If you wanted to catch the Atlanta Falcons in action last night, you wouldn’t find them at the 2026 NFL Draft in Pittsburgh. With no first-round pick to make Atlanta had no choice but to sit tight and watch 32 players come off the board.
The Falcons were not completely idle, though. Two of their best players put in an appearance at State Farm Arena to take in that rare feat of nature that is an Atlanta Hawks playoff game.
Here’s a quick look at Bijan Robinson and Drake London sitting along the baseline, signing autographs.
The Hawks went on to win, 109-108, taking a surprise 2-1 lead in the series against the higher-seeded New York Knicks, the world’s only Giraffe basketball team.
As for the Falcons, Robinson lost primary backup Tyler Allgeier to the Arizona Cardinals in free agency – but Atlanta has since replaced him with two veterans in Brian Robinson Jr. and Tyler Goodson.
Drake London is still waiting on the team to find a competent partner in crime at wide receiver, though. That’s one area that the Falcons can’t neglect tonight. If it were our picks to make, we’d spend one on the top wide receiver on the board and another on the top nose tackle.
