The Atlanta Falcons are actively preparing for the upcoming 2025 NFL draft, particularly focusing on replacing key players lost during the free agency period, namely center Drew Dalman and defensive tackle Grady Jarrett. According to a recent mock draft, the Falcons are expected to use their 15th overall pick to select Alabama linebacker Jihaad Campbell, a versatile player recognized for his speed and ability to blitz effectively.

Following this, the Falcons aim to draft Georgia center Jared Wilson in the second round to fill the void left by Dalman. Wilson impressed scouts with his athleticism at the NFL Scouting Combine and is noted for his productive college career without allowing a sack. Additionally, Atlanta is projected to select Virginia safety Jonas Sanker in the fourth round to bolster their defensive depth. The team is also open to trading down to gain more draft capital, which will be crucial given their limited number of picks.
