The top center available on the free agent market this spring has agreed to a deal before teams can officially sign any contracts. Alex Mack will be leaving the lowly Cleveland Browns after six seasons with the team and joining the Atlanta Falcons.
The Falcons started 2015 5-0 and then they went on a dramatic tailspin, ending the season with an 8-8 record. As Roddy White departs the team, it now appears the Falcons will look to secure a position of need at center. Three-time Pro Bowl center Alex Mack fills that need perfectly.

Key to the Alex Mack deal with the #Falcons is the guarantee. Essentially, the first two years are fully guaranteed, with plenty in Year 3
