Falcons 53 man roster projection after Week 1 of preseason

We know, we keep telling you not to put much stock into preseason. Looking ahead is just so irresistible.

That’s why we’re loading up another crack at the 53 man roster, which we’ll do on a weekly basis from here on out to reflect what our gut is telling us, plus games and practices.

You’ll note that there are not major changes here, which is because we shouldn’t be reading too much into a single preseason game. I’ve bolded those changes, though, so you can find and debate them more easily.
