Between their off-season moves and playoff win over the Packers last season, the Atlanta Falcons are one team the football world will be watching closely as the 2003 season draws closer.
After advancing past the first round of the playoffs for the first time since their 1998 Cinderella Super Bowl run with a 27-7 win over Green Bay at Lambeau Field last January, the Falcons added several key players this off-season to raise expectations both inside and outside of their locker room.
Two new wide receivers, Peerless Price and MarTay Jenkins, were brought in to give superstar-in-the-making quarterback Michael Vick more speed down the field. Veteran wideout Brian Finneran, who led the squad in 2002 with 56 catches, 838 receiving yards, and six touchdowns, was re-signed as was veteran Trevor Gaylor. "There are plenty of receivers," Vick said after one of the team's Throwing Camp workouts last week. "It's great to have a variety of guys that you can throw to, guys that have different kinds of talents and guys that can make different plays on the field at different spots."
