PFF highlights Atlanta Falcons’ top three players in 2024

Who are the three best players on the Atlanta Falcons right now? The list for most fans will have the same two names at the top of the list, but then things get questionable.

For Pro Football Focus, their opinion is that the best free agent signing of the offseason is the team’s third-best player. They listed quarterback Kirk Cousins ​​behind offensive guard Chris Lindstrom and safety Jessie Bates III.

As I mentioned previously, there isn’t much debate that Lindstrom and Bates are the two best players on the team. You can even make a strong case that they are the best at their respective positions – that was true last season.

And the third choice? You can’t argue with Kirk Cousins ​​after what he did for the Vikings last season. He was close to being an MVP contender had he not been injured.

PFF also had AJ Terrell as an honorable mention, alongside Calais Campbell, which makes no sense. The title of the article was “The Top Three Players on Every NFL Team Entering the 2024 Season” and Campbell is not on the list. We’ll just ignore it.

Every fan will have their own opinion and point of view. Are we based on what a player has already accomplished? What could become of a player? There are so many different factors.

Kirk Cousins ​​​​is the choice for ‘what a player has already accomplished.’ He has been one of the NFL’s most stable players at the most important position.

However, one could argue that the third player on the roster should be AJ Terrell or Bijan Robinson. Terrell has had a fantastic career so far and is only getting better, while Robinson was the team’s best player last year and has the potential to be the best at his position this season.

Ultimately, only time will tell. We can only hope that we’ll be debating ten players when we ask this question a year from now.
