Atlanta Falcons: 3 Dream additions to the 2019 roster
By Derek Snyder
3. Von Miller, OLB/DE
Oh, what I’d give to see current Denver Broncos superstar Von Miller play for the Atlanta Falcons in 2019. For the last several years, we’ve seen the Falcons front office try and generate a legit pass-rush, only to see their efforts fall apart time after time. Some may say it’s been bad luck and some may say it’s horrible foresight. Who knows, maybe this is the year Vic Beasley finally figures it out and turns a corner?

It’s definitely far-fetched, as the title of this article mentioned, but could you imagine what Miller would bring to this Dirty Birds squad next season? In nine professional seasons, Miller has recorded 10 sacks or more eight different times. Heck, the one season he didn’t, Miller missed seven games.
With Adrian Clayborn, Takk McKinley and Vic Beasley tasked with leading the Falcons pass-rushing efforts in 2019, its become clear that Atlanta doesn’t have the resources to garner the help they truly need. Plus, after not directly addressing this issue in April’s draft, an addition of Miller would be more than welcomed in the state of Georgia.
We all know this is completely unrealistic, but it doesn’t hurt to dream, right? An addition of Miller would definitely help the Falcons efforts to dethrone the New Orleans Saints and get back to the postseason after a one-year absence.
