2. Roddy White- 10,863- receiving yards

Roddy White may not be the best receiver in Atlanta history but there is certainly an argument to be made he is the all-time favorite. White was with the team from 2005-2015 and was the heartbeat of the offense during most of the decade he spent with the team.

White played his entire career with the Atlanta Falcons and finished his career with 63-touchdowns and a long history of clutch plays. White isn’t the best receiver in franchise history, however, you can make an argument not only he is the most beloved but perhaps the most clutch as well. He always had a way of making THE play Atlanta needed that gave them a chance to win the game.

Many fans forget as well how big Roddy White was for Atlanta even at the end of his carer. The attention he demanded and his experience at the position was a huge advantage to Julio Jones as he came into the league. White will forever be remembered not only as one of the best receivers in the history of the franchise but as one of the best Atlanta Falcons of all time. He was that great for a team that badly needed box office.
