2. Jessie Bates, S, Cincinnati Bengals

Jessie Bates has a strong history of success during his career with the Cincinnati Bengals, and he definitely has a lot of experience in big games. Despite having some solid talent in the secondary, the Atlanta Falcons could use an experienced player on the backend.

Recently, it came out that Bates had dinner with three Falcons players—Kyle Pitts, A.J. Terrell, and Casey Hayward. That is nothing to glance over even if it just seems like a agent-client meeting. David Mulugheta represents nearly 50 NFL players, so it is no coincidence that three players from the Falcons were shown having dinner with a free agent who will be looking for a new team.

It just seems, at the very least, that Terry Fontenot will offer Jessie Bates a contract even with a couple promising safeties already on the roster.
