Full mock draft: Atlanta Falcons snag top wide receiver

The stakes are high for the Atlanta Falcons in the offseason

For a team like the Atlanta Falcons, there is a lot at stake with every decision that they make, especially in the draft.

This upcoming draft will be interesting because of the cap situation and the roster, do not be surprised to see Terry Fontenot trade back to get more picks so that he can fill out the roster. It should be a much different draft than this past year.

Then comes the situation at quarterback, is this the year when they look to find the eventual replacement for Matt Ryan? It certainly seems a lot more likely than it was the last offseason as you look at Ryan’s contract situation.

Past that the Falcons have holes on the offensive side at right tackle, wide receiver, and potentially running back depending on what happens with Cordarrelle Patterson. This does not even take into account the numerous holes on the defensive side.

For those saying that this needs to be a defensive heavy draft class, pump the brakes, the Falcons still have major holes on their offense, do not be surprised if they end up taking a skill player in the first round.
