The Atlanta Falcons have to look no further than the Philadelphia Eagles to see a successful blueprint for building around a young quarterback like Desmond Ridder. The Eagles showed a lot more confidence in Jalen Hurts than most outsiders expected, and it ultimately led them from four inconclusive starts as a rookie to a Super Bowl berth in his third season. The parallels between Ridder and Hurts' path to the top are eerily similar and Aaron Freeman breaks it down. He discusses how the Eagles' strength lies in their dominant defensive line, and how the Falcons' hiring of defensive coordinator Ryan Nielsen signals that the team is on the verge of building its own. Aaron breaks down several of the free agents that the team could target to revamp their defense this offseason, as well as looking at the success of the Cincinnati Bengals by boosting their pass rush thanks to free agent signings.
