The Atlanta Falcons are wrapping up their final pre-draft visits before the 2025 NFL draft kicks off next week. On Wednesday, the team was linked to two more prospects. According to NFL Network reporter Ian Rapoport, the Falcons are hosting LSU edge prospect Bradyn Swinson on a top-30 visit.
Swinson finished the 2024 season with nine sacks, 43 hurries and two forced fumbles in his first year starting. The Tigers standout is a projected Day 2 prospect who could upgrade an underwhelming Falcons pass rush. A Georgia native, Swinson spent three seasons at Oregon before transferring to LSU in 2023.
While he must improve against the run, Swinson earned a Pro Football Focus pass-rush grade of 90.3 last season.
According to Rapoport, the Falcons also wrapped up a pre-draft meeting with William and Mary offensive lineman Charles Grant. The team has an obvious hole at the center position after losing Drew Dalman in free agency.
While Grant played exclusively at left tackle over the last three seasons, some scouts believe he's best suited to move inside to guard or center in the NFL. In 2024, Grant earned an overall PFF grade of 91.2 and a zone-blocking grade of 93.
Wednesday is the final day for pre-draft visits ahead of the 2025 NFL draft. Here's a look at some other prospects the Falcons have met with.
