3 biggest positions of concern for the Atlanta Falcons heading into summer

Who is going to regularly address the quarterback in this Atlanta Falcons defense? The most reasonable answer would be Grady Jarrett or you have high expectations of Arnold Ebiketie. Regardless, any reasonable conclusion will lead to the fact that this team has no established passer at the edge position.

This is why many have been critical and continue to be a part of the Michael Penix Jr. pick. That’s not to say the quarterback won’t prove to be a starter or a solid long-term decision. But rather emphasizing that this team still refuses to take a position of vital importance in the current championship.

Arnold Ebiketie and Lorenzo Carter would be your starting favorites if the season started today. Carter can’t get to the quarterback but is an excellent defender and finisher while Ebiketie is the complete opposite. You’re missing not only an elite threat, but also a complete starter at the position. Atlanta fans have to hope that rookie Trice defies all odds and finds a way to contribute and force his way into the lineup sooner than expected. When looking for this team’s biggest weakness, the position is glaring and it’s not particularly tight.
