Falcons Snag Explosive WR Zachariah Branch

0:00It's April 25th. I'm Cory with the story. This is NFL News Today, driven by AI and built for football fans. The Atlanta Falcons just dropped a crowd pleaser in the 2026 NFL draft. Snagging Georgia wide receiver Zachariah Branch at the face-cara, 79th overall pick in the third round. They take in a hit to wide out this offseason, so grabbing this Athens standout makes perfect sense. He's one of the most explosive in his class and ready to ball out next season. Branch put up 8-11 receiving yards and six touchdowns for the Bulldogs last year, pairing nicely with that Clemson cornerback avion. To rail they took in round two. Falcons fans are hyped, calling it another smart move by GME and cutting him, especially since it plugs their biggest roster gap. The teams likely chilling for now, but they'll hit day three Saturday at noon Eastern with picks at 122, 215, and 2. 31. Keep an eye on how they wrapped this up.
