3. CB Aaron Robinson (UCF)

Dean Pees loves to mix up coverages and make things hard on the opposing quarterback. That’s where Aaron Robinson could come into play.

Robinson was the feature slot cornerback for the UCF the past couple of seasons and he is one cornerback that has a lot of scouts talking as we get closer to draft time.

There’s still a wide consensus on where Robinson might fall in the draft (he could be around in Round 3), but there are many analysts who think he’ll be the first cornerback taken in the second-round.

Robinson has the ability to play outside and inside. He would add a quality piece to that defensive backfield and would be a guy who could come in and contribute right away. Addressing needs are important and Robinson absolutely would do just that for the Falcons.
