7 EDGE options for the Falcons in free agency

Since 2019 sack leader Vic Beasley won’t be returning in 2020, Atlanta has a real need for a pass-rushing defensive end.

2019 Stats: 41 tackles (26 solo), 8 sacks, 1 INT, 2 passes defended

Analysis: Everson Griffen has always been somewhat overshadowed by Vikings teammate Danielle Hunter, but his production over ten years has been impressively consistent (74.5 career sacks). Griffen, who will be 33 this season, finished with eight sacks and 24 QB hits in 2019. He’s certainly not a long-term option, but for one year, he could step in and duplicate Beasley’s production, while offering more as a run defender.
