The Falcons’ offensive line has been solid as a whole this season. Give credit to the offseason addition of All-Pro center Alex Mack and the maturation and progression of tackles Jake Matthews and Ryan Schraeder. Veterans Andy Levitre and Chris Chester are solid plugs at guard, but Atlanta could really use some improvement at both spots.

Selecting Caleb Peterson in the NFL Draft can, at the very least, provide quality depth for the Falcons.
