Defense should be the Falcons strength with standout Tackle Stephen Barrera (who will play big time college ball), LB Jon Witten, and Corner Nate Snow. On offense, Jarred Mack played a little last year at RB and will have an increased role. Randall Holliman should also see carries. There are enough newcomers to add a little depth to line play as players learn on the fly. Eric Canas will step in at QB. Repeating a 6-4 season is possible, but a lot of key players must emerge for a team that will likely be better towards the end of the year.
