By now you have probably heard the same refrain a hundred times this offseason. If only the Atlanta Falcons could find their franchise quarterback they'd have an elite offense, and might even be a very dangerous playoff team.
Until somebody steps up to take up Matt Ryan's former mantle as the team's established QB of the future, they will continue to find themselves butting their heads on a low ceiling despite having one of the NFL's most-talented young rosters.
The story is told yet again in a new list from CBS Sports which ranks each team's starting QB-RB-WR combo, which has the Falcons coming in at No. 16 - based almost entirely on the strength of Bijan Robinson and Drake London.
London has managed to put up some really impressive receiving numbers despite having to work with a series of failures at quarterback, while Robinson has grown into the most-exciting running back in the sport. Along with tight end Kyle Pitts, few teams can boast of having as much talent at the skill positions as the Falcons.
They could still use more help at the wide receiver spots below London - but if either Zachariah Branch or Jahan Dotson can step up into that WR2 role it would help a great deal.
The Falcons should probably be looking at the remaining free agents at this spot anyway, including Deebo Samuel, Tyreek Hill and Stefon Diggs.
