One thing that has been clear this year is that the Atlanta Falcons need a burner at the wide receiver position. Damiere Byrd has been great but he will be 30 in January, so getting a younger speedster might be a priority. Roman Wilson fits that mold as he is described as an explosive receiver who should run a sub-4.4 forty-yard dash.

Drake London needs some help, plain and simple. Getting Kyle Pitts back and adding this deep threat would do wonders. The Falcons have already shown a willingness to take playmakers with top picks, so why wouldn’t they be willing to take Roman Wilson in the second or third round?

Whoever the quarterback ends up being in 2023, he needs more than just Drake London on the outside. Roman Wilson, or even his teammate Ronnie Bell, could be an option. Watch out for those two during the CFP.
