2. Atlanta Falcons

The Atlanta Falcons cleared some cap space by moving on from Julio Jones, but now they need to replace Jones. Adding to the matter is the realization that Calvin Ridley missed the season with a personal issue, and that issue may lead to him being traded to start fresh somewhere new.

All of a sudden a team that had Ridley, Jones, and Kyle Pitts on paper may just have Pitts. The team will need to start to invest in a wide receiver, and Allen Robinson could be a fit for them. He is not Jones, but will not come at the same price.

Still, it gives veteran Matt Ryan a trusted source to throw the football to, and it helps relieve all of the attention heading to the young Pitts. Beyond that, we once again would see Robinson with his best quarterback yet with Ryan.

Considering they cannot move on from Matt Ryan this offseason they should be looking to add a veteran more than a rookie, although realistically they will need both. Still, this makes Robinson a great fit in Atlanta.
