Like the rest of the teams in the NFL, the Atlanta Falcons have been busy meeting with the top prospects in the 2023 draft class. On Monday, Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network reported that the Falcons previously hosted Ohio State wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba on a top-30 draft visit.
Smith-Njigba is considered one of the top two receiver prospects in the draft class, along with TCU’s Quentin Johnston.
#OSU WR Jaxon Smith-Njigba, a consensus first-rounder, has already had a Top 30 visit with the #Falcons, source said. Among the many he's scheduled to visit are the #Ravens, #Texans, #Bills and #Cowboys.

In 2022, Smith-Njigba appeared in just three games due to a severe hamstring injury. However, he had a dominant 2021 season for the Buckeyes, finishing with 95 catches for 1,595 receiving yards and nine touchdowns.
Atlanta previously hosted Johnston, another first-round wide receiver prospect, and signed free agents Mack Hollins and Scotty Miller. The Falcons will also reportedly meet with top-10 QB prospect Will Levis.
