QUARTERBACK
Matt Ryan
———Dominique Davis

*Ryan has only missed two-games in his pro career, but if he gets hurt, the Falcons don’t have much experience backing him up. Davis impressed last preseason, but keeping him as a #2 is risky.

RUNNING BACK
Steven Jackson (3DB, GLB)
———Jacquizz Rodgers (3DB)
———Jason Snelling
———Antone Smith
———Josh Vaughan

*Falcons coaches have stated repeatedly that Jackson’s role will be heavy and expansive, leaving not too many touches for Rodgers. S-Jax is injury-prone and 30 years old, however, so a late round handcuff might be in order in deep leagues.
*The offense is pass-heavy, so PPR players should take note of Jackson’s increased value in this format.

WIDE RECEIVER
LWR Julio Jones
———Harry Douglas (WR3)
———Kevin Cone

RWR Roddy White
———Drew Davis

*This is probably the most talented starting wideout duo in football, and with Matt Ryan throwing to them, the sky is the limit.
*Jones has become a star, and he even played part of last season with an ankle sprain. Look for this star to shine even more this year.
*White and Jones (along with Tony Gonzalez) see so many targets, there is very little value to anyone else in this unit.

TIGHT END
Tony Gonzalez
———Chase Coffman
———Levine Toilolo

*Gonzalez is back for his last season and he still projects as a TE1.
*Coffman is the one with experience but rookie Toilolo could be used more (he has very imposing blocking size).

KICKER
Matt Bryant

*Bryant is locked in.
