UNDER THE RADAR: De’Zhaun Stribling and Others Poised to CLIMB Atlanta Falcons Draft Board on Day 2

As the Atlanta Falcons eye under-the-radar draft steals, will any become key contributors in 2026? Host Aaron Freeman spotlights five potential Day 2 surprises: De'Zhaun Stribling (Ole Miss WR), Travis Burke (Memphis OT), Keyron Crawford (Auburn EDGE), Chris McClellan (Missouri DL), and Keyshaun Elliott (Arizona State LB), each climbing expert boards and drawing Falcons’ interest. 

Exploring how Stribling’s combination of size and speed could energize Atlanta’s receiver corps, the episode breaks down Burke’s swing tackle potential and draws parallels to Kaleb McGary’s development. Crawford brings explosive speed off the edge—just what the Falcons may need if James Pearce’s future is in question. McClellan offers run-stuffing upside as a nose tackle prospect, while Elliott’s athleticism and smarts position him as a possible green-dot middle linebacker. Which “sleepers” could define Atlanta’s next draft class and reshape the team’s outlook?
