Falcons seven-round mock draft: Round 6, Picks 187 & 197

The Falcons take the late-round approach when trying to fill their future quarterback hole when Kirk Cousins moves on.

Joe Milton is a massive-armed quarterback who can sling the football. There is no better situation for Milton than sitting behind Kirk Cousins for a few years. He would be able to hone his accuracy and improve his timing as a passer.


The Falcons do what they have done for a couple of years in a row and take a developmental interior offensive lineman. Hunter Nourzad has the athleticism to play in this offense with Zach Robinson calling plays. For now, he would compete with JoVaughn Gwyn for a depth role.
