Falcons updated depth chart following Judon, Simmons additions
It isn't too often that you can say a team got a lot better in the middle of August. Usually, the free agency market is picked clean, the draft is well over, and players are going down with injuries.
While the Atlanta Falcons have already seen their fair share of injuries, they just became a much better team with the trade for Matthew Judon and the signing of Justin Simmons. Suddenly, we have a legit pass rusher and the unquestioned best safety duo in the National Football League.
A defense, that had significant holes a few days ago, has now entered the realm of potentially being a top-ten unit in the league. Let's look at the overall depth chart for this team following the major additions.
