The Atlanta Falcons were widely expected to target pass rush help at the trade deadline... Now the deadline has come and gone and Atlanta clearly couldn't get a deal done at a price point they liked, so they will march on with what they have on the roster.
While the popular targets were Giants pass rusher Azeez Ojulari and Titans Arden Key and Harold Landry, those two teams either did not want to budge on compensation... or they simply weren't ready to give up on their respective seasons.
Barring a significant pivot... the #Giants will retain LB Azeez Ojulari. They'd made it clear they weren't going to give him away and held firm.
It's a bit of a disappointing result because the Falcons pass rush has been so lackluster this year. Atlanta may be looking at their three sack, high-pressure effort against the Dallas Cowboys and concluding that mixing up playing time... will bear fruit.
