In the 62 seasons since the Falcons came into existence:

• The first Georgia Bulldog ever drafted by the Falcons never played football at Georgia (Ray Jeffords-1968)
• The Falcons have had one Georgia QB play in a game (Preston Ridelhuber-1966). He never threw a pass
• The Falcons have had one Georgia RB play in a game (Verron Haynes - 2009). He never ran the ball.
• The Falcons have had one Georgia WR play in a game (Terrance Edwards-2003). He caught one pass for 10 yards.
• The Falcons have never drafted a Georgia offensive or defensive lineman.
• The Falcons have never drafted a Georgia wide receiver.
• A Georgia tailback has never played in an Atlanta Falcons game.
• On Sept. 23, 2007, TE Martrez Milner caught a 7 yard pass vs. Carolina, thus making him the first and only Georgia offensive player drafted by the Falcons to actually touch a ball in a game.
