The Atlanta Falcons front office has been busy adding roster depth over the past week.

They sign quarterback Tuatago Viloa to a one-year deal worth $1.3 million.

They also brought in wide receiver Jahan Dotson, edge rushers like Cameron Thomas, Samson

Ebbacom, and Aziz O'Jalari, plus defensive Lyman Chris, Williams and linebacker Channing

Tindall.

These moves aim to build a stronger foundation for the 2026 season while eyeing bigger ambitions

in 2027.

Unlike flashier spending by other NFC South teams, the Falcons took a practical approach

to improve their floor without breaking the bank.

National media outlets have criticized the additions harshly.

Once Illustrated gave the two assigning just the B-minus, despite a solid starter record

of 44 wins against 32 losses, they handed a D-plus to Dotson, calling him mere depth.

Even though some analysts see him as a good fit next to Drake London, other signings earn

C's and C-plus's, factoring in injury histories for players like Ebbacom and O'Jalari.

Interestingly, the players the Falcons let go received higher marks, from B to an A for

running back Tyler Alghier and linebacker Caden Ellis.

Overall, the moves have sparked a bait, but they provide competition and depth that could

pay off long-term for Atlanta.
