Mel Kiper released his most recent NFL mock draft and he has the Atlanta Falcons selecting OLB/DE Vic Beasley.


Mel Kiper has released his latest mock draft (4.0) and he has the Atlanta Falcons selecting Clemson’s Vic Beasley with the eighth overall pick.

"“He just said that he had guys like Bruce Irvin and other similar guys to me that could play that Leo position,” Beasley said, via ESPN.com. “That’s kind of where we connected right there. I fit the Leo position because a guy like Bruce Irvin, we’re similar body types. And we have similar games. We’re both great edge-rushers.”"

This is the second time that Kiper had Beasley going to the Falcons.
