Atlanta Falcons have several depth pieces on offense that they can trade in 2020.

Other than the offensive line, there are several other guys that the Atlanta Falcons should think about trading to either add to the depth needed at other places or accumulate draft picks for 2021.

Brian Hill

The depth at running back for the Atlanta Falcons is a plus at the moment. They have four guys that can pick up tough yards and fill certain roles. With Todd Gurley and Ito Smith, Brian Hill become expendable. Sure, some will say Gurley won’t be back in 2021, but there is no guarantee that Hill either. If they can use him to secure other assets, then they should think long and hard about doing so.

Laquon Treadwell or Russell Gage

Both have an opportunity early in the season to make a name for themselves. Yes, Falcons fans seem to love Russell Gage all of the sudden (we can pull receipts from those that were highly upset they traded up in the sixth round for him) but he will be nothing more than a third receiver in Atlanta.

Laquon Treadwell is looking to prove that he isn’t an NFL bust and if he can be productive for the Falcons, like Hill, he should warrant a phone call or two from teams looking to bolster their offense.
