There is a very good chance that the Falcons could be in the market for a new starting middle linebacker for next season and that guy could be Kentrell Brothers of Missouri.

Brothers is the No.2 ranked inside linebacker in this years’ draft and is projected to be an early second round draft pick. If the Falcons have already let Paul Worrilow walk, Brothers will be very high on their radar and could be in Atlanta next season.

Brothers led the nation in tackles this season and would give the Falcons a much better option from the inside linebacker position than Worrilow.

Brothers will be one of the marquee players in this years’ Senior Bowl and is without a doubt the most important player you should be watching for. Out of all five of these players, Brothers is has the best chance of winding up in a Falcons’ uniform.
