Projecting the Falcons’ starting lineups in 2023

#Falcons CB Jeff Okudah cracks the starting lineup in our latest projection

Since taking over in 2021, Falcons general manager Terry Fontenot has shown a willingness to upgrade the roster by any means necessary. On Tuesday, the team sent a fifth-round pick to the Detroit Lions in exchange for former top-five pick Jeff Okudah.

The Falcons have already added some significant pieces on defense, including safety Jessie Bates III, defensive tackle David Onyemata and defensive end Calais Campbell. On offense, Atlanta traded for tight end Jonnu Smith and gave hefty contracts to right guard Chris Lindstrom and right tackle Kaleb McGary.

So, what will the team’s starting lineups look like in 2023? Check out our latest projections for the Falcons offense, defense and special teams units below.
