ANALYSIS
Mayfield, a 2021 third-round pick, was the Falcons' starting left guard as a rookie but missed the entire 2022 campaign with a back injury. He's back to full strength this offseason and has been working at right guard and right tackle during OTAs. Mayfield won't be replacing Kaleb McGary or Chris Lindstrom as a starter on the right side of the line, so the Michigan product looks poised to serve as a versatile backup in 2023. Mayfield previously played right tackle in college.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2022
2021
Mayfield, a 2021 third-round pick, started 16 games at left guard as a rookie and figures to be a core part of Atlanta's offensive line moving forward. However, he may operate as the top backup with Elijah Wilkinson earning the majority of first-team reps during training camp.
Mayfield was selected in the second round of the 2021 NFL draft so it's likely he will see the field sooner rather than later. While he was an offensive tackle in college, his smaller reach makes him much more likely to be a guard at the next level. With Chris Lindstrom likely occupying the right guard spot for the foreseeable future, Mayfield should challenge Matt Gono for playing time. It may be tough for the rookie to see a starting role this season, but his draft status almost assures the 21-year-old will be a key reserve for the Falcons.
