The Atlanta Falcons are expecting bigger contributions from their rookie class. Host Aaron Freeman breaks down why so many are intrigued to see what Bralen Trice, Ruke Orhorhoro, Brandon Dorlus, and Casey Washington can do in their preseason debuts on Friday vs. the Miami Dolphins. He discusses Trice's potential impact as a designated pass-rusher alongside Arnold Ebiketie and how that will impact the defense in 2024 and beyond.

Later, he discusses Orhorhoro and Dorlus' potential to impact early as rookies as they keep veterans Grady Jarrett and David Onyemata fresh. Will they make impact players early in the season, or will we have to wait and see their development late much like Zach Harrison's 2023 season? Then, he discusses Washington's potential to have a big summer as Michael Penix's preferred target at wide receiver. Finally, he discusses the recent pickup of QB Nathan Rourke and how it could lead to a Taylor Heinicke trade down the road.
