FLOWERY BRANCH, Ga. - After focusing on defense in the NFL draft, the Atlanta Falcons added more help on offense when they agreed to contracts with 20 college free agents on Monday.
The Falcons took four defensive players, including Clemson cornerback A.J. Terrell in the first round, among their six picks in the draft last Thursday to Saturday.
Atlanta announced agreements with three undrafted wide receivers on Monday: Juwan Green of Albany, Jalen McCleskey of Tulane and Chris Rowland of Tennessee State.
McCleskey transferred from Oklahoma State in 2018. His father, former NFL defensive back J.J. McCleskey, is Tulane's secondary coach.
The Falcons also reached deals with tight ends Jared Pinkney of Vanderbilt and Caleb Repp of Utah State. Pinkney is from Norcross High School near Atlanta.
The group includes five offensive linemen: Hunter Atkinson (Georgia State), Austin Capps (Arkansas), Scottie Dill (Memphis), Justin Gooseberry, Rice and Evin Ksiezarczyk (Buffalo). Atkinson, a four-year starter at Georgia State, is from Flowery Branch and West Hall High School.
South Dakota State fullback Mikey Daniel is the only running back in the group.
A trio of cornerbacks - Delrick Abrams of Colorado, Rojesterman Farris of Hawaii and Tyler Hall of Wyoming - will join what general manager Thomas Dimitroff rated as the Falcons' top priority position of the draft. The team also agreed to deals with defensive ends Austin Edwards of Ferris State and Bryson Young of Oregon and defensive tackles Hinwa Allieu of Nebraska-Kearney and Sailosi Latu of San Jose State.
The free-agent class also includes linebackers Ray Wilborn of Ball State and Jordan Williams of Baylor.
