The Atlanta Falcons haven’t made the playoffs since the 2017 NFL season, but they’ve accumulated a nice stable of talent in recent years, particularly on offense. While former Falcons general manager Terry Fontenot has received his fair share of criticism, many of Atlanta’s top players were drafted during his tenure.

The team just gave wide receiver Drake London and tight end Kyle Pitts contract extensions that pay them the third-most money at their respective positions. Atlanta’s offensive line has been the strength of the team over the last five years or so, but there’s a question mark at right tackle following Kaleb McGary’s retirement.

The Falcons still have arguably the NFL’s top offensive guard in Chris Lindstrom. Running back Bijan Robinson is also in the conversation for the league’s top running back.

While the NFL Network is currently airing its Top 100 countdown, CBS Sports‘ Pete Prisco released his own list of the top 100 players of 2026. Three Falcons players made Prisco’s list, as you can see below.

Bijan Robinson: No. 17

Robinson was the highest-ranked player on the team, landing at No. 17.

“He has developed into one of the game’s best dual-threat backs,” wrote Prisco. “He was fourth in rushing with 1,478 yards and also caught 79 passes for 820 yards. He has averaged 4.9 yards per carry over his three seasons. (Last season: No. 39).”

Chris Lindstrom: No. 33

Lindstrom came in at No. 33 on Prisco’s list.

“He is a big reason why Bijan Robinson had a big year on the ground,” wrote Prisco. “He is outstanding in the run game. He is also solid in pass protection, but it’s his run blocking that stands out. (Last season: No. 43).”

Drake London: No. 96

Last but not least, wide receiver Drake London barely made the cut at No. 96.

“Injuries limited him to 12 games last season, but he still caught 68 passes and seven touchdowns after posting 100 catches and nine touchdowns the year before,” explained Prisco. “That’s why he was rewarded with a new long-term deal. (Last season: NR).”

London just inked a four-year $141 million extension that will pay him more than Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson. If Atlanta can solidify the quarterback position this season, the team could dive in position to end its eight-year playoff drought.
