Atlanta Falcons showcase strong draft process under GM Ian Cunningham, but will the coaching staff deliver winning results? Questions loom over Kevin Stefanski and Tommy Rees' offensive direction as the team prepares for the new season.

Host Aaron Freeman breaks down why the Falcons’ draft, highlighted by Avieon Terrell and Zachariah Branch, checks all the right boxes in value and fit, drawing comparisons to Howie Roseman’s Philadelphia Eagles. Hear insights on the team’s new approach to targeting high-upside players on Day 3, the significance of consensus draft boards, and the potential roster shakeups facing Troy Andersen, JD Bertrand, and others. Can Atlanta translate great process into success on the field and make a playoff push, or will optimistic draft grades be squandered by middling results?
