Garnett is a tough, physical lineman with excellent size and agility to maneuver in the zone blocking scheme. He’s a mauler in the run game but his pass protection needs some work. Garnett also shows the ability to engage the defensive lineman and get to the second level of the defense to take on linebackers. The Falcons are in need of a couple of interior offensive linemen and taking Garnett will definitely provide some relief.

Other names to consider: TE Jerell Adams, DT Adolphus Washington, DT Sheldon Day
