The Atlanta Falcons coaching staff will get their first chance to work with the 2014 rookie class this weekend, with rookie mini-camps kicking off on Friday and running through Sunday.
Traditionally, this is little more than an opportunity to get acquainted with the rookie class, hit them with a ton of information, get them the playbook and put them through a few early drills. For the rookies, it's a chance to start an offseason full of workouts and spring up the steep learning curve every young player faces out of college.
We'll have an open thread on Friday for you guys to discuss the observations that are sure to be flying around, but in the meantime, talk about your expectations for rookie mini-camp.
