3. Drake London

The biggest positive takeaway through Atlanta’s first two weeks of the season has been how great rookie receiver Drake London has been. He had a great week two against a solid Rams secondary finishing with 86-yards and his first career touchdown. London’s performance included an impressive hurdle and a clutch late catch that helped Atlanta get back in contention.

It is fun to imagine what London could accomplish with a franchise quarterback on an improved roster. We are only two weeks into the season and there shouldn’t be any question the Atlanta Falcons chose correctly when it comes to Drake London.

He is a clear building block for the future and if Atlanta can ever get Kyle Pitts and London going at the same time this season will give them a chance to run a dangerous offense.
