Defensive End

Atlanta Might want to invest in a prototypical 3-4 defensive end.  Babineaux, Peters, and Malliciah Goodman are all very capable, but no one in the league is as good at that position as JJ Watt from Houston.  If Atlanta could find a guy in the mid rounds of the draft that has the speed or size as that guy, he could be developed into a great threat.  Last year, Margus Hunt was a great example.  Stephon Tuitt from Notre Dame could be that guy this year.
