    There’s nothing that’s easy about selecting players in the NFL Draft. Sure, the first round offers a great crop of talent, but even that’s a challenging task for an NFL general manager and his scouting staff.

    The Falcons addressed the defensive end position in a couple of ways this offseason.

    Draft weekend is one of the busiest for the front office on the NFL calendar, but that’s also true for other departments, as well. There’s no shortage of things to do during those three days for those of us in the digital media and Falcons creative departments, so we thought we’d peel back the curtain [...]

    Fourth-round pick, Clemson defensive end Malliciah Goodman, has ridiculous hands. He might as well have frying pans attached to the end of his also freakishly-long arms. Because we like to put our social media coordinator Morgan Andrew into awkward situations, we tasked her with taking a photo comparison of her hand with one of Goodman’s, [...]

    Surrounded by the likes of early-twenty-somethings, Falcons linebacker Brian Banks sticks out like a sore thumb.

    This blog needs very little introduction. The videos speak for themselves. Part 2 is especially moving as cameras were on hand in Washington when Desmond Trufant received the call from the Falcons to inform him that he would be their selection at No. 22 overall. It’s definitely worth the few minutes to watch the two [...]
