- Predicting the Falcons' depth chart for Week 1 game vs. Buccaneers
The Atlanta Falcons have a little over a week left to tinker with their depth chart and starting lineups before next Sunday's season opener against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers . The team has named two rookie starters on defense, and there could be a couple more if Jalon Walker or James Pearce Jr. enter the lineup.
On offense, the starting spot still up for grabs is the right tackle position. Kaleb McGary is out for the season, and the team swung a trade for second-year offensive tackle Michael Jerrell . However, we don't think Jerrell will be the starter in Week 1. Currently, we have Elijah Wilkinson penciled in at right tackle.
