The Atlanta Falcons will roll into this year\u2019s draft with a new President of Football (TM), general manager, and head coach. That means we have to throw out what we know about this team\u2019s tendencies and learn new ones, especially in terms of who this team will be interested in.<\/p>\n
As always, we\u2019re maintaining our 2026 NFL Draft interest tracker right here. This will be full of reported top 30 visits, virtual meetings, and outsized interest shown at post-season all-star games and the scouting combine. The list will start small and grow as we get new reports in the door.<\/p>\n
Last year was a banner year for draft interest matching up with results, as the Falcons actually took players from their local pro day (Jalon Walker), top 30 visits (James Pearce Jr.), and NFL Scouting Combine (Billy Bowman Jr.). Undrafted free agent tackle Jordan Williams, who was also at the local pro day, spent the summer with the team too. Some years only one or two of the names reported out actually land in Atlanta, so that was something.<\/p>\n
We\u2019ll soon find out if the Falcons will telegraph their interest under Ian Cunningham\u2019s front office or not. Stay locked in to this tracker as we learn names.<\/p>\n
