5 Running backs the Atlanta Falcons could pair with Tyler Allgeier
By Nick Halden
5. Tank Bigsby
Watching how terribly the offensive line has played for Auburn over the last two seasons and the poor coaching Tank Bigsby has dealt with it isn’t hard to make the case in another programs Bigsby would be a clear day one pick. Tank doesn’t shy away from contact but for a player of his size has an incredible ability to plant and sprint in the opposite direction keeping the defense off balance.
Bigsby and Allgeier have completely different styles but would fit well together with Patterson retruning to a utility role. Patterson would still take handoffs but lineup all over the field just as he did in his first season.
Drafting a running back is Atlanta’s best path to making a strong unit signifcantly better while spending very little of their hard earned cap space on a position they already have the answer to.
