Swoosh, that's a great analysis. One that I agree with about 95%. I believe that we are agreeing that Jordan isn't a top 15 pick, like others suggest. He does have potential, but it's huge potential. I mean, we are the Atlanta Falcons, and we are competing for the Super Bowl trophy every year, and we don't need to draft guys that are experimental, and could reach their potential three years from now. For every JPP, how many Anderson's, Mamula's, etc?

If Jordan lasted to the 2nd rd, then I'd be ok with the selection.

Give me Okafor over Jordan or Ansah.

2 questions here.

1) If all the top defensive prospects are gone by the time we pick, would Gio Bernard or Tyler Eifert be the better pick? Or is there someone else you guys feel would be worthy of the pick?

2) How do you guys feel about Eddie Lacy in the 2nd round? I honestly think he's a first round prospect, but that's probably my Alabama bias.

I believe picking a DE in rnd 2 would be 2 late. at pick 60-64 you got fo believe all the immediate impact DE's will be gone. If we r going to vo with a DE then we dont need another project end, we need sumone who will come in and make a impact. We already have 4 projects and only 1, at the moment is contributing.

I REALLY want Mike Gillislee. Maybe its just me, but I think Gillislee is an absolute stud. He runs, catches, and blocks superbly. Hes a late first round talent in my eyes.

I'd take Gillislee in the third for sure. Maybe the second with a good showing at the combine/Senior bowl.

Want to see this man in a Falcons uniform next season. Man crush right here. Would give our O-line some options which should hopefully create a better unit as a whole. You could basically have Konz-Hawley-Jones-Reynolds all battle for 2 spots. It would definitely create some good competition.

Levine Toilolo declared alongside his teammate Ertz. I have no idea why since he could have been a first rounder next year, but that only benefits teams. I really hope we snag him in the middle rounds.

Bernard, Eifert or the best available DE (in that order IMO) in the first would be perfect. People seem to criminally underrate Top RBs in drafts though, so I'm not sure if Bernard will still be around by the time we're picking but he'd be the best pick in my opinion.
