I think you hit it pretty much on the head.

Only change I would make is no Ray Ray. For one he is garbage, but you could argue its a late round. Secondly he is a wannabe thug and I don't think he passes the TD character test...

After that really solid IMO. Tank is probably the only DE we can take at 30, so even though I'd rather trade up and get a guy like Moore or possibly Okafor, etc. I think Tank is a realistic option...

It is also debatable as to whether MLat lasts that long. I personally don't see him there at that pick, but who knows.

Like I said really solid job for the most part...

Not bad. I'd be surprised if Dimitroff doesn't grab a NT early though. Maybe switch Webb to a NT, then take a CB in round three since CB is really deep, and take a TE in round four if there's a solid one available. Or you could go LB but I like Pough. I really don't think the Falcons will draft a RB. JMO. Solid mock. I'll have to take a look at Webb. I haven't seen him mocked in round two before, but he could be a sleeper to watch out for. Dimitroff makes some interesting picks at corner (Jackson, Owens, Middleton). Franks was the only CB that I can remember who Dimitroff took where he was projected (a lot of people considered him a steal).

get rid of B.W. for a better CB and change the TE to a DT/NT and it would be perfect.

Personally I really like B.W. watched him in senior bowl and watched a little game on him thought he was a ball hawk willing to take risks... sometimes it burns him but I like a CB confident to jump routes...
