Locked On Falcons - Daily Podcast On The Atlanta Falcons

The Atlanta Falcons continued their busy August by locking up cornerback A.J. Terrell to a four-year contract extension. Host Aaron Freeman and Jarvis Davis (‪@LockedOnATL‬) explain why it's a well-deserved extension for Terrell. They discuss his consistency and why it has earned him this big deal even despite not having the splash plays like interception to back it up. Later, they discuss what other players and positions they'd add to Falcons GM Terry Fontenot's August shopping list. Jarvis makes the case why a pass-rusher like Yannick Ngakoue could be a useful piece to the Falcons defense. Finally, they look ahead to the preseason finale against the Jacksonville Jaguars and discuss Taylor Heinicke's roster status, the competition for backup running back, and if DeAngelo Malone can flash on defense. #trainingcamp #atlantafalcons #ajterrell Part of the ‪@LockedOnATL‬ Follow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms… 🎧 https://link.chtbl.com/LOFalcons?sid=...

The Atlanta Falcons are expected to get a big boost on defense from having two stars at safety in Jessie Bates and Justin Simmons. Host Aaron Freeman and guest Cody Alexander (‪@MatchQuarters‬) break down what those two and Matthew Judon are bringing to Atlanta. Cody explains why having two interchangeable, ball-hawking safeties will help the Falcons defense and breaks down how Richie Grant fits into the mix as a big nickel/third safety. 

Later, Cody explains how Judon's "juice" as a pass-rusher is much-needed in Atlanta. He discusses how he impacts the defensive front, and what Judon adds in coverage and as a run defender. Finally, Cody shares some observations of the Falcons during the preseason, weighs in on their cornerback position opposite A.J. Terrell and if Clark Phillips can impact there.

The Atlanta Falcons expect to have new defensive playmakers Matt Judon and Justin Simmons integrated into their defense before Week 1. Host Aaron Freeman and guest Marc Raimondi ( @espn ) discuss the challenges of that. They break down how quickly it can be expected to get both players up to speed on their new teams, with Judon spending the past month with the New England Patriots, while Simmons has been a free agent on the streets. 

Later, they discuss how big a boost the Falcons as a whole can expect from these two players this season. They also discuss how big a boost individual players like Arnold Ebiketie could get from the presence of a pass-rusher like Judon opposite him. Finally, Marc breaks down the logjam at cornerback that will impact the team's final roster decisions.

The Atlanta Falcons may have reached a new turning point in recent team history with the additions of Matthew Judon and Justin Simmons. Host Aaron Freeman breaks down why it's so different from how the team has done business in the past. He discusses GM Terry Fontenot's acknowledgment of their initial interest but wonders why the team waited so long. But despite waiting a while, they made the moves earlier than they did a year ago, which represents growth. 

Later, he discusses why Judon and Simmons help establish a more solid floor for the Falcons defense in 2024, and why they'll still be relying on young, unproven players to raise the unit's ceiling. He explains why they still need contributions from Richie Grant, Troy Andersen, Arnold Ebiketie, Mike Hughes, and Clark Phillips. Finally, he discusses Judon's decision to not push for a new contract as part of his trade to Atlanta and he discusses the potential challenges that could raise for the Falcons in the future. #trainingcamp #atlantafalcons

The Atlanta Falcons only have a few roster spots available on their 53-man roster after two preseason games. Host Aaron Freeman breaks down which players are on the bubble for the final six spots. He discusses Taylor Heinicke's status as the third quarterback, Jase McClellan vs. Carlos Washington at running back, Chris Blair's grip on a spot at wide receiver, and who will be the last man standing along the offensive line. He also discusses some potential trade candidates should the Falcons look to move Heinicke. 

Later, he looks at the defense and why there may only be one or two spots available at safety, cornerback, and outside linebacker. He discusses the two-man race at safety between Dane Cruikshank and Micah Abernathy, the three-way race at cornerback between Natrone Brooks, Kevin King, and Anthony Johnson, and the battle between DeAngelo Malone and Demone Harris at outside linebacker. He breaks down why Brooks' stellar tackling against the Baltimore Ravens is exactly what you want to see from a starting cornerback. 

Finally, he puts a button on the issue of Michael Penix not playing against the Ravens and why Raheem Morris' decision was made in regards to injury risk rather than the preseason being inconsequential.
