"The 2025 season has officially concluded, with the Seattle Seahawks thoroughly dominating the New England Patriots in the Super Bowl. You love to see it. Other things have also happened in recent weeks, like the Falcons hiring Ian Cunningham as their next general manager and the team continuing to fill out the rest of the coaching staff. The Senior Bowl is also behind us, and I've gotten an up close look at over 100 of the top prospects in the 2026 NFL Draft class."
"The Falcons trade pick 48 to the Patriots for picks 63 (2nd), 95 (3rd), and 131 (4th). Ian Cunningham is calling the shots now, and the Falcons open their first draft with a massive change in approach. The Patriots come calling in pursuit of a falling offensive tackle they love, offering an extra (late) Day 2 pick and late fourth rounder. Atlanta needs the picks badly, making a trade down this large a real possibility on draft day."
"Now working from the back of the second round, the Falcons take a shot on an intriguing wide receiver prospect who I'm sure many of you will be familiar with: Georgia's Zachariah Branch. Branch is small in stature (5'10, 180) but brings a lot of what Atlanta needs to the table. He's a dynamic athlete and YAC demon, capable of making big plays in space and in the short area of the field."
The Seattle Seahawks won the 2025 Super Bowl by thoroughly dominating the New England Patriots. The Atlanta Falcons hired Ian Cunningham as general manager and continued assembling the coaching staff. The Senior Bowl concluded and over 100 top 2026 draft prospects were evaluated. The Falcons traded pick 48 to the Patriots for picks 63, 95, and 131 to accumulate more mid-round capital. From pick 63, the Falcons selected Georgia wide receiver Zachariah Branch, a 5'10, 180-pound playmaker with strong YAC ability, short-area explosiveness, and long speed to threaten defenses.
