There were few defenders more important to the complexion of the Atlanta Falcons' defense in 2025 than Brandon Dorlus. He hasn't been very discussed this offseason, but 2026 is going to be the season where Dorlus takes another step forward. In all honesty, he probably deserved his place in the Pro Bowl games last season, but Year 3 will offer him the opportunity to earn a long-term extension also. The veteran defensive tackle is becoming increasingly comfortable in his new role, which is making both the Pro Bowl and a return to the playoffs more possible than we realize. And if Atlanta is representing the NFC South in the playoffs, odds are that Dorlus is representing in Inglewood.
