Atlanta Falcons three players to watch closely this pre-season
By Nick Halden
1. What will the secondary look like this season in Atlanta?
Okay, I know the answer here is bad, however, there are so few established players in the Atlanta secondary who starts and at what position? This should be fascinating to watch during the pre-season.
A.J. Terrell is seemingly the only sure starter of this group with the rest being far from household names. Isaiah Oliver and Kendall Sheffield are the only names left who Falcons fans will be familiar with.
Much of the Atlanta secondary moved to Dallas along with former head coach Dan Quinn. Hardly a loss when you consider just how terrible the Atlanta secondary was last season. To call it a dumpster fire would be an insult to smoldering dumpsters everywhere.
It is hard to see secondary being much worse perhaps less established players and a better coach will yield slight improvement. This pre-season should be telling as to who will start and what to expect headed into a year of low defensive expectations.
