	Description:		The Atlanta Falcons hit a home run in 2020 first-round cornerback A.J. Terrell, who is poised for a big payday after the 2023 season. Host Aaron Freeman revisits all four of the Falcons’ remaining 2020 draft class to talk about what’s at stake for each entering this year. He explains how and why Terrell is on the verge of being the NFL’s highest-paid cornerback and whether his production will merit it. He compares Terrell to Darius Slay as he did immediately after the 2020 draft and discusses if the new faces in the Falcons secondary will help or hurt Terrell on his path to being CB1. Later, he discusses center Matt Hennessy’s potential to steal the starting left guard spot away from the 2023 second-rounder Matt Bergeron, and if that’ll help Hennessy earn a lucrative second contract in the NFL. Finally, he breaks down 2020 fourth-round picks in linebacker Mykal Walker and safety Jaylinn Hawkins. While Walker hasn’t quite proven himself a capable starter, he’s an ideal backup, which may or may not be enough to keep him around Atlanta. Then, he discusses how Hawkins may have the best chance to stick around beyond this year if he can prove to be invaluable as a dime safety this year.
