After drafting Drake London with the 8th pick in the NFL draft last night, the Falcons pass-catching group looks a lot more formidable. Kyle Pitts and London are both physical specimens who can snatch contested catches over any defender, and are the basis for an elite air attack. However, those two by themselves aren’t enough
The Heat laid the Hawks to rest Tuesday night, winning the series after a tightly contested 97-94 game. It was a tough series for Trae Young, who was locked down by the suffocating Miami defense. It’s evident the Hawks need to surround Young with better secondary options and better defenders. Here’s a list of impending

Atlanta fans in particular
Former Braves fan-favorite Julio Teheran has found himself a new home. The Staten Island FerryHawks, an expansion team in the Atlantic League, signed Teheran and promptly tabbed him as their opening day starter. Needless to say, things haven’t gone the way many had hoped for the Braves’ longtime ace. Although he’s been dreadful over the
Justin Dean replaced Ronald Acuna in the sixth inning of last night’s Stripers game. At that point, I’m sure a lot of fans stopped watching, but if you did, you missed an early candidate for play of the year. Dean’s perfect strike to third base from the corner outfield was one of the best throws
Expectations for Kyle Wright coming out of Vandy were astronomical. But to this point in his career, fans have grown frustrated with his inconsistency. One game, he displays enormous potential; the next, he gets battered by opposing offenses. Many figured 2022 would be the year he either realizes his potential or reaches the end of
Matt Olson is off to a scorching start this season, filling the shoes of Freddie Freeman better than just about anyone could have imagined.
