We are just over one week away from the 2025 NFL Draft. The Atlanta Falcons likely already have most of their draft board completed and are prepared for as many different scenarios as possible.
However, they are still doing their due diligence of meeting with as many prospects as possible. That includes Georgia tight end Ben Yurosek and William & Mary offensive tackle Charles Grant, who have met with the Falcons on a top-30 visits, per NFL Network's Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero.
More visits:

-- William and Mary OL Charles Grant finished his 7-team tour with the #Falcons and #Raiders. Likely the second highest drafted FCS player after NDSU’s Grey Zabel.
-- #OSU DB Jordan Hancock is visiting the #Bears today.
More visits on the final day they're permitted before the draft:

A top-30 visit denotes one of the 30 prospect visits allowed for teams during the pre-draft period. The Falcons host prospects varying from potential first-round selections to those who go undrafted, providing them a glimpse into NFL life in Atlanta. Although no on-field workouts will occur, teams can utilize this opportunity to conduct meetings with coaching staff for film analysis, perform physical exams with team doctors, tour the facilities, and more.
Yurosek is a project player who could be selected in the seventh round or sign as an undrafted free agent. If Yurosek is going to carve out a career in the NFL, it will have to be as a solid blocker and special teams contributor.
He is a high motor player with good size at 6-foot-4 and 240 pounds who also plays with solid technique. If he's able to work his way onto a 53-man roster one day, he could be a sneaky receiving option at times, as he has good hands and runs routes with long strides.
Grant's athletic upside will land him somewhere in the mid-rounds. He is explosive off the line of scrimmage and has the quickness to hang with speedy pass rushers. The level of competition he faced in the CAA could be a concern, but Grant still has all the tools you want in an OT.
He could really excel in offenses with outside-zone heavy rushing attacks, which the Falcons do well. With Kaleb McGary entering the last year of his contract and Jake Matthews only signing a two-year extension, having a guy like Grant could pay off down the road.
