Who will the Falcons re-sign from their 2026 free agent list?

"Free agency is surprisingly close, so it's a natural time to remind ourselves of who the Falcons will have to make decisions on in the next couple of months. There are a few impact players on the list, a lot of useful depth, and some players the Falcons can probably let go without breaking much of a sweat. Let's get that list going here so we can talk about it."

"Offensively, the needs aren't as dire, but if Dwayne Ledford stays he's probably going to want Wilkinson around after he played every game this year and proved he can be a solid fill-in starter if injures crop up. Allgeier would be high on my priority list, but I am pessimistic they re-sign him given that he should be able to land a starting job elsewhere."

"to bring back one of Andersen, Woods, or Harrison to provide them with depth at inside linebacker/special teams, and have to figure out whether they're willing to completely rebuild their outside linebacker group or if they can bring back Floyd on a decent deal and Kareem as depth. I do not believe Arnold Ebiketie, who seemed frustrated with his role, will be back. With Onyemata likely departing at age 34 and young players taking over, I'd bring back Street as an early down rotation option."

Free agency is imminent and the Falcons face multiple roster decisions across positions. Specialists Bradley Pinion and Zane Gonzalez are priorities to retain, especially after Lenny Krieg signed elsewhere. Alford re-established value after a poor prior season and merits re-signing. One of Andersen, Woods, or Harrison should return to provide inside linebacker and special-teams depth. The team must decide whether to rebuild outside linebacker or retain Floyd and Kareem for depth. Arnold Ebiketie is unlikely to return, Onyemata is expected to depart at age 34, and Street offers early-down rotation value. Offense needs are smaller; Wilkinson proved reliable as a fill-in and Allgeier may seek a starting role elsewhere. Pitts is an obvious priority, contingent on price.
