That handsome gentleman (suggested caption: "Arr! These powdered blues be for landlubbers!") is Leander Jordan, who the Falcons just signed to a free agent contract. This is likely to shake out as more of a depth move at tackle, which the Falcons did not address with the draft. Then again, he's 6'4, 320 pounds of pass-blocking power, so there's a chance he'll manage to play his way into a starting job. Nothing to dislike about this signing, and it indicates that Pet Rhino is still obsessed with making this line over before the season starts.
