1. Add a veteran who has plenty left in the tank in Golden Tate

Golden Tate would be a great third option in Atlanta and help push their team offensively to an elite level. He is still a productive player ten years into his career and would likely have the biggest statistical impact of any player on this list.

Atlanta Falcons signing Tate considering their level of need at other positions and lack of cap space is highly unlikely but it would be a great move and instantly give them an established receiver they lack.

Regardless of whether Atlanta Falcons adds a receiver or not their offense will certainly be towards the top of the League and Matt Ryan will have his choice of weapons. Adding a true third receiver is a great move only but only happens in a perfect world considering Atlanta’s range of needs across their roster primarily on the defensive side of the ball.
