12:10 PM ET 03.09 | The Atlanta Falcons and safety William Moore have agreed on a five-year deal, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. Moore, 27, is one of the better safeties in the NFL, making him a top priority for the Falcons before the beginning of free agency on March 12. Moore had 75 tackles and four interceptions last season for the NFC South champions, quarterbacking a secondary that was one of the most talented in football. The University of Missouri product is excellent against the run and a ball-hawk as well, intercepting 11 passes over the past three years. The only knock on Moore has been his durability. In the past two seasons, Moore has only played 12 games each campaign due to a variety of injuries.
