Tori McElhaney analysis:The consensus among national analysts about Zion Logue is that he is more troublesome than his stat sheet might suggest. Despite his lack of sack numbers, he was a force to be reckoned with on Georgia's defensive front – a defensive front that produced several first-round picks during Logue's tenure with the Bulldogs.
As for Logue, he has emerged in his own way as a solid defender, especially in his final two years in Athens.
He has been mostly a rotation player, starting just 16 games and averaging about 25 snaps per game in 2023. However, he has had ample opportunities as a role player in 50 games over the course of his career.
Overall, Logue brings a size factor at 314 pounds that fits in well not only with Grady Jarrett and David Onyemata but also with the two new faces in his own class in Ruke Orhorhoro and Brandon Dorlus. The Falcons finished the 2024 NFL Draft class with a triple-double at defensive tackle.
