5 Veteran receivers the Atlanta could pair with Desmond Ridder
By Nick Halden
5. Equanimeous St. Brown
The obvious problem with this move is the fact Chicago is the one team in the league with more cap space than the Falcons. They might be willing to overpay for their free-agent receiver who showed some chemistry with Justin Fields as the season went on. Fields has struggled as a passer before showing flashes this season bringing St. Brown back as a third or fourth option is likely on Chicago’s off-season list.
However, if the team passes on St. Brown the Falcons could find a great depth receiver capable of breaking the big play. St. Brown isn’t going to give you the production that any of the aforementioned names will, however, St. Brown is the exact type of signing the Falcons need to make to add depth to the receiver group. St. Brown finished the season with 323 yards on a team that is completely focused on the run game. It was a solid season though one that will be overlooked considering the bigger names hitting the market.
