NFL Offseason Roundup: Atlanta Falcons


Record: 4-12

2007 Season: This was a season for the Falcons to forget and began with the Vick drama. The Falcons were never really a very good team and without Vick's heroics their record pretty much reflected the talent level. The Falcons did win four games, and do have a decent defense. However, the 2007 season is forgetable at best.

2008 Projections: The Falcons need help and they need it quick. QB was a revolving door last year, so look for the Falcons to spend a high draft pick on the position. Also, Dunn isn't getting any younger. Although the team does have Norwood, they could take a serious look at McFadden. On defense, the Falcons also need help. Hall is an excellent cover corner, but can anyone name the other CB. I thought so. The Falcons could also use more push up front. Look for them to address these issues in the draft.

2008 Season: Going to be a long season in hot-lanta. The QB will need time to develop and I doubt the Falcons will secure many free agents. The running game could keep them in a few games, but I not thinking many.

Projection: 4th NFC South
