Locked On Falcons - Daily Podcast On The Atlanta Falcons

Atlanta Falcons weigh risky draft options as Zachariah Branch’s NFL potential sparks debate. Is the Georgia wide receiver more gadget player than true No. 2 target? Host Aaron Freeman scrutinizes Branch’s fit alongside Drake London, raising concerns about his heavy screen usage, slot limitations, and lasting value as a second-round pick. The conversation spotlights how Atlanta might better address their wide receiver needs—through free agency or by targeting higher upside prospects like K.C. Concepcion.  The episode also spotlights Texas cornerback Malik Muhammad as a third-round candidate, analyzing how his physicality might complement A.J. Terrell but questioning his long-term upside and athleticism. Later, Aaron unpacks the importance of NFL Combine context, debates popular athleticism metrics like Relative Athletic Score, and warns against double-counting traits when projecting prospects.  #atlantafalcons #nfl #nflcombine #2026nfldraft #mockdraft #nfldraft #zachariahbranch #malikmuhammad #drakelondon #ajterrell  Follow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms… 🎧 https://link.chtbl.com/LOFalcons?sid=YouTube  Locked On NFL League-Wide: Every Team, Fantasy, Draft & More 🎧 https://linktr.ee/LockedOnNFL  Become a Locked On Falcons Insider for in-depth analysis every day! https://joinsubtext.com/lockedonfalcons  Join our Discord server! https://discord.gg/lockedonfalcons  Everydayer Club  If you never miss an episode, it’s time to make it official.

A humbled Geno Smith could be the Atlanta Falcons’ best bridge quarterback option as the team evaluates life after Kirk Cousins. Host Aaron Freeman and Jarvis Davis (Locked On Sports Atlanta) debate whether Smith’s experience, recent struggles with the Raiders, and willingness to accept a short-term mentorship role make him a smart fit for Atlanta’s evolving roster. Is Geno ready to put ego aside and guide Michael Penix’s transition, or will his demands and mentality clash with the Falcons’ plans?  Key conversations focus on Atlanta’s quarterback market strategy, the uncertainties surrounding Michael Penix’s readiness, and how potential moves around Kyler Murray, Tua Tagovailoa, and Malik Willis will shape the Falcons’ options. Joe Flacco and other veterans are compared as affordable backup targets, while Kevin Stefanski’s influence and the team’s fiscal responsibility play a crucial role in decision-making.  #atlantafalcons #nfl #genosmith #michaelpenix #kirkcousins #freeagency #joeflacco #tuatagovailoa #kylermurray  Follow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms… 🎧 https://link.chtbl.com/LOFalcons?sid=YouTube Locked On NFL League-Wide: Every Team, Fantasy, Draft & More 🎧 https://linktr.ee/LockedOnNFL Become a Locked On Falcons Insider for in-depth analysis every day! https://joinsubtext.com/lockedonfalcons Join our Discord server! https://discord.gg/lockedonfalcons Everydayer Club  If you never miss an episode, it’s time to make it official.

Atlanta Falcons’ so-called “loaded” roster faces scrutiny after a disappointing 2025 season. Is the real issue overrated talent or underappreciated coaching? Host Aaron Freeman challenges the popular belief that shaky coaching sank the Falcons, arguing instead that deficiencies across the roster, especially at wide receiver and offensive line, played a bigger role in the team’s downfall. With names like Bijan Robinson, Drake London, and Kyle Pitts delivering career years, why did the offense stall, and did Michael Penix’s struggles reflect coaching failures or deeper problems?The conversation explores how fantasy football perceptions skew expectations, the pitfalls of Atlanta’s recent top-10 picks, and critical decisions facing GM Terry Fontenot. Can Kevin Stefanski’s regime unlock the Falcons’ true potential by finally fixing the trenches and upgrading weapons? Find out why play-calling, roster construction, and quarterback development hold the keys to Atlanta’s future in the NFC South and beyond.#atlantafalcons #nfl #kevinstefanski #raheemmorris #terryfontenot #iancunningham #bijanrobinson #kylepitts #drakelondon #michaelpenixjr #darnellmooneyFollow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms… 🎧 https://link.chtbl.com/LOFalcons?sid=YouTubeLocked On NFL League-Wide: Every Team, Fantasy, Draft & More 🎧 https://linktr.ee/LockedOnNFLBecome a Locked On Falcons Insider for in-depth analysis every day! https://joinsubtext.com/lockedonfalconsJoin our Discord server! https://discord.gg/lockedonfalconsEverydayer Club If you never miss an episode, it’s time to make it official.

As key defensive minds in Jerry Gray and Mike Rutenberg depart the Atlanta Falcons for new roles, can Jeff Ulbrich and the coaching staff keep the defense elite? The Falcons face a big challenge replacing Gray’s decades of NFL experience and Rutenberg’s pivotal role in elevating Atlanta’s pass defense in 2025, all while aiming to maintain the defensive continuity that sparked optimism last season. Host Aaron Freeman breaks down the significance of these coaching exits, what it means for the Falcons’ “brain trust,” and how the team addresses the NFL’s minority head coaching pipeline issues with the hiring of Jordan Reid as assistant quarterbacks coach. The conversation spotlights relevant trends around opportunities for Black coaches in quarterback and tight end roles, the path to coordinator roles, and whether the Falcons are part of the solution to reshaping NFL hiring practices. Will Atlanta’s changes help build a more sustainable and diverse leadership pipeline? #atlantafalcons #nfl #kevinstefanski #jeffulbrich #jerrygray #mikerutenberg #brianflores #rooneyrule Follow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms… 🎧 https://link.chtbl.com/LOFalcons?sid=YouTubeLocked On NFL League-Wide: Every Team, Fantasy, Draft & More 🎧 https://linktr.ee/LockedOnNFLBecome a Locked On Falcons Insider for in-depth analysis every day! https://joinsubtext.com/lockedonfalconsJoin our Discord server! https://discord.gg/lockedonfalconsEverydayer Club If you never miss an episode, it’s time to make it official.

Atlanta Falcons face pivotal quarterback choices as the offseason heats. Will Kirk Cousins return as QB1, or could newcomers like Malik Willis or Mac Jones headline the future? Michael Penix’s development adds intrigue, but questions loom about whether the team will prioritize a proven starter, a strategic bridge, or simply bolster its backup ranks. Host Aaron Freeman analyzes three critical "QB buckets" shaping Atlanta’s next move: the blue-chip starter, the veteran bridge, and the reliable backup. The discussion highlights potential fits such as Justin Fields, Jacoby Brissett, Joe Flacco, and Tyrod Taylor, weighing their upside, costs, and compatibility with Kevin Stefanski's vision. Can the Falcons secure a talented leader or will market forces steer them toward a conservative solution? #atlantafalcons #nfl #kirkcousins #michaelpenix #kevinstefanski #jacobybrissett #justinfields #malikwillis #macjones #tyrodtaylor #joeflacco Follow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms… 🎧 https://link.chtbl.com/LOFalcons?sid=YouTubeLocked On NFL League-Wide: Every Team, Fantasy, Draft & More 🎧 https://linktr.ee/LockedOnNFLBecome a Locked On Falcons Insider for in-depth analysis every day! https://joinsubtext.com/lockedonfalconsJoin our Discord server! https://discord.gg/lockedonfalconsEverydayer Club If you never miss an episode, it’s time to make it official.
