12 potential options if Falcons trade

Now that the Atlanta Falcons have Arthur Smith in charge as coach and Terry Fontenot as the new general manager, the team can begin to focus on a critical off-season. The big question the new regime is facing is whether or not to select a quarterback with choice # 4 in the 2021 draft of the NFL.

Matt Ryan is still a very good player, but as Fontenot discussed at his introductory press conference, the team believes in choosing the best player available instead of meeting the needs. The only way for Atlanta to avoid having to make a decision like that would be to switch to fourth place and try to secure more choices.

Here are 12 possible options if the team goes down in the first round.
