Round 2 – OT Antonio Richardson, Tennessee
Antonio “Tiny” Richardson is everything but what his nickname suggests. The Volunteer measures in at 6-6 327 lbs, and was a key member in one of the most prolific offensive lines in college football. Richardson was able to showcase his exceptional run blocking skills all year for Rajion Neal, and when drafted, will be a nice addition to a Falcons line desperately needing to improve in the run game. While Richardson could easily give Sam Baker a run for his money at LT, the Falcons will ease Richardson into the league by placing him at RT.
