The Atlanta Falcons added another piece in their defensive overhaul this offseason, signing defensive end Calais Campbell to a one-year deal on Wednesday. Host Aaron Freeman breaks down how Campbell will impact and improve a Falcons pass rush and how it could develop into the best rush the team has formed in two decades.

Then, he discusses how Campbell's addition impacts the team's plans in the first round of the 2023 NFL Draft. He discusses why he thinks the Falcons pick will likely come down to defensive tackle Jalen Carter (Georgia), cornerback Christian Gonzalez (Oregon), or defensive end Tyree Wilson (Texas Tech). He also discusses alternative options and why defensive end Myles Murphy (Clemson) and running back Bijan Robinson (Texas) are likelier picks than cornerback Devon Witherspoon (Illinois), defensive end Lukas Van Ness (Iowa), and outside linebacker Nolan Smith (Georgia).

Finally, Aaron discusses Falcons owner Arthur Blank's controversial comments in regards to comparing the team's unwillingness to pursue quarterback Lamar Jackson this offseason after their failed pursuit of quarterback Deshaun Watson a year ago.
