And on top of that, we don't draft a TE at all nor another receiver until round 7. And, with nickel arguably being our biggest defensive need, we don't pick up a CB until round 6?

Ugh, not a good mock, sorry.

I put it together in like 5 minutes. You guys need to chill. I'm not the GM of the Falcons. I'm sorry if you don't like my made up hypothetical situation.

Rice is pretty explosive. Jenkins isn't all that, I think our running game will be fine without him. Rice, Devine, and Lockette is a decent amount of "Expolosion".

I contemplated the TE, but with Tony hanging on another year and Palmer looking good, I went with Matthews instead.

I don't see us drafting a CB early, maybe earlier than the 6th, but I doubt we do until the 4th. We have Franks and it looks like Owens has won the nickel job, whether it's deserved or not.

My main concern is our OL and that's what my draft focused on. I think our D is young, and growing. I don't see us revamping the whole D and with the possibility of losing half our OL, that's why it came out this way.
