Atlanta Falcons potential first-time Pro Bowlers No. 4: A.J. Terrell – CB

Making the Pro Bowl as a cornerback is not easy to do. It is a position that is difficult to garner praise for excellent play, therefore many players who do deserve it don’t make it over players who are bigger names.

Marshon Lattimore made it last year, no one can honestly say he deserved it. He was not very good last season, but since he has made it in years past, he gets lots of votes.

A.J. Terrell will have to do some spectacular things to actually make it.

He probably should be lower on this list just because of the position he plays. He is no doubt talented enough to become a premier corner in the NFL. He has the speed, length, physicality, and confidence to excel in the NFL. He struggled some against bigger receivers, but that is something that should improve going into his second year in the league.

Expect a huge jump for the Atlanta Falcon’s 2020 first-round pick.
