The Atlanta Falcons have made a few moves at the running back position this offseason. They resigned Cordarrelle Patterson and Qadree Ollison as well as signed Damien Williams.
With Patterson and Ollison coming back and Williams joining the squad, should the Atlanta Falcons still draft a running back in the 2022 NFL Draft?
The Atlanta Falcons should still consider drafting a RB late
Cordarrelle Patterson, Damien Williams, Mike Davis, Qadree Ollison, and Caleb Huntley are the five guys currently under contract at the running back position for the Atlanta Falcons.
Certainly, at first glance, it seems like the Falcons are set at the position, but hold on, they may not be done adding talent to the position.
Cordarrelle Patterson and Damien Williams seem like the only two locks for the Falcons roster come August. They are two veterans who have been in the league for a combined 16 seasons, while they still have a lot of juice left, they are not getting any younger. Not to mention, Williams is only under contract for one year while Patterson is only under contract for two years.
Mike Davis had a disappointing first year with Atlanta and it could cost him his job eventually. It is kind of surprising that he has not been cut yet, but we may eventually see it. He is not the future at the position.
Then you have Qadree Ollison who was surprisingly effective last season when given the chance. You would think he currently has the edge over Mike Davis as the third running back—in the event that the team does not add anyone else—due to him being younger and cheaper.
Lastly, we have Caleb Huntley who not much is known about him. He is entering his second season and could be a candidate for the practice squad again.
The moral of the story is Atlanta really does not have a guy who is locked in as the team’s running back for the next four-plus years. This is why they could elect to draft a talented rookie and have him split time with Patterson and Williams.
Do not count out the team taking a running back late in the draft.
