Report: Falcons making 'strong push' for Osi
Osi Umenyiora - DL - New York Giants
March 22, 2013 - 3:25 PM ET

ESPN's Adam Schefter reports the Falcons are making a "strong push" to sign free agent Osi Umenyiora.

If forced to guess right now, we'd project Osi to Atlanta, Elvis Dumervil to Baltimore, Dwight Freeney to Denver, and John Abraham to New England. Per Schefter, the Falcons are trying to wrap up a Umenyiora deal "before the end of the weekend." Umenyiora is 3 1/2 years younger than Abraham. He'd likely replace Abraham at right defensive end, with Kroy Biermann on the left side.
