The Atlanta Falcons have their initial 53-man roster, and the practice squad is close to being filled out, but there was a good amount of movement and some deals that we need to discuss.
The Falcons sent a 2027 sixth-round pick in a pick swap with the Kansas City Chiefs to secure the services of offensive tackle Wanya Morris, who did not make the final 53-man roster. Atlanta also dealt a seventh-round pick to Seattle for Michael Jerrell; both moves were made after the sudden retirement of longtime
right tackle Kaleb McGary this offseason. Now, after all the dust has settled and all the roster smoke, as linebacker Josh Woods calls it, has cleared, it’s time to take a look at the Falcons 2027 NFL Draft Picks that were retained after this year’s training camp.
