Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
2022
2021
A 2021 fourth-round pick, Dalman took over as the Falcons' starting center in 2022 and hasn't looked back.
A 2021 fourth-round pick out of Stanford, Dalman took over as the starting center in 2022 after operating as a backup behind Matt Hennessy as a rookie. Dalman started all 17 games last year and is slated to reprise the same role in 2023.
Dalman was drafted by the Falcons in the fourth round of the 2021 NFL Draft and operated as the backup center to Matt Hennessy last year after losing the training-camp competition. However, the Stanford product is getting another shot at the starting gig, splitting time with Hennessy during training camp ahead of the 2022 season.
Atlanta selected Dalman in the fourth round of the 2021 NFL Draft to be a depth piece behind new starter Matthew Hennessy. Dalman likely won't be the immediate backup this season due to free-agent acquisition Josh Andrews who has much more experience at the NFL level. The rookie center has a lot of competition at his position so unless injuries threaten the team's depth, it would be surprising to see him on the field for any substantial amount of time.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Not likely to return to Atlanta
CAtlanta Falcons
March 4, 2025
The Falcons are preparing to lose Dalman in free agency, Dan Graziano and Jeremy Fowler of ESPN report.
ANALYSIS
Dalman is an elite center and is the clear top option at the position in free agency. He may not get a contract at the level of the four-year,$72 million deal Creed Humphrey got from Kansas City last August, but the market will likely price Dalman out of Atlanta's range. Ryan Neuzil is currently the next man up at center for the Falcons.
