**TRADE** Atlanta Falcons receives 2016 26th overall pick, 2016 3rd round pick (90th overall), 2016 7th round pick (223rd overall)
Seattle Seahawks receives 2016 17th overall pick
Round 1, 26th overall: DE Emmanuel Ogbah, Oklahoma State, 6’4 275 lbs
Seattle is clearly in win now mode and with few holes on their team and a number of draft picks, the Seahawks trade up with Quinn and the Falcons in their search to upgrade in the trenches.
Atlanta walks away with an extra third round pick, an extra seventh rounder, and one of the winners of the NFL Combine. Ogbah ran his 40-yard dash in an impressive 4.6 seconds to go along with 35 1/2 inch vertical as well as an outstanding broad jump of 10 feet and 1 inch.
He was considered a second round pick by many but Ogbah really raised some eyebrows and now Quinn has a defensive end to pair with athletic Vic Beasley to give the defense two ultra-athletic pass rushers. Ogbah still has some refining to apply to his overall game but a pass rusher at 6’4 and over 270 pounds with those type of workout results can be scary. In a division with Cam Newton and Jameis Winston for the next several years, a young duo of defensive ends can allow Atlanta stand tall against their division rivals.
