there are some still changes they need to make this offseason to ensure their future success.
If we’re being honest, since Dan Quinn’s arrival in Atlanta, the Falcons front-office has done a darn good job of bringing in specific personnel that will exceed in the team’s system. Whether it’s been taking a player early in the NFL Draft or signing some unknown free agents, Atlanta has been able to hit multiple “home runs” over the past three seasons.
Plus, not only have those home runs given the Dirty Birds major production over the last few seasons, but they are vital keys to this team’s success moving forward.
The good news for Atlanta is that they have a decent amount of money to spend in free agency and are entering into an NFL Draft which has a plethora of defensive talent. We saw how much the Falcons defense improved in 2017, but they won’t be satisfied until their the best in the league, while winning a Lombardi Trophy.
With that being said, take a look at three bold moves the Falcons must make this offseason.
